It was not my intention to describe your position on abstinence "as the only sure-fire way to avoid STDs" as a case of tilting at windmills.

What I intended to characterize as "tilting at windmills" is the position that abstinence can be practiced by everyone under all circumstances. You can try to convince drug addicts to practice abstinence all you want, but you aren't likely to get many takers.

Perhaps you haven't taken the position that abstinence can be practiced by everyone under all circumstances. If indeed this is your position, then I say you're tilting at windmills.
