The map included in the CDC article would seem to indicate that is true. PS: I corrected my original post, as my intent was to say one was at greater risk in certain locales, not that certain locales posed a greater risk.

Welcome to the Forum, @Bigginuc. You are not being stupid for worrying about this, but I think the worry is unfounded. To me, it is grounded in FEAR: False Evidence Appearing Real. My experience is the overwhelming majority of escorts I've hired are nice and respectful. That's not to say many behave differently, but it seems like the jerks are in the minority. Here are a few ways you can determine whether someone is nice/respectful or not: Read and pay attention to his ad. If the tone feels "off" or conveys a less-than-friendly vibe, take a pass. Pay attention to the tone of his replies. Almost all of the guys I've had great experiences with have taken the time to provide well-written and obviously well thought-out replies to my inquiries. Those who have been more brief have used a professional tone. Be honest about your situation. If this is your first time with an escort, say so. Likewise, if you have limited man-on-man experience say so. It will help the escort.

Ha! No. I'm sensitive to scent and to the ingredients in detergent. While I like the two Mrs Myers products I mentioned, their detergent and liquid fabric softener is so overpowering it makes me nauseous. Or is it nauseated?

I always put one of those microfiber plush blankets on top of the sheets. They are soft and you can get 'em at Penney's for $15 on sale. Practically disposable! Another option: the "blankets" my Aunt Val crocheted back in the '70's. The yarn was 100% polyester. You could pour concrete on them and it would come right off.

On a regular basis I put my pillows in the dryer on "low" for 20 minutes and they get all light and fluffy. I recommend using Mrs Myers lavender or basil scented dryer sheets. Very nice, natural scent. Another tip: the little lavender sachets from Trader Joe's. Thanks for the tip. Percale sheets are hard to find. Sateen has taken over. Another tip: When you wash the sheets, use unscented laundry detergent (I like Method) and add a couple of shakes of Mrs Myers laundry scent crystals.

Quick question: Did the flyers actually say "homosexuals?" Forgive me for being a stickler, but they typically refer to "men who have sex with men" and/or "gay and bisexual men." You might be surprised to learn that San Francisco did not make the list of top 10 US cities by HIV infection rate (it was #21) published by HIV Plus magazine. Additionally, you might be surprised that California, New York, and Illinois have a lower rate of HIV infection and individuals in those three states are at a lower risk of infection than individuals are in several Southern states according to the CDC.

Hope - Springing eternal since 1734.

Regardless where they are based, political tidal change is but an election away.

The site of which we doth not speaketh

Wait, wait...next thing you know you'll be telling us @tyro and @quoththeraven are also female.

No info, but damn - hot guy!

Nope. Never. Not in this century nor in the last. The closest was a female coworker who wouldn't take "no" for an answer. Several coworkers, including her manager, complained (as did I) to HR and she was fired.

Technically, you would not fuck that ignorant dumb ass mother fucker.

Thou art right! the language shalt nev'r changeth!

He may diagram my sentence, conjugate my verb, and dangle his participle in the vicinity of my orifices any day of the week.

My guess is you are replying to my post, quoted below: One does not need to assume anything regarding STI status in order to determine the precautions one chooses to take. It is very simple - you choose the type of protection you use. Regarding someone not telling me he is HIV+, If he does not tell me he is HIV+ I don't know whether he is HIV+ or HIV-. Again, no assumption required. I know what kind of precautions I take and take them.

No information except for a link to his ad.

Yes, I would set up a session and would engage in the same activities I do with anyone else. Although I don't subscribe to the notion of assuming everyone is HIV+, I still take the same precautions with everyone. Additionally, when someone tells me he is HIV+ I know his status because not many guys who are negative say they are positive.

You are welcome. Let us know how it goes if you decide to hire him.

Can't speak for everyone, but I think he is still good-looking.

It is him. Although I haven't hired him, yet, when I chatted with him the last time he was escorting he shared then-current photos that looked like the Playgirl and Men Magazine photos twenty years later. EDIT:What I intended to say was "He shared then-current pictures of himself that were obviously of the same guy, but taken 20 years later." Here is a link to his ad.

You could use them as blow-job pillows. What better way to pad your knees?

Ever since down started triggering my asthma, I've used "down alternative" pillows. My favorite is the "Dream Comfort Luxury Down Alternative" from Martha Stewart at Macy's. I buy them when they are on sale for ~$30.

Ha! No, but I like him already.
