On two occasions I’ve had escorts tell me they had an STI “in the butt” (one chlamydia the other gonorrhea). Does that qualification mean anything? I declined the opportunity to meet up, but if I hadn’t I would expect to be at risk unless I used a condom for both oral and anal sex with him. My research found nothing on this subject, but if it’s “in the butt” the risk isn’t limited to that hole is it?

Not a doctor but I think since they are bacterial infections they could be transmitted to you if not careful; sure the condom is a barrier of protection but if someone told me they had an sti I probably would refrain from sex. Just my opinion...

That's good of them to tell you. Kudos to them for being responsible and honest :)

Over twenty years ago I once got chlamydia from a blow job. And when I was younger and very sexually active in my SF years I used to get a routine oral culture swab to check for STD's when I got my other tests as well since I love to suck cock! My doctors had told me any warm moist hole. ??

I would take that as a way to reject you without saying "no" to you.

I got the clap once in my ass back in the 1970’s before gays used condoms. HIV/Aids was still in the future. I was alerted to it when I saw a pus-like discharge on my bm’s. No pain or discomfort, unlike penile clap when you piss. I remember my doctor prescribing a course of tetracycline antibiotics which I took for 10 days. That cleared it up. And yes, sex not advised until you are cured.

I don’t think you can equate the clap with HIV. There is a simple cure for one but no cure, only treatment, for the other.

 

My point was that by going prep-no condom you're knowingly exposing yourself to other STIs besides HIV. It's pretty jarring to say that you're fine with STIs as long as there's a cure.

If you've ever seen a case of anorectal cancer, or even bad HPV, you might not be so quick to dismiss condoms, although they're no foolproof protection for HPV. If someone has GC in the rectum, he may have it in the throat and penis as well. Wait until treatment's over.

Please, for the love of all that's holy, have mercy on our souls and delete that photo so that others don't need to suffer as I have having seen it.

As Unicorn so correctly stated HPV can cause terrible diseases. The presence of GC or Chlamydia in the rectum may be transmitted to any mucosal surface of the sexual partner who gets in the area. So he may have it in the butt, but you may get it in the throat, in the mouth, or even in the recturm should you be exposed in some way. Why an escort would tell you he has an STI rather than getting it treated is a bit strange. It seems a degrading way of rejecting a partner if that was indeed the intent. Best stay clear. Condoms offer protection from more than just HIV as that graphic picture points out.

Hmm, where does it state that the escort isn’t getting treated?! ? These guys are both responsible and were getting it treated. That being said, your other comments are helpful.

Yes, both Chlamydia and Gonorrhea are localized. Therefore, I suspect that his disclosure was to say that you should not top him, particularly not bareback. But if he really only had it rectally, then he could top you and would not transmit to you, or you could have oral sex with each other and not be at risk.

 

It is a good point to make regarding going for testing. If your doctor does not know you well or know your types of sexual contact, many doctors would generally only test a guy by a urine test, and not a throat swab or rectal swab. If you are not comfortable asking for those tests from your own doctor, consider going to public/annonymous testing sites.

Echoing this. Gonorrha and chlamydia are specific to the hole the bacteria have infected. I just want to be doubly clear: you need to get all the holes you use tested for all the STDs (edit: limited to localized infections, like gonorrhea, chlamydia, trichomoniasis, etc.). I had a doctor (a friggin' doctor!) argue with me once that my throat/anal swabs were unnecessary because if I had anything it would come up on the UA.

 

Excuse me -- how would bacteria in my throat find themselves all the way down in my urethra? Same question for anal bacteria. People, man.

Many thanks for your input.?

This is why I'll never understand the prep bareback crowd.

 

Just apply the understanding with the straight “birth control pill”, bareback crowd, and it will possibly give you a better understanding.

 

It’s a human form of rationalization, where one is willing to take one “gamble”, since the other major “gamble”, is no longer a factor.

 

So just like straight people go bareback and risk contracting “cureable”, STDs, because the “pill”, eliminates the risk of pregnancy, gays go bareback and risk contracting those same STDs because the PrEP pill eliminates the risk of HIV transmission.

Dude,

 

Contracting STDs is not like catching the common cold.... when they are “cured”, they can have long-lasting-effects to the body and the immune system, especially as some STDs have symptoms that don’t surface immediately.

 

To continuously contract STDs and nonchalantly get them cured is not advisable.

I personally know of two guys who are promiscuous ,“allergic” to condoms, have casually contracted and recovered from numerous STDs for at least 20 years and chalked it up as simply an “activity-based-hazard”, from being sexual.

 

We are now in our 40s, and both of them suffer from non-describable-auto-immune diseases, that has phases of affecting them greatly.

 

They can’t tell me that the consistent abuse to their cells, and organs from regularly transmitting STDs did not impact them in some kind of way.

I totally get your POV but not many feel comfortable or reach a good level of performance using condoms, and no, for some it's not a matter of selfish seek for pleasure. I must agree with @Luv2play that while not desirable, and different from HIV, most STIs are easier to get rid of in a shorter period of time and as long as one is selective when choosing sex partners (i.e. avoiding people into riskier sex practices) one is at low risk now that PrEP is on the market. My Dr told me that the spike in STIs when PrEP was launched wasn't correlated to PrEP itself but more with Drug Abuse, and that more safety is achieved when having an honest upfront conversation with your partner.

@Unicorn please don't. Just post the external link to the picture. PLEASE ?

Because he knew one could do ass to mouth or kissing at the same time as oral?

PS: This is part joke, part assumption, and part question.
