well Deej, zipper and to the rest of you normal people, thanks for your replies, and thanks for being quite normal. Its a trait that apparently alot of people in this world have forgotten or just havent learned.

I believe you done the correct thing, by stopping there and then....The client in my opinion was 100% wrong for not first of all talking to you about what he likes and does not like, what he will allow and will not..but more importantly he should have shown more respect to you and asked you before the session started what you will or will not do....Communication is very very important no matter what we are doing...a mis-understanding could lead to a major problem when it could have been avoided from the start.......I know when we (the client) are in the company of such sexy hunks (like yourself) we tend to use the wrong head before thinking....I do believe it is up to both parties to talk things out first before we go any further......Respect is a 2 way street and we as the clients need to show that respect by taking the first step.....

There are no certainties. A small cut or sore in the mouth/gums (that you may not even know about) presents a LOT of opportunity for transmission either way.

 

That's why I always say that there is ALWAYS risk. It may be small, but it's always there.

I think you handled things fine. It is understandable to be a bit nervous when faced with something like that and you did the fair thing by your client.

 

It is also understandable to want to ask questions here since it is a gay forum and there are a number of doctors here who can correct any misconceptions about this issue.

If Craigslist is to be trusted (not) then the 3rd floor men's room is very busy.

 

Given the number of army uniforms in the area that could be worth an inspection. }(

Exactly. Sex is sex and it all has the same consequences. Know your limits and stick to them, every time.

Sorry if I ofend anyone and I know I will; you

were off with a customer who said what he

preferred, bareback or not. I think you should

either honor that or let him know up front. Rocky

Now don't be calling Hawk names!

Let him know what "up front"? That he is a complete and total asshole to ask someone else to bareback with him? Are you fucking serious? Do you really think that a client is entitled to bareback with an escort because he paid him?

thank you.

With everyone and their opinions it all boils down to this. It is not about safe, unsafe, this statistic or that statistic. It is about YOUR life or death. Choose life. Don't be one to sit in front of the doctor as you are told "the news" that we all want to avoid and wonder "if only". In all situations do the right thing and you will never go wrong. Trust me on this.

[jawjateck]

You use the same principle that I do. If a situation is unnerving and something doesn't "feel right", then trust your instincts. Your conscience is a good guide. It can overreact and be wrong, but it's a reliable protector.

 

Most escorts I have been with are safety-conscious guys, but occasionally I meet a guy who gives me the option, wrapped or unwrapped. It's freaky to hear that. Earlier in my hiring days that would automatically mean no fucking, but now, I'm not as intimidated by it, as long as the guy wraps. Even though he may offer the option, I assume that he is HIV+ like every other escort too. If I meet you, I will assume you are infected too, even though you are a safety-conscious guy. It's wisdom.

 

Your lack of health information and risk factors should be your higher concern, more than how you may have treated that one client. Get the facts, and when possessing the right info, you will be able to handle your clients professionally, regardless of the situation. Bottom line: always play safe and always do what's right for you.
