Safe or BB?

[Tim FTL]

Which do you prefer?

Personally I do not believe in "safe", but I do always fall on the side of "safer"

The majority of sex I have falls in the BB category. When I am bottoming it is less of an issue but topping is currently almost impossible with a condom.

Not into anal intercourse. Guess that's the safest choice of all.

Safe- if I can't top in a condom, then I can't top. But then the question always arises, ' What do you consider oral without a condom- especially for someone like me with gum inflammation?

 

I also have to say- and of course I never had sex until AIDs was already around, so it might not have ever occurred to me otherwise. But as a top, I'm not that thrilled at getting fecal material all over my penis.

 

But again I didn't start having sex until AIDs was around. I guess fecal material was just routine pain you put up with as a top prior to AIDs. In the same way I remember meeting an anatomy professor in grad school. He said they at one time used to do dissections on cadavers without gloves.

Safer (anal with a condom both ways).

 

Hiv is preventable, let's be responsible!

Ditto to the "safe or BB" question.......and I love the new signature BTW.

The question is not something I even think about.

 

+ No condom, no anal

+ In a car (wherever), wear a seatbelt. Coincidentally, a 22 year old I know was recently killed in an accident when thrown from a car. He was in the backseat and not wearing a seat belt as too many do.

+ Don't smoke cigarettes because they are more likely than not to kill you prematurely.

 

I've seen many people deal with advance stages of cancer, never someone dealing with AIDS. We know both to be horrific but sometimes seeing in person makes a difference. I've recently seen the family and friends of a 22 year old mourning a loss that most likely could have been avoided. If seeing someone (or their family) dealing with advanced stages of disease helps you make the decision originally posed, then go visit a ward where that's possible to see if that drives your decision. If you want to be reckless, in my opinion, you don't care about yourself/family/friends. Yes, there are risks in life but follow best practices and mitigate them. And if you unfortunately want to be reckless and can't currently personally afford the cost of your future medical care, change your spending habits and before food buy expensive health insurance with huge limits because I really prefer not to subsidize the cost to care for recklessness (cigarettes, BB, etc) and when you're near helpless but still alive you'll want and need people to care for you 24/7 and that cost is enormous.

 

I'll say this in closing. Always wear a seat belt, don't start smoking cigarettes and stop if you are, never BB, don't do oral if you see something odd on the other person or have a problem inside your mouth, get some moderate exercise everyday (good for your mind as well as your body), drink in moderation, see a doctor and dentist at least once a year and do what they tell you, eat some fruit and vegetables everyday, do an act of kindness everyday for someone you know and someone you don't (random stranger is good), drive like a nice person and hug a member of your family and/or a friend everyday and tell them what you think of them (if they aren't physically near you, text/email/call them).

All of them words to live by--but especially this.

Safe or GTFO. Nothing makes me softer in bed than someone whining "Come on! Just the tip. Please?!?". I've had to let some clients go due to this.

Why is this even a thread

Why is this even a thread

 

Because someone started it, and posters responded?

 

Or is your question really an oblique judgment?

[seeker630]

I prefer bareback, because I was sexually active pre-HIV but I DON"T bareback now. if I top, it's safely.

Its not a judgment on bareback/nonbarebacking (but I do have my opinion... fuck often and wrap it up). Regardless of personal preference it would be dumb for any escort to publicly state a preference for anything other than safe sex. To do so would be irresponsible, and potentially hurt the image of the escort community.

Xander, I am mostly in agreement with you, and I hadn't considered your point about the possible damage of an escort admitting to barebacking. (I confess, I forgot this question was posed in the 'ask an escort' section, since almost all the responses came from clients.) SO, if your real point was that no escort is likely to admit to it, then I misinterpreted your intent. Perhaps some clarification wouldhave helped.

 

However, there are escorts out there who advertise or at least don't hide the fact that they ARE willing to bareback. Dumb - who knows? I'm sure there is at least a niche/fetish market for that.

magnum xls are the greatest condoms ever! Not only do they fit my dick but they actually feel almost as good as bb. It is also a turn on to the client to see a guy who can actually wear one and roll it out all the way and it be snug instead of being embarrasingly loose and slipping off. I incorporate safe sex as part of my game and because I meet so many newbies, first timers and married clients I actually pride myself on being a safe sex teacher. One other benefit is that when I am with a little hottie I find that the mags do help me have more stamina and staying power. http://www.rentmen.com/mikeyusatop
