99% of ts's are hookers, NO! but 1 in 4 TS escorts HIV+

All the above quoted studies prove that poverty and HIV are linked and nothing more. Read the abstracts. All the participants in those studies were girls who had to use county health care and aids prevention services. Those are typically the girls who work the streets, who don't have the resources to provide their own health care and testing, and who more often are involved with street drugs. For them, sadly, higher HIV rates are just one of the many adversities they face.

Higher level escorts generally have more money and better resources for their health care needs. They are probably better educated and less likely to engage in risky behaviors, and less likely to engage in other behaviors, like street drug use, that can impair their judgment and provide another vector for infection.

With all that being said, giving ANYONE a bare back blow job is just foolish. It may be safer than anal sex, but it is not a behavior without risk. If you want to assure your health and well being, you should regulate your own behavior not make blanket statements about dictating others' behaviors.

Lookee here: Those who refuse to accept the high numbers of transgendered sex workers infected with HIV also refuse basic understanding of the disease and sexual behaviour, paid and otherwise.

The AIDS virus is spread via certian body fluids, with blood and sperm the highest vectors for transmission. Thus anyone who comes into frequent contact with either or both is at risk for infection. Depending upon whom one has sex with, and how often,one's chances of infection are either nil, or very great.

Prostitutes (am calling it what it straight up is, no-where in the United States,much less the world will one find laws regarding "escorting", or "escorts", if one takes money in exchange for sex it is what it is), especially those who engage in gay male sex will have higher than average rates of HIV infection , than the average population. The same applies for men who engage in gay male sex, which is the reason why the question is asked before one can donate blood.

When AIDs first came on the scene, gays, trannies and most everyone else was slapping on condoms. However twenty years on consistent condom use is falling by the wayside. Why? For the same reason men have traditionally chosen not to wear the things, they don't like how it feels.

The above poses a problem when it comes to prostitutes, and indeed sex with someone a person is really hot to sleep with. If the man demands sex, oral, anal, vaginal, whatever; without a condom, if you want and or need that money, and or are really attracted to that person and want sex with him, you probably are going to do what he says.

There are many posts here of t-girls so hot for the garage guy who is fixing their car, to a hot young "papi" they willingly have sex without condoms. One poster wrote in great detail about performing oral sex to it's natural end, and digesting body fluids.

While the risk of AIDs via oral is low, it is not nil, especially if one has numerous such contacts on a daily, weekly or monthly basis as by nature "escorts" must do.

Also factor in by and large trannie chasers do NOT like using condoms. Add this to the number of various girls some chasers have slept with, and you have the numbers of HIV infected T-girls one sees reported above. So many girls think because a man is young, goodlooking and such that he cannot be infected. The bottom line is you don't know where that man has been. His trade could have been up a homeless person's behind, or with some clapped out $2 prossie before he came to you.

As with most everything else in the United States, race and soci-economic background comes into play with AIDS as well. Your average hood-trannie trying to survive, just like the hood-rat prossie has little or no leverage when it comes to dates. They need money, and more likely than not will do what a date says regardless how of dangerous it can be to their health to get at that money.

New York City, though it's "community courts" has been mandating HIV education for all persons convicted of "escorting", and the results are pretty dismal for the most part. The same girls are arrested time and time again, and treat the course as just one more thing to get done before they hit the streets again. They are thankful for the free condoms and such, but reality on the ground is different they say.

Within the white gay community, AIDS levels have for the most part declined, but lately have been edging up, especially amoung younger gays.

What one has now is that AIDS like many other diseases is becoming one of those communites filled with poverty, ignorance and poor health care.

As I stated before, there are large numbers of blk and latino men having "gay" sex (including with trannies), on the down low. Well they aren't having sex with high end (or those who consider themselves such), trannies, for one reason most will not date black or latin men anyway. By and large they are having sex within their home area with other men or trannies. This rather inbred pool of disease allows AIDs to take hold firmly within a community and spread. As these same men also sleep with women, the pool spreads as these now infected women (many who do not know they are infected), sleep with other men and spread the disease further within the community.

I remember reading one of the TS escort sites and I was SHOCKED about how many of the clients insisted on BB BJ's and swallowing the escorts cum?? I posted on the message board the dangers of this practice but it was removed immediately.

I would love to know how many of the guys who see TS escorts but identify themselves as "STR8" have ever been tested for HIV?? I bet you the number is low.

[/quote]I know of many more than just 5 silly.Its just we as ts take better care of ourselves more than you guys give us credit for. I say EVERYBODY is at risk and gender identity does not make us more or less at risk. How many yourng females have HIV at the age of 15. Now thats sad, and the number is much higher than you think. HIV essists, and its not a joke. But don't pin the spread on us exclusivly, thats all I'm saying.[/quote]


Bringing up the risk of 15 year old girls having HIV and that of prostitutes in the same breath is not only silly but malicious in the it misleads Joe Schmoe as to what the real danger is. Of HIV documented cases in the U.S, about 0.5% involves teenagers. There has only been 4,061 cases of teenagers aquiring HIV up to the year 2000. 5000 teenagers each year die in car accidents. The risk acquiring HIV from a teenager is practically nil.

http://www.car-accidents.com/teen-car-accidents.html

This added risk has nothing to do with gender identity and everything to do with lifestyle and profession. Most of the prostitutes posting on this thread have "not me" syndrome. Just crunch the numbers. Think about the number of clients, what kinds of high risk behaviors they might have engaged in, how often condoms break if they are used, and what condoms don't protect against. I don't care how much more careful you believe you are or how much smarter you think you are than everyone before you. You roll the dice enough times and shit happens.

So your sexual health is the responsibility of a prostitute who doesn't know you and is just trying to pay rent & meds?

How about NOT!?!?!?

I've said it 1000 times, if you can't take the heat stay outta the kitchen. If you have alot of sex with escorts you WILL get something. Ranging from crabs to herpes to syphillis to Aids. Yes, and that is using condoms 100% of the time.

If you aren't mentally prepared for that and very careful about your cleanup activities then get the hell outta the game.

http://www.yescenter.org/HIVAIDS_Risk_Factors_Among.pdf......i hope this link works i've never posted one before but i also came across a lot more interesting studies that i should have bookmarked................ it works so i'll post some more soon.

TS Escort opinion = little risk, come pay me for fun.
Reality = you have a 1 in 4 chance of being infected with something that could KILL you quickly.

Is it worth it?

I'm guessing you don't work for a Vegas Sports book?? LOL

If, and its a very big IF, 1 escort in 4 were actually HIV positive, your odds of getting aids are not 1 in 4. If you use a rubber, your odds are more like like one in several hundred thousand. Compare that to the odds of dying in a car crash at 100 to 1, orr the odds of being murdered at 300 to 1 or the odds of dying in a fire arms accident at 2500 to 1. Your odds of being hit by a comet or asteroid are less at 20,000 to 1. Despite those scary probabilities, you probably still drive, still have a gun and don't live in an reinforced concrete bunker.

Be informed, be careful and be sure to only play safe and the odds are with you, not against you.

Here is an interesting site everyone should read,

And then after all this, remember...

My ex- next door neighbor, a nice married man, rolled out of bed one night, slipped and broke his neck and died.

Hugs,
