Advice on escorts and STD's

Ah ok, thanks for the info. So Protected anal (both insertive and receptive) therefore has an extremely low chance of transmission then? I have no plan on 'bonking' haha

PrEP alone or Condoms alone have in the neighborhood of 92% effectness (some would say higher and others would say lower). That means each affords a protection that lowers the unprotected rate of transmission by 92%. The probability of transmission via one anal receptive encounter with an HIV infected person is (as we said before) 0.0138 . Notice that the number 0.0011 is 92% lower than 0.0138. So, if you are anally penetrated on once occassion by an HIV infected person wearing a condom, the probability that you acquired HIV is 0.11%. Whether that's high or low is up to you to decide, but its certainly a lot better than the 1.38% chance without protection.

Now suppose you have protected (with a condom) anal receptive sex with a random person from the UK. Then the probability of acquiring HIV is (98400/63M)(0.0011) = 0.00000172 -> 0.00017%. That’s pretty good, even in the long run.

Let’s figure, as you do in your post, that someone is bonked by three random people daily. That 7665 bonks per year.

One of my hidden assumptions was that only planet Earth was taken into consideration.

Why would you hide an assumption like that? This changes everything!

That's why I decided to unveal it.

Use condoms and you should be fine. If you do see any sores, then politely decline. Its not different then having sex with anyone you don't know. Now a lot of medical professionals will say escorts are much safer than women you would regularly meet because many do test and are informed about their health.

So relax and try if it has peek your interest and go with someone reputable so you know what you are getting.

Most importantly, when you are sexually active, be open an honest with your medical care provider and if you feel that you cannot be open with them, then find someone who you can. Be vigilante and be active in your testing, even if your risk is low. An informed medical provider will tell what you need to test for, because depending on what you are doing sexually, you don't need to worry about everything.

Don't risk it. Most of the escorts have some sort of disease. Don't take their word for it, most of them lie just to make some money. Have you been vaccinated from hpv or hepatitis a or hepatitis b?

Sorry, risk what? I wasn't planning on not using protection.

I'm honestly not sure obviously had all the baby ones and one recently within the last 3-5 years.

Also, I believe there are now antigen tests that can detect HIV in a couple of weeks.

Little guy, on what evidence and facts do you base your statement 'that most girls are diseased'?I'm always interested in how people come up with such information .How do they know - or it just speculation?
I think one has to be very careful not to make sweeping generalisations .

Because their job is to have sex with strangers every day... Of course they're going to be diseased. You're pretty naive if you're going into encounters thinking that they're completely healthy.

Also think about some of the types of people who visit escorts. I'm not saying everyone here are unclean or whatever, but naturally with such a high number of sexual partners; they're going to be sleeping with guys who aren't cautious about safe sex practices.

+ (and this is really a generlisation however) thai girls are renowned for not having the same approach to safe sex as we are here. I suspect partly due to social reasons (apparently it is seen as un-manly to use condoms there); and educational reasons (unaware of some of the dangers of having unprotected sex).

Just like if you're a racing driver - you drive cars more so are more likely to have a crash than the average person; if you work in the sex industry you will be having more sex and so are more likely to get diseases than the average person.
