Barebacking

[lifeisfiction]

It happens and for me it has happen with both tg and gg. I use to see escorts quite a bit, but not so much these days. The best thing I can recommend is to bring your own condoms and don't rely on the person for condoms. I have been asked flat out for bb or they will say I'm ready with no condom in hand. Either I would have to ask them to get the condom or I would have to walk across the room to my pants to fetch my own condoms. From my experience those that offer bareback don't offer it to everyone and it is sometimes offered after a few visits, but it creeps me out when it does. Be diligent about your health. As long as you use a condom and there are no issues with it you are not going to get any stds.

Truvada can add a extra layer of protection, but you would be a fool to believe Wes that it's sufficient by itself.

I will say that I have had a few broken condoms. The worst situation was a gg provider who was fully aware the condom had broken and let me finished in her without even telling me. You can guess I was pissed, because I don't want to have pay child support or get a std. At least everything turned out alright. That's why I think truvada can add a layer of protection.

More than anything, this tells me something about you. As an attractive guy who got started young in the scene, I've been offered bareback dozens of times. I've even had a handful of girls force the issue and sit on my uncovered cock after I had declined bb.

Yea i would say i have been offered at least 4-5 times over the past 5 years, also had one girl sit on me uncovered, scared the hell out of me i remember that next clinic visit was devastating...

It is disturbing. I have been offered bareback a small number of times. I would say about 20% of the time. But I will never forget that one girl who was so insistent and pushy about it that I had to walk out.
I will also never forget the other time when I was so caught up in the moment with this hottie that I allowed her to ride me bareback. I won't forget how anxious I was the next few months waiting for the test results from the clinic. Bareback really isn't worth it unless its with a partner that you are seeing exclusively.

I should mention that none of those experiences were with escorts. I have seen two escorts and neither offered bareback.

I was offered a suggestion by a Tgirl escort to go together to a clinic, get tested and then have bareback sex. What are the thoughts on this? Still too risky?

Setting aside the risks for a min, I'm curious as to how that would actually work anyway. Go to an NHS clinic and you'd have to wait a while before getting the test results. Results would effectively be invalid if any sexual activity took place between testing and obtaining results, so you'd have to pay for her being unable to work for that period of time. I don't know if private clinics offer same day results, but even then you'd probably be forking out for her time to be tested and the cost of the tests for both of you. 10 min of bareback sex would end up costing you way more than the normal £150 for an hour.

Laphroaig, as usual, you bring up some very valid points. Yes, there would have to be immediate confirmation for both parties and then off to the bed room together. Is immediate confirmation possible? I don't know. I do know when I was tested by my NHS clinic three years ago they were able to tell me right away that I didn't have AIDS but I don't know what else they tested for. I only brought this up because it was suggested (and I don't know how seriously actually) by the Tgirl herself.

Not personally, but I have heard of similar proposals before, struggling to remember where though at the moment.

There was one (gg or ts, I don't remember) claiming to have a home sti test kit, which she'd check you on before sex. I'd trust that about as much as the pregnancy test kits in Poundland...

I think another important thing to remember is the accuracy of the tests. The rapid HIV test is 95% accurate at 28 days after exposure. Could you imagine the accuracy if either one of the participants was exposed 7 days earlier. In a lot of cases, 3 months is more the norm to get an accurate test. That is why they recommend testing 3 months after an exposure, it is the most accurate results.

The rapid test is not worth the gamble in my opinion.

Unfortunately bareback sex can be very risky. But in my personal opinion bareback sex is the best. When I have been with an escort and offered bareback sex I have always declined. Well, not always but most of the time. There have been a few times when I was just so into a girl that I gave in and bottomed for them bareback. Thankfully I never caught anything. I have also had a few long term relationships with vers girls and I have bottomed and topped bareback with them. So far so good with STD's

Dunno about UK, but here we have the lab, you go, get tested, then they give you the code thingy, you go in the next day (or was it 2 days) scan it, it prints out the results and that's it.

However, there is some stuff, like HIV that could take up to a month or more to show up in the blood... so if it's with escort it's still high risk low reward type of affair. so I would recommend against it.

Back in the day I actually had unprotected sex once (not with the escort, but a one night type of thing) and afterwards I got a slight cold and thought that I'm done, I don't wish anyone to feel like that. Luckily it came back all negative. (did re-test after a while as well just to be sure)
