Safe Sex Information and Advice

Not sure what you are asking. The last two bars on the bottom of that bar chart are indeed for white and Hispanic women for heterosexual contact.

If you wish to know the risk in your area it is best to look at you state's annual HIV / AIDS Surveillance report. That should have specific statistics on women and race. Tell me what state that is and I'll take a look for you.

I meant to say that I did not see a category for white male (heterosexual contact).

Thanks for the post. Interesting. I didn't see any statistics for white, Hispanic or other heterosexual contact.

Always best to be armed with the facts:

https://wwwn.cdc.gov/hivrisk/transmi.../oral_sex.html

And remember, you guys should be getting tested as often as us ladies, the recommendation being every 3 months. It is the general consensus that one cannot detect an infection any sooner (ie. Texting every month), unless you are experiencing observable symptoms.

Thanks for sharing those links / statistics on Oral transmission of HIV! Important information that everyone should read and understand. Too many "myths" out there and people posting opinions that are not supported by the facts.

As far as frequency of testing goes, 3-months should catch everyone, but be aware that antigen / antibody tests run by a laboratory can detect HIV as early as 18 days and maybe as late as 45 days. So getting tested via the lab route ever 2-months would be more protective. (see attached).

But also be aware that if one thinks they may have been exposed to HIV, DO NOT WAIT! Go see a doctor, as within 72- hours there is something like a "morning after pill!" It is called PreP. Prep is a cocktail of anti-retrovirus drugs. Taking a course of these drugs can prevent the HIV from taking hold!

So. Who is most likely to have HIV?

What are the most risky populations?

https://www.cdc.gov/hiv/basics/statistics.html

In the whole USA, in ALL of 2016 only 1032 new cases of HIV infection among white women! That versus 4189 cases in Black Women.

Thanks for the post. Interesting. I didn't see any statistics for white, Hispanic or other heterosexual contact.

Yes Sir there is a ginormous risk with a BBBJ!! See IV drug users are prone to developing canker sores in their mouth which creates opportunity for transmission of HIV and Hepatitis!! So always be careful about who you let do it amd always pay close attention to signs of needle use!!

Also herpes hsv-1 and hsv-2. 1 out of 6 in USA have herpes. Most no symptoms. So do have lesions and pain from it.

[UtrLvr41]

Risk associated with dreaming about BBBJ? Are there any, really?

This chart, from the CDC, shows the transmission categories for HIV infection. Those working off of "old information" assume that the rate is high. It was in the 1990's, but with needle exchange programs and education, that form of transmission has dropped to VERY low levels!

Not sure if this is the right forum to ask but I figure I'd get more honest answers here than over at TNA. So admin / mod please delete if this is inappropriate.

Would you guys BBFS a provider you suspected of being an IV drug user? No judgement, just opinions on why or why not or the thought process behind it.

I guess the risk profile would depend on whether she shares needles, shares dope or BBFS other hobbyists. And I guess we are dealing with HIV and / or other STDs.

Thanks!

P.S.: this is NOT regarding a particular provider but just in general.

Sigh, the below replies are not surprising, as before I did much research and started asking health care professionals to verify my findings, I though the same thing.

First, everyone assumes that needle sharing is rampant. It "could" be. But before assuming that, check and see if your state or local government permits / has needle exchange programs. I know in my state there are needle exchange programs and all of the girls that have a need know what day and time those exchanges are open and most head there. Just because one is addicted, doesn't mean that they are stupid or have a death wish. Most girls know about HIV and that it "can be" spread by sharing needles, so most have changed their behaviors and DO NOT share needles.

Second, look at your state's Annual HIV / AIDS Surveillance Report. There one should see tables or charts of causes of HIV transmission: (see attached table).

The table shows that the risk of People Who Inject Drugs (PWID) of transmission is relatively low. I attached Philly's info as it was the fastest I could get to but each state is required to provide to the CDC and also publish an annual HIV / AIDS report, so specific info for your area should be available. Table shows that of NEW cases each year, the method of transmission of HIV was 11% (2012) and now has dropped in half (2016). And with the transmission risk being 5. 5% relatively low (one-tenth), especially compared to Men who have sex with men 56%! So to assume all IV drug users are transmitting HIV rapidly is old school thinking and not supported by recent data.

Next let me comment on having to wait 8 weeks to detect HIV. Again this was true in the 1990's when awareness started and the technology that existed was antibody tests. But technology moves on and there are now antigen tests that can detect fragments of HIV as soon as 10 days. Some test sites use a combination of antigen / antibody tests, so IF timing is important to you, then seek out a site that includes antigen testing.

Yes, the risk of transmission of HIV from female to males is very low, see the chart here:

https://wwwn.cdc.gov/hivrisk/estimator.html

Point being that the skin was designed as a decent barrier and HIV needs to "get inside" in order to replicate and cause AIDS. If your junk is free of cuts, scarps, rashes, rubbed / raw, chaffed skin then F2M transmission should be very low!

OP have postulated that one should examine a girl for track marks, etc. No one can "tell" if a girl is clean just by looking! Addicts are great at hiding their addictions: inject them selves in hidden places you wouldn't think to look. But also, can a lay person with little or no technical training tell the difference between a skin tag and genital warts or some other sign of infection?

The point is that you need to ASK a girl her status and study her reaction as she provides it. I think most people are truthful about such things. It takes a pretty callous person to knowingly have an STD and agree to BBFS and infect another.

But the question was about IV Drug Users. The problem with addicts isn't needle sharing, it is the ADDICTION! When one is Jonesing they NEED a fix, most will do just about anything to get that fix. SO therein lies the risk. They will have sex with anyone to get the fix. So if a girl is desperate and Jonesing when you see her, she probably will lie, in order to get her meds. But I have seen high functioning addicts who aren't on the streets, who plan their days and are able to get the money for their meds before it is a problem. Those girls can choose who to BBFS with and don't have to take anyone who comes along.

Look the bottom line is the BBFS is about RISK how one perceives it, how one manages it. See my discussion of risk here:

Some of the above stuff & more was discussed in that post as well:

I don't BBFS with a provider that doesn't look clean or if they have evidence of drug use. Just not worth it if you know they are extra high risk. For example, saw missmargaret on TNA.

https://www.tnaboard.com/member.php?339342-missmargaret

After initial assessment of her place being a dive, marks on her arms, and general feel of who she was I chose to use a rubber even though she wanted BBFS. I am glad I did and walked away without the dirty feeling you sometimes get with a bad encounter.

After fucking her and getting a better look, she seemed clean enough as her vag had no smell and the marks on her arms were probably from razor blades from failed suicide attempts as opposed to drug needles. She may be an ok candidate for BBFS but I don't think I will return. For those who might be interested, she really likes it rough. Choke her with your cock and pile drive her. She can take it.

The risk of female to male transmission for HIV is very low, however, IV users have a much higher incidence of HIV and Hep. It can't be worth worrying for the next 8 weeks about what she may have given you, all for a few minutes of feeling a raw pussy.

I have been a BBFS fan, but always try to make sure that they are not IV users. It just adds a whole new lever of risk for things other than HIV.

I don't recommend BBFS with iv drug users. The percentage of needle sharing is high and can lead to one acquiring Hepatitis and HIV, etc. Always insist on having the lights turned on, preferably all to shine the light on not just iv track marks but also any lesions that are suspicious for HSV, granuloma, condylomata, vaginal discharge, etc. Stay safe A.

I have found that the THICKNESS of a condom, the material it is constructed of and the size make a HUGE difference in the way covered sex feels!

Here is some more info on thin condoms:

https://www.condom-sizes.org/thinnes...innest-condoms

For latex condoms, new size options are available:

https://myonecondoms.com/

The female condom has many advantages:

https://fc2.us.com/

Latex free, can use any type of lube. One size fits all. The man feels friction, not just heat and pressure. Feels like bareback for the man. More skin covered, for better safety. The woman inserts it in advance, so there is no fumbling when ready for penetration. Switching partners in a threesome doesn't require a condom change. Negatives are higher price, harder to use and extra lube required on man's side.
