Despite my best efforts i still cant catch an STD

[Resources3xx]

ok OBVIOUSLY I don't want one but i just got my tests back and i'm all negative. i just find it a bit strange. i hear stories about people cheating on their wives with one hooker and their partners an std... just after one session. i've been doing this for over 25 years. i had a 10 year relation in between but outside of that, i must have seen about 500 Sps in my lifetime... not one STD. and it not like i do vanilla punts either. i don't do bareback and i haven't been shat on... yet! but everything else is on the table. i mean i am one SERIOUSLY nasty bastard.

again, OBVIOUSLY, its a good thing but in a strange way there is a negative aspect to it. i used to get tested regularly but the more time thats passed the longer the gap has been between my test. truthfully, my last test before this one was probably about a year a go. thats really bad i know and i was confident i must have something now. maybe if id had at least one positive in the past 25 years id be more up to date with my tests. but when youve only had negatives its easy to get lazy


has anyone else shagged similar figures and not had an std like me???

i know that SPs test themselves regularly but theres no guarantee the guy she noshed of 10 minutes before kissing me is all clean.

Speaking as someone who doesn't have the same goal tally as you, I have the same experience. I regularly test myself and have never tested positive for an STI.

Earlier this year, I developed non-specific urethritis and I was convinced that this was the time my luck finally ran out, only for the STI tests to all come back negative  . Even when I had secondary complications during the recovery, requiring a trip to A+E, I explained the story to the consultant, who was confused how I could have developed it if I had only had uncovered oral in the lead-up.

I guess I will just keep testing every few months (which we should all do in this business really) and hope that luck continues.

hi mate im a bit confused i looked up urethitis it says the following

Urethritis is when the tube that carries pee from the bladder out of the body (urethra) becomes swollen and sore. It's often caused by a sexually transmitted infection (STI). It's important to get it treated to avoid it spreading to other people. Gonococcal urethritis is when the infection is caused by gonorrhoea.


are u saying that usually its due to an sti. but in your case it wasnt

You can get non specific urethritis and the cause can be unknown, maybe viruses. Can takes weeks of treatment to clear that one.

There is always a first time....

I had a discussion with someone and he said he tests regularly and his test came back positive for an std, and he didn't have any symptoms at all. Nobody let him know. Often times the girls don't know themselves. So just be grateful for your luck as many people on here take their sexual health seriously given the amount of concerned topics.

Ye, well look in fully aware that it could happen on my next punt and I haven’t got a “it will never happen to me” attitude. On the contrary I EXPECT it. Thats why I’m shocked that I haven’t had one. The downside as I’ve mentioned is that it does make you complicate. It shouldn’t and I only have myself to blame. But as I said I thought my last one was about 5-6 months ago. Once I did the math I realised it was more like a year. I’m done with relationships too so there’s no risk of passing something in to a partner but still got to be more disciplined

[Rose_128]

I believe you said you didn't test for a year. If you are not partnered and are quite prolific,  and more extreme and don't live somewhere where testing is 'impossible' then that's quite irresponsible to yourself. If everyone did their own bit for the community then maybe there wouldn't be as many positive tests. It's up to you of course, you decide, but what I posted earlier is that someone I spoke with a while ago had a positive test, tests 2-3 months and never had any symptoms and none of the girls notified him to get checked.

Would you want to carry gonorrhea or chlamydia for a year and not know even if you are single?

What has it got to do with you when I posted my last review, if you have an issue with it report it and one of the mods, admin or site owner will look into it.

Edit

It has been well publicised all over the forum that members commenting on or pulling others up about their contributions is something we are actively discouraging and those who persist face being banned which may or may not be permanent.

Maybe one of the Mods could change it to a less topical thread title?  It is a pretty dumb title, especially in a forum like this.

To me, there's a potentially valid point hidden away in the original post.  Is sex with an escort safer?

I've only ever had one STD.  Back in the 90s I caught crabs from a civvy - that was long before my punting days started.  OK, a condom wouldn't have helped with that one, but lets face it, most civvies don't get tested regularly and if you're having casual affairs with people you actually like etc, it's far more likely that you're going to get carried away eventually and take the risk of going in unprotected.  And far more likely that whoever you're with has done it before without getting tested.

With a professional, that risk is minimised due to the transactional nature of what you're doing.  It's also far more likely that they're regularly tested and far less likely that they're sleeping around without protection.

So my thought on the original post is that it may not be that surprising to have a tally of 500 SPs without catching anything.  But it probably would be surprising to have a body count like that as a non-punter without catching something.

Mods or helpers can't just go changing things because of the opinion they have about the title. The OP started the thread and he chose the title to suit his point.

How safe sex with an escort is has been done to death on here, but this thread is about the OP's own situation.

In theory you are right, but you don't really know what people are doing outside of the industry. Some escorts could be having casual encounters too, maybe they separate their business, so best thing to do is not to rely on any stats and just look after yourself. OP said his only risk was owo, so he has just been lucky so far but doesn't test himself these days.

This ^

I have posted this many times before, but the random nature of small risks eg OWO, means it is very much a lottery. Some will never 'win' others may win more than once.

My lifetime body count is a fair bit higher than the OP, but I have never (to my knowledge) succumbed*. More by luck than judgement?

EDIT *There is a proviso here that I do not include HPV

 

[Resources3xx]

, so he has just been lucky so far but doesn't test himself these days.

hang on. I know for A FACT you read that I said "ive just had my tests back" so thats a straight up lie to say i dont test myself these days. 

now if you want to slag me to off to others go for it but at least tell the truth  and say
"he hasn’t  tested regularly lately "
"he hasn’t tested  enough lately"

There’s a difference

i started this thread to
1) see if it was common or unusual for someone who has punted about 25 years to have never caught something
2)to confess that only ever getting negatives has recently caused me to be complacent.

thats human nature. when you tend to get away with something it can lead to complacency

however im OWNING that fact that i have been irresponsible as of late and i need to be more up to date going forward. NO ONE is perfect. I could virtue signal and tell people how perfect I am but I’d rather be honest


Now for the title, Jesus Christ, I didn’t think people would take it literally, let alone that there’d be a petition to have it changed.    If the mods wanna change it or even delete the entire thread. Go for it. My life moves on. It ain’t that deep

Now I’m sure someone wants to write “IDIOT, you misrepresented yourself with your STUPID title, IDIOT”… sure but i did clarify my stance. Take it or leave it. @Rose_128 you’ve READ my clarification and still paint a picture that I’ve given up on testing… that’s not right



Hey if anyone wants to discuss what i initially intended to discuss. I’m all ears . But if people wanna go on and on  about the title or get on their moral high ground and have a go at me cos I admitted my flaws. Thanks but… have a nice day
 

[Resources3xx]

P.s someone actually DMed me yesterday and told me they can relate to what I said as they’d also been complacent… so what’s the best way to get tested?

So if my title caught someone’s eye and as a result he’s now getting tested. That means more to me than a few people on here getting mad about a title… so please, stay mad 👍

Ok so this has just made me realise. I too got a flag. It was very early on in my sex life. Maybe the second time I’d ever been tested. Although I had been with an SP by then I know it wasn’t with her because of the timing so it was from a “civvy” (I’m guessing that means civilian) too. I’m guessing the reason why it slipped my mind at first is because it was a water infection. So it wasn’t anything major and the nurse said I MAY have gotten it from sex but it’s not possible to say so not strictly an sti

So ye I echo what you say. From my PERSONAL experience it does seem that sex with a SP seems to be safer

[Rose_128]

Your post doesn't encourage testing. It actually discourages testing because someone may read it and think if you haven't caught anything yourself in 25 years they may not either. But as I said before some people don't show symptoms down below so they could carry stuff without ever knowing. I said this in my previous post.

If you are London based and unattached , then SHL testing kits are great, it's free and discreet packaging. I understand that being married makes testing kits more complicated but you haven't got that in your way. If you are quite prolific and extreme then testing every 3 months would definitely be recommended. Or at least 6 months but definitely not a year or more. You can't rely on strangers with your sexual health ( unless you only see 1-2 regular girls and they may let you know. But still )

I am not familiar with outside of London, but ringing up your nearest clinic and ask if they offer symptomless testing, and if not then they should be able to provide you with a self testing kit too.


The blood kits are difficult to work out/ perform, so if you don't manage then just post urine sample and they will send you results from gonorrhoea and chlamydia.

[Belgarion]

I've been putting off and on for about 20 years and never caught an STI.

Also, I shag civvies and I'm on hook up sites. I'm just careful and take no risks and do not mix alcohol with pleasure.

Not every comment has to have a secret agenda. My intention wasn’t to encourage or discourage but simply share my experience. If as a result someone realised they’d been complacent too and will now get tested. Hey I’ll claim it. But I’m always going to be honest even when it don’t seem to fit the right narrative.  it still doesn’t make it ok to misrepresent me the way you did. Anyway I’ve said what I have to say on that take it or leave it.thanks for posting the info on testing

[PumpDump]

To get back to the original post, I too am surprised at how difficult it is to catch an STD. To clarify for those who don't get sarcasm, I am definitely not trying to catch one, I do not want one.

When I started having sex as a teenager I thought all a girl had to do was sneeze on you and you'd have HIV. But reality is a different story. I have had two STDs in my entire punting career, which is a very very long time. And on top of that I have been barebacking since 2012. I have roughly 40 punts per year and one third of them are bareback. I get tested every 3 - 4 months or sooner if symptomatic.  I am convinced the STD risk is exaggerated by people who disapprove of casual sex, also people who have a vested interest selling treatment services. But that is a whole different debate!

I've encountered some SS who have the same thoughts as you did as a teenager, after their booking (protected intercourse, and OWO) they wonder if they now have to go straight to the GUM clinic. I will explain OWO does carry some risk, and advise they need to obtain their own advice from qualified medical professionals.  On the other hand I sometimes get the impression some SS rely on SPs testing as a sort of testing by proxy, I wonder how much lower the risk and prevalence could be if more SS tested? Could  cases even increase as asymptomatic cases are detected.

[pantywetter]

I must be well, well north of 1000 punts and I’ve never caught anything.  The vast majority OWO but always covered sex obvs.

I’ve had I think 3 or 4 one night stands and on 2 of those I caught something - once from OWO and once from dipping my wick unprotected for about 5 seconds.

No exaggerating those numbers.  I find it incredible!

To me this shows that generally WGs must take good care of their health and it seems like the type of lass you pick up in a club is much more likely to have something.  I also assume OWO must be very, very hard to pick something up. 

I agree STDs seem quite hard to catch but I’m still careful and test regularly.

… and over 1000

I mean they are some serious numbers.

Now before the mortality police get on my case. We get it. You can goose SP number 1000 get tested then catch something off SP 1001 WE GET IT, get tested! WE GET IT!

but this tells me there is  validity in what I’m saying. I’ve always known 1 out of 10 young adults have chlamydia, that’s just ONE  sti. Well lest say another  1 out of 10 have EVERY other sti that exists. That means there’s 1 in 5 chance of the person you’re shagging having an sti. So to reach 1000 isn’t luck it’s a fucking miracle.

Like others have said. Must be down to SPs being safer. Which is pretty mad since I’m sure we’ve all at least one person say “how could you fuck a prostitute? They are full of diseases. Thats gross”

Turns out fucking civvy chicks is grosser 🤣

I also tell some of my mates I go down on SPs and they can’t believe it. Partially cos another guys cock was in there 30 mins ago (something u just gotta blank out as a punter) but mainly cos they are convinced their fannies are filled with diseases

I feel it is more likely some people are blessed with better immune systems than others. I find it hard to believe some of the SPs I've shagged take care of their sexual health, I am thinking of Roms who are shagging multiple men per day. I do try to avoid them, but every now and again a real hottie appears and I can't resist!

Over my 40 odd years of punting, I have never caught anything of escorts, and would go down on them.  When going down on a female, it has never crossed my mind, that some punter before me, has had sex, and maybe bareback

Only in my youth did I sometimes bareback an escort, but it was always with the same escort, now I dont know of this escort did the same with other punters.  So all I know about this escort, was after each booking, she would shower and clean herself up, and then it my booking, and I would go down

Have been swinging for 10+ years. With an old partner and solo. Have also been to many countries and had encounters with women. However can honestly say I've only ever had bare sex with under 6 people... I have however had condoms break a few times and obviously do oral without and rimming ect...

I get tested every 3 months regularly and because I go to African country's and often even civilian sex is with African or Carribbean girls generally I am on prep for the past 3 years... However I've also never had anything. I am nowhere near on the count of yours though!...

I would however advise anyone who's doing this kind of thing or seeing multiple women to get tested regular.... It's free and also I wouldn't want to be someone that unknowingly gave someone anything.

Also.... Having spoken to many SP in swinger's clubs most people only get tested every 3 months. That means in that 3 months even if they only saw 1 client per day (more realistically 3+). In that 3 months could be anywhere between 90 to 360 clients, possibly way more.... If you think about that then it really does make sense to test as the more clients they see the greater the chances ect....

I would imagine that you haven't caught anything because you don't do bareback and whilst OWO does have some risk its much lower for the reciever.

I am sure you are right about not doing bareback. I have done well over 500 punts in the last 40 years or so (but probably not with the that many different WGs as I like to have regulars) and I have only ever had an STD once, which was after foreplay with one regular got out of hand and we ended up having unprotected sex. Fortunately, this was easily fixed by antibiotics.

I am always intrigued by the concerns about OWO. What are the risks? Should we be checking for Listerine-fresh breath before OWO?

Cheers!

Awareness
Acceptable risk
Oral swabs

Some people don't realise two STIs can be carried in the mouth and the genital tests do not cover the oral cavity. However the NHS don't feel oral swabs are an efficient or appropriate use of resources, so don't tend to offer or so swabs to non-symptomatic women or heterosexual men unless they are sex workers. I am offered routine triple site testing because I'm a sex worker, but for many years I had to prompt for oral swabs.

Would you care to tell us who is this was so we can avoid them for offering BB. I’m sure if this has happened to you then she would have done so with others

If you're just testing for chlamydia and gonorrhoea then yes, you're very unlikely to test positive if taking precautions (not barebacking!)

Don't forget there are a multitude of other ones not routinely tested though - Trichomoniasis, Mycoplasma genitalium, Gardnerella, Ureaplasma to name a few.

I did an "extended" STD test a few years back (cost £195 I think) and was surprised to see I had 2 of these - no symptoms, testing negative for chlamydia and gonorrhoea. Both cleared up with antibiotics but made me think, how many people just assume chlamydia and gonorrhoea are the only 2 STDs you can catch?

You can also get NSU if your normal bacterial balance in your urethra is off. If I use certain shower gels that my body doesn't like, my urethra feels like it's got tiny cuts and oozes gunk. It's happened three times now, so I stick to certain brands only

Interesting. Did you get 2 of those STIs from just oral without or bareback (civvies, etc.)? Also, did it clear up with antibiotics?
