I've heard hand sanitizer is a bad ideas because it dries out skin but can't you just use it and then moisturize? [/QUOTE]Ahem. Hand sanitizer is alcohol and glycerin. Why don't you try it and report back. .
You won't repeat.

[QUOTE=MongerForSex;2330444]Syzygies, You did not catch chlamydia from finger in pussy, you had trachomatis. Stop being paranoid. There is no point in trying to understand how you got it.
[/QUOTE]I don't think I am paranoid. I may have made a wrong guess, not being an expert. Tell me then, what are like methods the bacteria got into one eye. I assumed was on my finger and I rubbed my eye. Please enlighten further, what ways are more likely.
If it is the same bacteria that causes Chlamydia, then it was a reasonable guess it came from a pussy. If not, is it airborne? I doubt it. So what are the likely sources. At the time it was called "Chlamydia pink eye" at the eye hospital I believe. I don't recall the eye hospital doctor mentioning the term "Trachomatis", and of course fancy terms may not mean that much to us. So anyway I was told I tested positive to Chlamydia in the eye.
I am aware the medical professionals like to use different terminology for similar conditions caught in different parts of the body. E. g. I once had "acne" under the hair of my scalp but the skin doctor said no, acne was impossible in that place, it was dandruff. Later another better skin specialist admitted it was in fact the same as acne, but is given a different name in that location by the medical profession. So we learn not to trust doctors who are trying to dumb it down, and say the problem is something else, when I know very well it was "acne" by my definition of the term.
Okay I don't know exactly how I got my "pink eye" (can't prove anything), so am very willing to hear the likely ways it could get there.

[QUOTE=YearOfMonk;2330450]Hi!
As a layman in terms of medical knowledge on STD's, I have a query:
I am off to Pattaya in few weeks. I am not a fan of DATY so that is out of question. I always indulge in protected intercourse so that is covered too. My only fetish is to have BBBJ before sex, almost every time. What protections / pro active steps can I take to minimize the risk of STD's from my mongering adventures, given the steps that I follow already?
Thanks in advance.[/QUOTE]Having BBBJ is not risky for STDs, I would say the risk is the same as kissing a woman. You don't need to get tested for HPV and HSV if you have no symptom. HSV2 is rare in the oral area, when it happens, it's on the mouth most of the time and rarely inside the mouth. You can't miss lesions on the mouth. You can't catch hsv1 twice, if you had hsv1 in the oral area, you won't develop hsv1 in another site. HSV1 offer protection against hsv2. Some medical professionals don't agree with me but many agree with me. You need to use condom when you have vaginal sex. After every sexual encounter, remove the condom gently and wash your hands with soap before washing your penis, wash your penis for 5 minutes minimum with water. Avoid using some products on your penis. You should avoid excessive alcohol and illicit drug because it can lower your immunity and lead you to high risk sexual behavior. After your trip, if you worry too much when it comes to STDs, you can get screened for STDs just for peace of mind but I am sure you won't contract anything. STDs are easily cured or easily treated (Herpes) but most of the time asymptomatic. STDs is only dangerous when you are married. STD can ruin your marital life because STDs are reportable. HSV and HPV are not reportable.
They focus on developping vaccines for Gonorrhea, Chlamydia and Syphilis, the program will last 5 years. http://industrynewstimes.com/263/nih-announced-to-give-award-to-those-who-find-vaccine-for-stds/

PhD in Safe Sex Studies.
Perhaps it is time for us all to do a PhD in safe sex studies. As someone who has got the clap three times over 40 or so years, let me say the following from bad experience. We have to be very careful what we read on line, on this forum included. In at least one of those three cases, a major contributory factor was that I paid heed to "no STI risk for Thai hookers" even though I knew the opposite to be the case. Getting STIs is a bummer and STI clinics are not the type of place one feels like hitting on a chick.
In this hobby of ours, we are riding the odds and al kinds of quacks want to tell us how to beat the odds. And we want to believe them.
I stopped closely following this thread hen the information and catalogue of STIs and related illnesses got very detailed.
I wil try to obey all the usual safe sex codes of practice with this one caveat. I am old school. I like bareback. I know the risks but I want to wish them away and the Internet helps me with that but not with my STI bills.

[QUOTE=Syzygies;2330358]
I have moved to ultra thin condoms like many others. I don't believe they break any more often. If they do break I can change it. Breakage comes from finger nails, or anything else sharp, or manufacturing defect, or from abrasion against a sponge shoved in the girl's pussy. I always check for sponges and make sure thy get removed. I probably can not fuck with a thick condom, so forget that for an idea.
[/QUOTE]I have broken a few thin condoms due to over stress, I. E. Poke through. The thrusting, even in a well lubricated vagina, causes the condom to bunch up at the base and it pulls down tightly at the tip. The axial stresses on the condom can be huge! And these stresses cause the condom material at the tip to stretch out and to tightly seal the urethral opening. If the vagina is even slightly dry, then you will have a poke through. If you don't have a poke through, ejaculation will hurt as you have to break through the seal that the stretched condom creates.
When I was younger I never seemed to have this issue. I would leave an inch at the tip and that inch would remain the entire time. Not any more. And even with he reservoir-tipped condoms, the axial forces stretches out that reservoir and it engulfs practically the entire tip of my penis!
But many times I have pulled out and I have tried to pull the condom back out a little bit to re-create a gap, but the condom just won't pull out, possibly due to the vacuum created. I have no ideal how to stop it. My penis is essentially the same size, and I normally use lubricated condoms which one would think would resist the axial forces. Or maybe the lube quickly dries out a bit or otherwise acts to allow the condom to stretch out, but not back. So it acts like a ratchet. Each stroke pulls the material tighter.
Almost every condom I have tried in the last few years exhibits this problem, to include thin or thick, slim fit or normal fit. (Can't remember about the large size.) Very strange. Anyone else have this happen?

Anyone else have this happen?[/QUOTE]Ha ha. I have never experienced what you refer to, or rarely and not noticed. My dick must be opposite to yours since condom gradually moving up the cock towards the tip is the norm, so then I have to pull it back down again. Bunching a bit below the head is common. I probably never fuck with such force you mention. A very gentle fucker, and I like slow motion more than battering ram style. I have heard the slap slap of other guys fucking and I note that most are a faster stroke than what I prefer. Sometimes have to speed up for the girl's benefit. Some like a power fuck.
With Okamoto 003, the condom is a bit small. It does not reach the base of dick at all, let alone bunching there. Ha ha. I have to put fingers of both hands inside it to stretch it, in order to get it on, using fingers to unroll it pulling downwards.
I use a lot of lube, probably more than normal, to make sure that vagina cannot pull on condom too strongly. I like slippery feel not abrasion feel. I did meet one girl who wanted low lube so her pussy could contract and massage the dick very strongly. She was not Thai.
The only thing I can think of is your lube is insufficient.
The dick is not sharp enough to prick a condom. How you can get forces strong enough to break it, is beyond my thinking. I think it is likely you abrade the condom, potentially on a sponge inserted in the girl's pussy. 5 to 10% of girls fucked have them. I almost always put fingers in a girl to check for obstructions. If I did not initially, but am having a hard time to get the dick to go in sufficiently, then I will try to check. Sometimes the girl's descended uterus is the obstruction, sometimes not. We have to be patient at the start of sex to give the girl's vagina time to stretch. Remember it has to stretch heaps to let a baby pass. Can stretch from 4 to 5 inches hopefully to 7 to 8 inches if healthy and if necessary. Extra tight pussies can be a problem for me, especially if a doctor stitched her up a bit too tight in the past.
Have you seen condoms used as balloons filled with water? One can see they are quite strong if not damaged.

[QUOTE=MongerForSex;2330823]It's not difficult to understand, trachoma is caused by another subtype of chlamydia. You did not get trachoma from finger in pussy.[/QUOTE]Maybe commonly another subtype. I have to suspect you are being too dogmatic and not allowing for the possibilities. That discredits you somewhat. You get stuck on what you think is common. Yes it is difficult to understand.
Your statement is useless to me. You have not suggested any POSSIBLE way it could have got there. I am still waiting to hear what way is likely, or what you consider possible. Avoiding the actual question, suggests you have no idea how it gets there, if it was what you suggest.
Here are some quotes I read on the web:"You can catch chlamydia of the eye when you rub fluids which contain the bacteria into your eye. This can happen if you have chlamydia and touch your eye after touching your genitals or those of an infected partner".
"Chlamydia eye infections are easily prevented. If you have chlamydia, avoid touching your genitals and wash you hands every time you have touched them (for example after you have been to the toilet)."
These things are quoted as the most common way to catch Chlamydia Pink Eye. I was told the test for Chlamydial Conjunctivitus in my eye was positive. Trachoma was not mentioned, as far as I remember.

Maybe you also need more intelligence.[/QUOTE]Thanks for clearing that up, very thoughtful of you. My apologizes for upsetting you. Please don't take it so personally. In my ignorance I always thought STD's were a health problem. Now thanks to your very intelligent perspective I maybe understand the connection between financial ruin and STD's. So please kind sir enlighten me as to how does this only happens to married people. Has it something to do with a subsequent divorce where the settlement by the infected spouse as a consequence of being infected is reduced to a life of penury. In other words if he or she (I'm assuming the issue is gender neutral) were not infected the divorce settlement would be different and financial ruin would not ensue?. To finish I have for the sake of transparency admit to being divorced twice, One was relatively expensive but not crippling the other the first was by mutual no contest consent and financially neutral but then I was lucky, I wasn't a STD carrier otherwise I may be living in some shanty town in Rio.

The best way to have accurate information is to visit a professional dealing with infectious diseases on a regular basis. You can catch STD without having sex or you can also catch it in a monagamous relationship. I don't know about Thailand but in Brazil, sex workers are regularly tested for STDs if you go to high end brothels. Everybody is different. I was unlucky with tuberculosis but never had trouble with STDs. My biggest phobia is tuberculosis. STDs are easily cured. STDs don't kill today except for HIV and Hepatitis. Syphilis causes stillbirths and kill infants but rarely adults. Most adults dying of syphilis are hiv positive that's why hiv is the biggest killer followed by hepatitis. Tuberculosis doesn't descriminate, tuberculosis kills hiv negative and hiv positive people.

People with Yaws also test positive for syphilis, the same kind of bacteria but caused by another subtype of treponema pallidum. Trachoma is treated with the same antibiotic as sexual chlamydia like Yaws is treated with the same antibiotics as Syphilis. Many people with lyme disease also test positive for syphilis without having syphilis. (Treponemal tests). 300 000 Americans catch lyme disease every year. I already answered your questions in my previous posts. Keep believing you got trachoma from finger in pussy. You are free to believe in what you want even when the beleif is wrong.
