It's all about risk tolerance.
[QUOTE=FernandoAlonso;2923194]If this is not a prank I honestly feel sorry for you, I mean seriously? But this reminds me on a story a lovely soi 23 massage lady told me when she talked a client in his first HJ ever. He insisted on a condom, LOL, true story![/QUOTE]The most common STI is HPV. They say around 80%-90% of people will get HPV if your sexually active.
You can get HPV from a handjob so wearing a condom reduces the risk, but you can still get HPV because the area that isn't covered by condom isn't protected.
There are over 200 kinds of HPV and some kinds of HPV can cause cancer in men and women. The odds are high that the sex workers have many kinds of HPV including the ones that can cause cancer. I don't know if the young Thai girls take the HPV vaccine.
It's all about risk tolerance.
Some people are OK with the risks, some people don't want to take the risks, or want to reduce the risks.
Must be quite a story there
[QUOTE=EverythingThai;2923223]I know the whole story behind this girl. She shacked up with an Aussie guy in Pattaya and her and her mother extorted him for a ton of money. Now he is broke and can't afford her anymore. She will be back soon in Bangkok boys with her mother waiting in the car again to take the money.[/QUOTE]She and her mom cleaned out some dude by force or threat? Based on what, I wonder.
Do you know the guy and, if so, does he know about ISG? I'd look forward to reading a Field Report on how in the world that happened.
I have seen her on Soi 4 a few times over the past week. So the estate of Mr. Pattaya must not have been all that vast.
Just new to this and not a prank / joke
I may be sounding naive because maybe I am.
I am just new to this world and this was my first time in a place like that or even taking the services of a professional. I've been lurking on these forums for a while now but never actually did it until that day. So I really don't have any experience or frame of reference. And suddenly the consequences and risks hit me. (Life, family, having to settle down eventually etc). That's all. Apologies if it sounded stupid. To be honest I'm still not sure, but just trying to remain calm. And hoping I am alright.
I wanted to know what standards (if any) these places have. The lady insisted on condom so I guess she tries to be safe but you never know.
Thanks.
