Question for the experienced ones:

I'm moving from a fair level of activity in the legal NV brothels (Legal Prostitution in NV--lpin) to escorts.  At the brothels, they harp on the safety aspect of their services, negatively comparing things to escorts.

My question is in regards to the transmission of the "minor" STDs such as HPV and herpes--things that can get transmitted by skin contact.  I'm not so worried about HIV, syph, etc because condoms seem to take care of most of that, and it seems like they aren't a big problem unless you're into IV drugs.

Has anyone heard of transmission of these "minor" kinds of STD from providers?

Any other advice in making the transition?

Thanks

I, knock on wood, haven't yet had any problems of that nature (after 16+ excursions into this hobby).  My two recommendations are 1) Read the reviews and 2) look seriously at the independants. I prefer them over the agency girls.

Good luck.

I think you'll see better service for less cost.  However, I've not tried the LPIN.  I have done the IPIN.

Swing by the Las Vegas regional board and peek a few pages back.  A while back there was a decent thread going on health concerns surrounding lpin vs. escorts.  Your best bet would be to stick with well-reviewed indies as most of the agencies in Vegas have very bad reps as hives of ripoff artists.
