Would you ladies appreciate the effort say if your client gets an STD test the day before and shows you the results when he meets you? Does this put you more at ease with the client or did he go out of line? Also, would some ladies allow their clients to go uncovered throughout the whole session if they did this?

Hey ya b0b. Im a newbie but i would say...hmmmm...shoot that is a toughie. I think maybe at first i would still insist on being covered. Get to know you and spend a few experiences together. Then its possible, you really should just be very careful my friend, even if your fine they may not be. They may not even be aware. I actually prefer nothing for the feeling, the contact...whoa, nice ya know. But you have to think with both heads sweetie. Have fun and play safe ; )

It takes one week for results of a full STD panel screen.

I remember the days when lots of people carried their "little green health cards" But those days are gone.

uncover part. Not sure that is wise...

sorry being in health care and yes these results on paper can be faked (believe me I knew someone who faked one to do a xxx video and did not want to pay $$$) so everyone is at risk. not worth it seen first hand what all std does to people socially, medically and financially

Most tests are not full panels (ex. herpes blood draw) and you can't often get same day results.  Add to that the lag time between exposure and positive test result for many things.  For all I know even IFF the test was done the night before, how do I know what he's done since?

Nope.  When we're talking life and death, ain't no piece of paper going to get me to exchange my health for your cash.

If I thought the client was being sincere and thoughtful I would try to educate him.  Otherwise, in my nicest language... I would assume that he was an ignorant fool for thinking the paper meant a darned thing or would get him anything "extra."

Listen I go get test every 3 months and when I see clients if they ask to see my results I do.  I still use covers.  That is NUTS. I dont care who you are I would never not use a cover.

completely with the opinions expressed above.

Thanks for a great reply--we have a lot of fun reading and bantering but ER can be a place where readers get highly educated and isn't that what we are here for. Thanks again.

I must say If your friend did do a xxx movie it was done by a  non professional video production. All companies use AIM only heath test screenings.
So if they did a video they are also going against the grain in the adult video works. There are two clinic that test for industry. And by most standards. DR. Sharon (also once a performer) created AIM.
Every 30 days talent is tested.BY industry standard. The test cost more and yes it is back in a day. But with that no herpes is not scanned.
But if everyone read up on the government studies go to the CDC website. Over 85% of ALL the public has been in contact with herpes....
I am sure 85 % of the public is not in the hobby!
Use your head and play safe. But I would not suggest that the industry condones the attitude to just bring in a piece of paper and We film....
AIM test two forms of ID...and a video consent to film in any real production.

just my 2 cents...

i never planned on goin uncovered, it was just my curiousity.... but i always thought about getting tested before sessions to make her feel more comfy. thanks for the input peeps.

I'd prefer you get tested regularly for the sake of your own health and well-being rather than to put me at ease. I'm well-adjusted to the risks having multiple partners carries, and conduct myself in a way that reduces those risks while still making our time together mutually enjoyable.

It would have no bearing on condom use. Unless you came up positive for something, that is.

You could find a facility/clinic which provides viral load and scrap testing (search for actual virus instead of just antibodies) which lets you know if someone or you were exposed to any particular virus within 24 to 48 hours. As well, you would pay extra ($100 to $800) to get your results back within 48 hours.

So lets say you booked an engagement, took the tests, neither person had sex for 48 hours, then you could be sure. But that's a lot when a $1 condom could protect you just as well.

As well, though a person may be free of STDs, we haven't addressed the issue of birth control. I got a sinus infection this year from flying so much and clearly on the label was a warning stating the medication could affect the effectiveness of birth control.

When the lady arrives, she first heads off to the doc for tests.  Then, she sits idle until the results come back, unable to host parties.  She's not allowed off premises, or needs to be retested.  Even with all that, ALL activity is covered.

Now, I realize that the government doesn't do much terribly well, but even they don't trust the "I got tested, so do me bareback" method.

A piece of paper is absolutely meaningless. ASSuming the paper actually belongs to you, the ONLY thing it means is that at the time you took the test, you were not positive for any STD's. However, since most HIV tests cannot detect the test for up to 3 months, and some tests can take even longer, that piece of paper has absolutely no meaning for me whatsoever.

Sure, there are some women who will let you forget about the raincoat. Usually for a higher donation amount. But uh, if she will let you forget that inconvenient piece of latex, she will let any other guy who asks and is willing to pay the price for it. So the question you gotta ask yourself is, just how into group sex are you??

It in this so call "window period" when  the HIV viral load is the highest and the person is most infectious.

Nucleic acid based tests for the virus still has a "window period" of 12 days and is prohibitively expensive(several thousand of dollars)to do the test for one sample.

The last HIV outbreak in the adult industry was in the spring of 2004 (the Darren James case) & he acquired HIV from anal sex with trannies in Brazil...

The chances of getting HIV from uncovered vaginal are very remote...

I test at AIM & I test where I live..I just had my annual physical 2 weeks ago & had another complete round of tests done (HIV, RPR, Hepatitis C, even a urinalysis)...I often will have an 8-12 week window between the time of my last encounter and the next appointment....Also, I never have done, nor will do anal....I'm an adult, & it's the business of myself & a provider if we do BB...I have 2 forms of ID with me always as well....My lifestlye is FAR less risky than a typical male porn star...
