If I go around having sex with prostitutes but use condoms for safety, can rest assured that I wont be risking myself or with condoms on, I still have a chance of contracting HIV?

I mean is condom a fool-proof way of assuring that you are safe?

I think you can never be too careful. I mean condoms to protect you to some extent though, not completely. I think it's safer to pleasure yourself than to have a person you don't know do it for you. Condoms break. Be careful.

Not completely. If you have open sores and if there's an exchange of body fluids that way, you're at risk. You need to be as careful as possible. The only 100 safe method is masturbation, I hate to say.

I'd agree with the responders. No prostitute is safe.
For that matter no sexual activity with someone so... experienced... could be considered safe. An honest conversation with your partner should be had.

Unfortunately, in most circumstances an open and honest conversation of that nature is a mood killer and you'll never close the deal with the one-night-stand pickup after that conversation is started. (It defeats the whole purpose of a pickup apparently.)

I would assume the risk of contracting HIV through sex with the use of condom is equal to the risk of getting the woman pregnant and you should know how fool proof condoms are from that.

Latex condoms will dramatically reduce the risk of infection not only from HIV, from also from a whole pleathora of STDs - THEY WILL NOT GUARENTEE 100% PROTECTION! That being said, prostitutes dude??? come on?! :roll:

Condoms are not 100% fool proof. And having sex with prostitutes with or without a condom just increases your chance of contracting HIV and other diseases. Just stay away from prostitutes.

It is all at risk, you don’t know what will happen when you use condom. The last thing you know you also contracted AIDS. Be careful of all the things we do for all these things have its consequences.

I guess 99% is your chance of not getting infected if you use condom. But the remaining 1% can put you at risk in getting infected due to condom breakage or factory defect. So, maybe use 2 condoms at a time for greater protection.

nothing is full proof with the possible exception of total abstinence. condoms will protect you a lot more than nothing, but that doesn't mean that if you use one you are automatically going to be safe
