I feel as adults we do need to communicate more. I met a client not long ago who had something that should not have been there and when I quizzed him on it, he had known about it coming and going all through his adult life, but had never seen a doctor about it or visited an STI clinic. I told him what I thought it was and said that he would have to wear a condom for the rest of the booking and I put a pair of rubber gloves on.
Thankfully it was situated near the top of his penis, so it was completely contained, otherwise I would have asked him to leave.
I was shocked that not only had he never had it looked at by someone medically, but no one else had ever called him on it and he said he had seen Escorts in England and Ireland as he travelled with his work. Now that IS scary!!!
So many people not getting bad enough symptoms to act on the problem they have, but what they don't realise is what might be minor for them, could be much worse for someone who may get it from them, as we all have different immune systems. Someone taking medication, could have a really bad reaction.
Everyone should be aware of their own bodies and take care of it, especially when you are having intimate encounters with people you don't know well.
