Thank you for your reply. Just want to make sure I am clear that I am not blaming the "professionals" at all. More so the act of cheating and lying about it. This is just my personal opinion/preference. As for your questions, I see your point for sure. Yes, both parties were fully tested when they got together, and a year after that tested again. My friend had regular pap tests every year. They were together for about 10 years when her doctor suggested pap testing every 3 years as she was older and in a "monogamous relationship." It was during this time she contracted the virus and it was not caught in the early stage. Unfortunately, in this case, it is about 99% positive that her husband did transmit her this virus. However, I appreciate your input as in alot of cases it is not always easy to determine who gave whom what! In any case, I just feel personally that nobody has the right to "choose" for the health of their partner. There is no such thing as one hundred percent safe, and i'm not willing to gamble even 1% on the life and health of someone else without their knowledge. It is selfish and cruel. This does not mean to say I have anything against sp's as i have visited a few in my day and very much appreciate the company and service, as a single man. Cheers, Andy

I understand! No judgment intended. I enjoy fun just as much as the rest of us. I just choose to be open and honest with a new partner. If i'm in a relationship, I'm with that person exclusively and they are made aware of my past. Just a personal preference based on the experiences of my best female friend, whose husband was engaging in "protected sex" behind her back. He transmited the hpv virus to her and she found out too late as she thought she was in a monogamous relationship. It had nearly developed into cancer. Luckily, she is o.k. As I said, I'm not judging, or preaching here, but rather expressing my personal preference for honesty! Thanks for your reply, I appreciate your point of view. Andy.

It would be UNBELIEVABLE to think that any man in this lifestyle would also carry on a regular relationship with a girlfriend/spouse without their knowledge. Safe is one thing, but 100% certainty that you are not going to catch something is another. Condoms do not prevent HPV, a potentially deadly disease to women. Just my two cents.
