| Is anal sex safe without a condom? Posted: 10/10/2007 4:51:56 PM | Anal sex is very dangerous to both men and women. The one who is receiving anal penetration runs a high risk of having small rips in the tissue wall, which is then exposed to any viral, STD's,Aids or any infection directly into the blood stream. The one who is entering for anal sex does run the risk of UTI's, STD's, Aids, virus's and ecoli infection. When people are having sex, they are not thinking of how their hands or fingers may have touched their penis or even the condom after they entered anally. They may transfer anal fluids with the ecoli virus near there mouths, which will then enter the body. Also...if a man has anal sex with a woman, then enters her vaginally afterwards, he may give her a raging severe infection. As I heard a GYN doctor say one time...."never go two and back to one!" Consistent anal sex will also cause the anal sphincter muscle to be stretched, lose it's tone & lessen the control of the functions in that area. It's up to the individual, but it's truly not safe. As for me...it's a NO! | |

it's only idiots in north america or the 'new world' that even dare to 'wipe their arses with paper...most civilised countries wash their bums with water and soap,...a reccomended habit I condone everyone to use! I so agree. I'm from germany and I would have to say I couldn't agree more. It so hurts when you "wipe your ass with paper". shiiiiiiiiiiiit. I hate it. | |

| Is anal sex safe without a condom? Posted: 10/10/2007 7:58:53 PM | Are some of you for real? there is nothing 'immoral' with long term partners not using condoms for anal sex (he never said he was doing it with a one night stand...so why do some of you jump to such silly assumptions!!).... and hell....there is nothing wrong with those that like to give or receive anal sex! (I do love shop home parties and we always talk about anal sex and this is part of what I teach the ladies - I advocate using a condom, but it's a matter of personal choice and if the receiver uses an enema, there generally aren't problems...it's when there is a skin rupture that you actually could have a problem...read on):
If you are curious about exploring anal sex, the key to keeping it safe and pleasurable is following some simple guidelines.
The anus does not have any of its own lubrication, so it is essential to use lots of water-based lubrication before attempting anal sex. This will reduce friction during penetration to protect the paper-thin anal tissue from tearing. This helps reduce discomfort, retain the anal musculature preventing incontinence, and also helps prevent an STD from entering through the torn tissue.
Speaking of STD prevention, it would be wise to have your partner use a heavily-lubed condom during anal sex and never go directly from anal sex in to the vagina or the mouth unless you've changed condoms or completely cleaned yourself with soap and water. There are certain bacteria which reside safely in the anus and colon, which can cause infection when moved into another orifice. The third step is not to be in any rush to allow penetration to occur too quickly. A rare but dangerous complication of anal sex is rupture of the rectum, which can cause severe injury and result in a severe bacterial infection. The signs of an infection include diarrhea, fever and lower abdominal pain. The bacteria causing these symptoms include: Chlamydia, gonorrhea, lymphogranuloma venereum, shigella and herpes. Viruses are also transmitted in the same manner, and include HIV, Hep B, Hep C, Epstein-Barr virus (which causes mono) and Cytomegalovirus.
Last, but not least...it's a damned fine question to ask amongst all the others you see under this particular topic of 'sex and dating'...so get real folks and stop 'crapping' on people for asking questions like this - it's a potential learning experience for many! XXX Cat

| Is anal sex safe without a condom? Posted: 10/11/2007 10:54:13 AM | Oh boy, So from anal sex to oral sex without an intermission is a No-NO? If so, I know some couples people in deep poo. javascript:smilie(' ') | |
|
| Is anal sex safe without a condom? Posted: 10/11/2007 11:19:04 AM | | As you've gathered by now, yes a condom should be used. The colon is very absorbant so STD's can easily be caught/transferred. Thats my understanding anyway. | |
|
| Is anal sex safe without a condom? Posted: 10/11/2007 12:21:30 PM | Please understand...I have no morality issues with anal sex. If anyone enjoys it, then do it. I am just saying...be careful. That goes for unprotected anal and vaginal sex. As for trusting a long time partner?...I had a man live with me for 4 years and we were engaged. I totally trusted him. It ended because he was screwing 2 other women at his work place. Both women were high risk because they were rather available with other men at bars also. Needless to say, I was duped and ran to the doctors for a check up the very next day and fortunately got a clean bill of health. Probably because sex was less with me when he was cheating. Poor fella was worn out...geez!
I was just stating medical knowlege I have picked up in my profession..that's all. | |

| Is anal sex safe without a condom? Posted: 10/11/2007 3:07:26 PM | | yes it can be if you know what you are doing and and one thing i have to say is condoms make it alot easier on the woman because the lube makes it slide in and out with less friction on the rectum while leaving the woman still feel all of the sensations that make anal sex so great. | |

Why do you think Aids is much more common among gay men, than it is among straight (men & women) or lesbian females.
.....not anymore.......... | |

That's misleading to most readers of this thread. By percentages its still far more common among gay men in the western world and probably always will be. If you were including Africa then you have a point. But there are a number of other mitigating factors there because the HIV is getting spread along with a variety of other non-fatal things.
Being gay and using needles are still the top risk factors.
Just speaking about the western world...
The fact that there are large numbers of people in the substantially more vast low risk population that have it does not mitigate anal sex as a risk. HIV has low communicability in both oral sex and in straight sex. In fact, the risk of a man getting HIV through unprotected straight sex is about 1:10000 (for women its about 9:10000). If I remember it correctly it wasn't until about 2001 that there was a confirmed case of a man getting HIV through vaginal sex in all of the UK.
Any kind of other disease or infection dramatically increases transmission rates. In fact, that's one of the reasons that its believed that transmission among gay men is so much easier. Unprotected anal sex can lead to minor infections which can increase the level of HIV in the seminal fluid (through blood) and increase transmission rates. That's also one of the critical reasons for the rampant spread in Africa. | |

United States: Transmission Category Estimated # of AIDS Cases, in 2005 Total
Male-to-male sexual contact- 17,230 Injection Drug Use - 8,381 Male-to-male sexual contact and injection drug use - 2,018 High-risk heterosexual contact- 12,388 Other- 523
Oh whoopee, only 5,000 less from heterosexual contact. Sounds like YOU'RE the one misled, my friend. You're a terrible prophet, you know?
WHO'S misleading here? Don't get out much, huh? | |

| Is anal sex safe without a condom? Posted: 10/17/2007 9:43:25 AM | prophet? get out much? That has to do with looking up info on the internet?
The numbers you cite affirm my statement. Thank you. Those are the kind of numbers where I thought you extracted your information and that's why I clearly said percentages. Percentages are all that matter for risk. But you were arguing that HIV is equally common in straight and gay individuals. Given that liberal estimates say gay indivduals make up 5% of the population (10% of male) you are clearly wrong in stating HIV is equally common among gay and straight using the very numbers you cite. Some simple math on the totals you reported shows that in the US the commonness of HIV in gay individuals is about 0.11%. In straight it is approximately 0.0044%. Thus, not nearly as common.
Perhaps an example that's germaine to POF might help. 2 good looking guys in a bar and 100 ugly guys. One of the good looking guys goes home with a hot girl and 1 of the ugly guys does. By your reasoning picking up hot girls is just as common among good looking guys as ugly guys. By my reasoning its more common among good looking guys. Which makes more sense to you?
*interesting, the group that is hetero is "high risk hetero". I looked it up and they mean that group is only heterosexual contact with a person known to have, or to be at high risk for, HIV infection. Wow, that means transmission in hetero outside that group is even lower than I would have guessed. | |

Because it IS. This disease doesn't discriminate at ALL. I've had straight and gay friends die from AIDS. That info was from the CDC, did you see, only 5,000 separates the statistics between gays and heteroes. And that isn't including the number of heteroes who are walking around carrying this virus spreading it without even knowing it. Just stop trying to chalk this disease up as primarily a "gay man's virus". It's exactly that attitude that's making HIV/AIDS spread like it is. Every potential partner should be treated as if they carry this virus until proven otherwise. Bottom line. And some people on here can yap all they want that they fer REAL check their potential partner(s) about this kinda thing, like many swear they do, given the opportunity to meet with someone they dig on here or any other site, hormones start raging, do you REALLY think they're gonna think about or ask about a person's HIV status? No, they don't wanna ruin their chance for a lay. And the band played on.......  | |

| Is anal sex safe without a condom? Posted: 10/17/2007 8:20:09 PM | | What the heck do you mean by equally common OAI? I take it to mean that, if I encounter a straight person they are about as likely to have HIV as a Gay person. Is this how you take it or do you mean something else? Because if that's how you take the stats you posted should you're wrong by a factor of about 25:1. That's not just a little bit wrong. | |
