"Do most swinging women and couples practice safe sex or are there risk takers that will go bareback ,and when is it safe for bare back sex to happen after a period of time or after so many meets or should I not even think about it and practise safe sex always ." As they say, it's better to be safe than sorry | |||

"I play bareback and accept the risks that come with it and I'm always upfront and honest with partners so they can make an informed decision on the risks they're taking as well. I've always been selective with my partners and regularly tested, but I'm not ignorant of the fact good luck has played some part. As for others, most people claim safe sex only, and some abide by that principal, but in my experience the majority don't. I've had one sexual partner use a condom, all others bare, including couples and people from all demographics. And that's not just fab members, Tinder users hardly ever play safe, and most others I've spoken to on the swinging or casual sex scenes seem to have the same experience. If you exercise good judgement, take, prep, and are up to date on other vaccines then the laws of averages suggest you'll be alright, but that is far from a guarantee. If you want greater piece of mind then always play safe. Many STIs can be fixed before they do any damage with regular testing and antibiotics, but not all! However, safe sex isn't 100% safe either so even when playing safe it's a good idea to be regularly tested. Remember both safe and unprotected sex can lead to pregnancies too, condoms do leak and break and she might not be on secondary birth control, and no birth control is 100% either. Good luck and have fun xx" A balanced and well thought out and written opinion. What's important is that you always pick the preference of the sager person. E.g. if you want to go bare and she wants to play safe, you respect her wishes. | |||

"As with everything on Fab some will some won't. It for each to decide their own level of risk, you are responsible for your own health nobody else." Wholeheartedly agree. I'm sure everyone prefers without, but the risk means that everyone should at least consider condoms Safelexible | |||

"The fervour with which folk talk of their insistence on safe sex only isn't always matched in the photo galleries." How do you know who the photos are showing? As a lot have said they are bare with a regular partner/spouse and use condoms for everyone else. | |||

"You have to decide what you think is reasonable. Some people have more bare sex than others. The thing to remember is that if someone will have bare sex with you, then they’ll likely do it with everyone else too. If you’re ok with that level of risk then that’s your choice. Personally I think swinging should be safe sex only so we all keep each other as safe as we can, but not everyone feels that way. There are lots of forum threads on it. " The problem is just what is safe sex? Using a condom is safer sex than not using a condom but there are still risks of catching a STI. Those that think using a condom is safe sex are possibly more of a risk than those who don't as at least you can choose to avoid those | |||

So you think people who use condoms are riskier than those who don’t? Safe sex is just the term for people using a condom. Any responsible swinger knows that it doesn’t keep you 100% safe and if you’re regularly engaging in sex with multiple partners you should be being as careful as you can and getting tested. If you avoid folk who play bare and think those who use condoms are risky, who do you play with? | |||

Also the other cocks could be regular partners. Best not judge when you don’t know the facts. Also ‘safe sex’ is no such thing! Stick a condom on after you’ve kissed her and contracted an STI! People don’t seem to understand what safe sex really is. | |||

"I just cannot function in a condom! I couldn’t ever consider it sorry " Just curious and not looking for confrontation, but why do you include Safe Sex on your list of interests? | |||

That’s not a judgement, it’s just a fact. We all know condoms aren’t foolproof, but there are ways to reduce risk. | |||

Do what you do and let others do the same. | |||

Up to them if they do or don't but it's a bit rich when they state they only practice safe sex. | |||

Ok so from a different perspective, they may play bare for fwb, fuck buddies, play partners etc, but on fab they want safe sex to keep their bubble in the clear. Yes it's risky but I know a few people that do this. Regardless, if someone is telling you they only play safe and you can see otherwise then use good judgement about if that's someone you want to sleep with. If you're annoyed because they will go bare with others and not you.. then maybe you need to reassess if you're right for swinging, just because someone consents to something with one person doesn't mean they consent to it with all people and they don't owe it to you to make accommodations. Just move on? | |||

I don’t think anyone thinks that condoms mean you won’t ever catch anything, ever. As you say ‘safe sex’ is the agreed term for using condoms, which reduces the risk of you catching something. Pics often show that someone might say they practice safe sex, but actually don’t. I’d feel more comfortable playing with someone who is careful, than someone I know isn’t. That’s just common sense I think. | |||

Just move on? " ....."but on fab they want safe sex to keep their bubble in the clear."..... For a start that's not how you keep your bubble clear. What a silly statement obviously do not understand the concept behind having a bubble. Secondly if they genuinely wanted their bubble to be clear looking for meets on fab isn't going to do that. Thirdly rather stupid displayed bare back photos on fab if that's the impression they are trying to give others. Sorry not convinced by your statements. Also to suggest the previous poster us jealous that others get to meet them and not him as a reason for his comment is clearly juvenile and displays an ineptitude at reading what is said. It does no good to any post if people deliberately twist what others say in order to counter argue. Just shows them up. Stay true and listen twice and respond intelligently to add to a discussion everyone. | |||

""Tha's better wear thee wellies if tha's gonna go paddling!" as we say here in Yorkshire. LOL On a serious note the only way to have completely safe sex is to be celibate. Anything else is just risk management at the end of the day. Condoms as people say on here already aren't actually safe sex (they're not guaranteed contraceptives even) BUT they do go a long way to keeping all individuals safe. People being open and honest helps too but can't sadly be relied on. So the answer is we don't have a risk free world unless we hide under a rock but same as say driving a car there are certain measures we can take to ensure we arrive at our destination (hopefully) in one piece. " Great answer!! I expect a lad to bring his wellies. My first sexual partner instilled safe sex habits in me that have lasted a lifetime, thanks BG. | |||
