Regular testing is much more sensible.

Oral sex carries many STI risks but just about no-one even considers a condom for that.

Safety first and bareback is hands down the best.

Swinging is a risk assessment. In an ideal world we wouldn't need protection. It's all a matter of the level of risk your willing to take for your pleasure and that is a personal choice. No sex is 100% risk free. For use bareback is exclusively between the two of us. However we both are happy with oral unprotected as is by far the norm on the scene. It's not risk free but this is the ballance of risk and pleasure we're comfortable with. And we have in the passed still been tested to reduce that risk futher.

The idea of bareback is great. We often talk about the idea of Mrs and another woman bent over and me slipping in and out of them both of them seamlessly. But of course in reality this would not be practical unless it was someone we were comfortable with and trusted 100% to be safe with. I get there are circles of bareback swingers who test regularly and only bareback within that circle. However that is putting a lot of trust in other people and the bigger that circle gets the more liable it is to someone breaking that trust and risking everone.

You could make that happen with a female condom. #justsaying

"How is regular testing more sensible than condoms? Surely both? Regular testing won't help you if you've already contracted HIV..."

Because regular testing will catch any infections before it does long term damage. People who think condoms are 100% safe and don't get regular tests are ignorant of their status.

I used to be a sexual health outreach worker and the number of women who get infected by their partners because she believed he was monogamous.

I am on PrEP and get tested every 12 weeks without fail and I enjoy my bareback sex very much!

Oh and also to add... I ALWAYS have a chat with a new shag about responsible sexual health. Even though I know I enjoy bareback, I'm allowing him the space to be responsible and to use condoms if that would make him feel safer and less anxious. Because I know he's cheating behind his partner's back, but it's not my place to judge him.

Very, very true.

I wish some people would do a little research or visit their local clinic/ charity and ask the professionals advice.

There is so much misinformation around.

Regular testing will give you a very good chance of identifying an STI with no obvious symptoms and so could hopefully stop further unnecessary spread if it.

It could also help you get treatment and stop you being unwell or even stop infertility in some case.

As for HIV transmission then if that is the case, early recognition and a plan for treatment is advisable too.

It can stop the progression and control any other issues.

HIV is now a managed illness where people can live a long and normal life.

With good treatment and the education about that being available, we take away the stigma and fear so that everyone reslises that it is more like diabetes etc now.

The advances in medicine are huge in comparison to even 10/15 years ago

"Bring back the 70s and 80s only used them then for birth control "

Prep seems to be swinging things back that way and I worry about the increase in STDs that will cause, and arguably already is..

As an aside, if you review academic research and the thoughts of practicing GUM physicians, oral sex is pretty close to safe sex. The transmission route is pretty ineffective for STDs and the amount of transmission vs the amount of acts of oral is very small.

In our experience its difficult enough finding legitimate couples we click with and we don't swing often enough for this to be a primary concern. You take each meet as it comes but we certainly wouldn't go to something like a bareback gang bang or play bare in a club with folk we don't know.

When we fist met at a friends wedding we fucked without a condom that same night. We didn't die or get any disease, but we did end up married.

I highly doubt you are going to find anyone who actually prefers safe sex, but most will practice it.

For us, it's bare at home and safe elsewhere by and large. The playmates we have had for literally multiple years however, well there's a degree of trust there that can mean bare is possible if desired

Testing is like an MOT, only valid until you leave the testing centre. Say your all clear at the test, your next test is maybe 6 weeks away, that leaves 5 weeks 6 days to get an infection and pass it on to others.I started swinging with friends in the mid 70s, things were different then. But since starting again in the 90s it's always been with condoms, had some great experiences with lots of couples but none worth dying or risking my/our health for. The only bareback we do is between us.

Amazing how many people on here claim condoms only but when you talk to them or meet them they say they love bareback.

I play bare, I test regularly and I’m selective about who I meet. What I also find crazy is the people who will only have “safe sex” but don’t get tested.

If you may allow me to summarise the various views...

1. There is no such thing as "safe" sex, there is only "safer" sex. All sex is with some risk, even with condoms.

2. There are currently reports of a new strain of MPox and antibiotic resistant Gonnorroea. Be careful out there, folks.

3. Some people (like me) on PrEP who do enjoy BB with select people (eg they all on PrEP themselves) are still cautious. If you're going attend BB gangbangs several times a week, you're exposing yourself to much higher risks.

4. So a compromise could be get tested every 12 weeks, get on PeEP and enjoy BB selectively.

5. However, even if you use protection, it may still be wise to get checked occasionally (six monthly?) to ensure you are not carrying any symptomless infections that could do long term damage.

6. Finally, it is lovely to see couples who only BB with each other. That is real commitment, making BB sex special.

So how is testing regular regarded safe? It only has to be one person who has an std to have sex with you within them 6 weeks, you have sex with say 4 other people.. they have sec with 4 other people.. how fast an std can spread in 6 weeks and some people don’t show symptoms
