Question:
Is it safe to receive oral sex from an escort/prostitute as long as I wear a condom?

Answer:
by Mitchell Tepper: (05/18/2004)
I can only talk in relative risks here. If used correctly, it is safer than not using one but not fool proof. People often think in terms of HIV these days but you can also get herpes or HPV (genital Warts) around your genitals if your partner has an active virus.
