If you are a new escort in Geneva you are bound to have a few anxious thoughts about the competitive nature of the job or the unpredictability of the market. These are familiar concerns for many freelancers. In addition, new recruits in the adult industry can feel uneasy about the impact of the work on their health. Sometimes it is wrongly accepted that sexually transmitted diseases are almost inevitable – a part and parcel of the occupation.  This is far from accurate. The dangers for the sexual health of professional companions are real but not unavoidable - they can be managed and mitigated. As a professional escort girl, it is important that you make informed decisions using your own discretion after carefully weighing up the risks. Paid sex is not, by definition, a reckless activity. In fact, the opposite is true – adult industry professionals need to be healthy and at least reasonably fit to practice successfully and earn continuously. Many of them take very good care of their physical and mental well-being.  Of course, being intimate with a great number of partners can make you vulnerable to infections; therefore there is a lot of emphasis on safe sex in the industry. Ever since the AIDS epidemic gripped the world in the mid-80s of the last century, the condom has been the preferred method of protection from sexually transmitted infections amongst all sex workers. In the past, Geneva escort agencies adopted the rule of using condoms for all types and varieties of sex and made it compulsory for all companions on their books. Call girls who agreed to have sex without a condom faced financial penalties or even dismissal if found. Condom manufacturers fulfilled their part of the deal by broadening the range of their fares and introducing a mindboggling variety of flavors, tastes and textures. Sex with condoms nowadays is not seen as boring or timid, and by and large professional companions always use condoms as a standard measure of protection in their job. Most of the clients understand this and accept it without questioning.

 In the meanwhile, the world has moved on, changed by medical advances and treatment breakthroughs. The possibility of infections is not eliminated, but prevention, early diagnosis, and successful therapies have alleviated the fears of many who previously felt the risks of unprotected sex were unacceptably high.  In recent years there has been a marked return of the bareback sex, with clients requesting it and some swiss escorts practicing it. The agencies are now mostly tolerant to different views – they can advise, but cannot impose their will on individual workers.

 And yes, occasionally clients prefer sex without a condom and openly state their wishes. There is no need to be evasive about it – some men abhor the rubber and want to experience skin-to-skin touch. It makes them super horny and fits in with their idea of wild, unrestrained, raw sex with a professional courtesan. Some find condoms awkward to use and would prefer at least some of the sexual activity, such as oral sex, to be carried out without it. Although the general rule is to use condoms for all types of sex, in reality, a healthy-looking mouth without visible sores or ulcers should pose a low risk for HIV infection during a blow job. Some Lausanne escorts, therefore, practice oral sex without and penetrative sex with a condom, which usually matches the customer’s expectations.  No client should ever insist, coerce or force the escort girl to have any form of unprotected sex with him. Some escort girls can be tempted by higher payments for sex without protection. Oral sex provided without the use of condoms is against the law on prostitution and it puts prostitutes at risk of suffering from sexually transmitted diseases.

 So why do some companions go for sex without a condom?

Some can feel more willing to have unprotected sex with a client they know very well. Escort girls with loyal and regular customers establish something of a relationship with them. It allows them to gain a great deal of insight into their personal life. They often have very intimate knowledge of the client’s individual circumstances, habits and behaviour. In such a context, unprotected sex might feel relatively safe. In fact, sex in such a scenario can be a lot safer than the antics of promiscuous youngsters on a summer holiday. It is not simply a matter of trust, but of statistics – for a few customers sexual contact with a professional prostitute is the only intimate experience they would have in the course of a month or two.  

 With the introduction of the girlfriend experience and the rise of its popularity, there has been a corresponding surge in condom-free sex between escorts and clients. The experience mimics closely the familiarity and affection between a romantic couple. There are cuddles, caressing and deep kissing. This creates special chemistry and a context where sex without protection feels natural and authentic. However, clients cannot assume this automatically as part of the deal. Many escort girls from Lausanne can offer it as an exclusive and luxury service, but it depends on whether it feels safe and appropriate. Deep French kissing is usually considered risk-free because the saliva does not have the potential to transmit the infections at the same rate as other bodily fluids.  

Both agencies and individual sex workers try to ensure a good standard of safety in the industry. As a first step, they all recognize the likelihood of sexually transmitted infections in this line of work – the more open and honest they are about it, the better measures they will have in place. Sex workers are not at the mercy of chance when communicating with customers of various backgrounds and sexual habits. The girls enforce rules with clients they consider high risk and relax the measures only if they offer exclusive service to a very limited number of customers. And, of course, they have regular access to health services and go through routine screenings.
