ORIGINAL: RedMagic1 That statement is dead wrong. There are risks of intestinal diseases, etc. Getting a periodic blood panel is not sufficient. One example, among many: C'mon... Giardia?!? That list is seriously grasping. It'd be like listing haemophilia and compartmental hematoma among the risks of spanking. Do both occur? Absolutely. Are both dangerous? Beyond a shadow of a doubt. Are either a real concern? Hardly. If you've got haemophilia, there's worse ways to find out, and you most likely already do know. If you're striking hard enough to have a real (i.e. above background risk levels) chance of causing compartmental hematoma without knowing how to recognize and deal with it, then it's the least of your worries. By no means do I take Giardia lightly. People in my small town have died from it due to a glitch at the water plant. Some are still ill, years later. Most recovered with no ill effect from it, which is the usual case. It's a very serious illness, but it also requires consuming water that has been infected and remained unprocessed (on the part of the top, I mean, as it can obviously be passed on once one actually has it), and it is usually curable. Listing E.coli is moot, as the strains will have synchronized in a household among the fluid bonded pairs (and the OP was discussing in the context of a relationship, which tends to imply both of those two things by the time you'd be starting scat play). That doesn't even take into account the amount of environmental exposure to it (have you accepted any small change today?). Hepatitis and the like, now that's worth putting up there, but in the context set forth by the OP, it would seem logical to assume that we're dealing with responsible adults (who will thus have themselves tested anyway), and that we're dealing with an intimate adult couple (which usually implies fluid bonding at some point in time, which makes the bit about Hepatitis rather redundant). While there are people who bill themselves public toilets and the like, that's not the impression the OP gave. As such, that list you pasted is simply FUD, which is no substitute for real info. Overstating risk makes you no more risk aware than understating it. Health, al-Aswad.
