Sex education for REALLY promiscuos people? (lemmy.eco.br)

So...

I've always been quiet and never had much sex. That has changed. I'm in the kind of phase that people look at me and say: "You were so nice! What went wrong!?" And now I'll have sex with men, women, ~~hookers~~ escorts, ~~trannys~~ not fully transitioned MtoF transsexuals, robots, I'll probably engage in BDSM, piss play, breath play, and other exotic activities. I won't engange in drugs/chemsex that's where I draw the line.

Thus, the advice I've always been given and followed looks a little inadequate. Somehow saying to just use condoms, pills and IUD looks like insufficient knowledge to the kind of behavior I'll engage in.

Therefore I need to up my game into sex ed and STIs knowledge and prevention. I've been looking inton PrEP, but I really need to read more about diseases and prevention to protect myself and be able to treat myself if I catch something.

Any suggestion of videos, books, and other learning resources that goes beyond the "just use a condom and have a single partner?"

We can't say hookers anymore?

You can say whatever you want, just like always. But sex workers and their allies don't have to like or support you using demeaning terms to refer to them that they don't like.

If you want to be a decent, considerate person, just refer to them as sex workers (instead of hookers, or prostitutes, etc. Some don't like the term escort, either.) It's not hard.

Sex workers is a more broad term though, is there a term for sex workers who have sex with customers?

Good question! I meant to mention this in my comment, whoops! Thanks for asking. Full-service sex workers or FSSWs

Right?

In General we don’t.
