Sankies and Safe Sex

Only on the gringa side....

On the sankie side instilling trust in his victims in a short time is part of the sankie business.

Other stuff is irrelevant.

Frankly, I have very little info or knowledge, and you will get better advice from others.
I guess I was just trying to get you started, with the tiny amount of info I have.
I'm sure you will get tons of good advice from those who are "in the know".

Good point...it's in the interest of the sankie to make sure that trust and confianza is felt by the female tourist...

Who would understand what you are talking about, and why you chose this topic for your thesis. I don't get it.

Sankies that work in resorts get tested for HIV when they first get hired to work in resorts. I don't know if there are follow up tests required and if so how often. I'll see if I can find out.

Sankies perform sex on the fly and if you (the tourist) doesn't have a condom, they won't.

If you go to a cabana, they provide them for you.

Trust and condom use go hand in hand. As mentioned, having unprotected sex in this day in age is stupid, especially with a one timer on a vacation.

this might just be my own oppinion but the animation team member who tried to bed me had a condom and put it on straight away.... maybe it was cause i am so young... but it didnt put me at ease it made me question why this guy carried around a condom with him at work..... but hey thats just me and i was in the dark about sankies at the time!

Nonsense.
This is a myth which both the sankies and the sex seeking gringas perpetuate.
The former because of business reasons, the latter because of calming themselves and fooling others.

I'm extremely doubtful. I can't imagine any university in New York City or anywhere in the academic world that would permit their graduate students to collect information in this manner. Normally you sit down with the interview subject get informed consent, right to publish, details about how the information will be used, how the identity will be protected, information about the method etc. Which university are you with? Who is your faculty advisor?

I'm taking a wild guess here that maybe it's about condom use in general and by doing a web search she came up with DR1 many many times as we have discussed this subject a few dozen times and perhaps having read the rules about every subject having to have a DR content ( not like some people we know ) she has gone with sankie pankie.

But let's wait for her answer.

Look at her words carefully
