COB meaning

What COB means

COB stands for come on body, meaning ejaculation on the body. It is one of a small family of abbreviations on escort profiles, and it is usually read alongside CIM and CIF. Each of them refers to something different, and a lady's feelings about one say nothing about her feelings about the others.

The term usually refers to the chest, stomach or back, although where exactly is something to be agreed, not assumed. If the face is what someone has in mind, that is CIF, and it is treated as a separate matter altogether.

Seeing it on a profile

COB tends to appear in the list of what a lady enjoys, and our COB page gathers the ladies who mention it. Seeing it there is useful information, nothing more. It does not amount to a commitment, and it does not mean anything is part of the rate, which covers her time and companionship only.

Each lady decides what she is comfortable with, and that decision can change from one meeting to the next. She might be happy with it one day and not another, and she does not have to explain herself. If it is not on a lady's profile, take that as your answer.

Hygiene and health

This activity is generally considered lower risk than those involving the mouth, but that does not make it risk free. Some infections can pass if fluid comes into contact with broken skin, the eyes, or the genitals. Herpes and genital warts can also spread by skin to skin contact, whether or not there is any fluid. Keep things clean, and avoid contact with cuts, grazes or the eyes.

Think about practicalities as well. Having a towel close by and a shower within easy reach is good manners, as is keeping away from her hair and clothes unless she has told you otherwise. Washing afterwards is sensible for both of you. Condoms remain the safer choice for intimate contact in general. If you have symptoms or concerns, see your GP or an NHS sexual health service, which is free and confidential.

Consent first, always

Agree it before the moment arrives, not during it. Springing anything on someone, even something you think is harmless, is not on. It is a matter of basic respect, and ignoring what someone has agreed to can be a serious matter. If she has asked you to do something differently or asked you not to, follow her lead without argument.

The same goes in the other direction. You are also free to say what you would and would not like, and to change your mind.

How to raise it politely

You do not need to say anything about this when you call. Give us her name and a time, and we check she is free, confirm the price and arrange the rest.

With her in person, choose a relaxed moment and keep your language plain. For instance, your profile mentions COB, is that alright with you today, and is there anywhere you would rather I avoided. That second part is a lovely thing to ask, because it shows you care about her comfort as well as your own. If you are still learning the vocabulary, see our A to Z of escort terms.
