Anal exposure
Hi Forum.
I am a bisexual male and had a very brief anal sex encounter with a guy who said he was HIV negative (who knows if he was telling the truth though....). I used a condom and I am 99% sure it did NOT fail, but how would i know? The condom was his. The anal sex only lasted about 30 seconds and I checked the condom after and it looked fine. I am pretty sure I never really fully penetrated anyways - it was just too cumbersome so I stopped and bailed.
Should I get tested or am I probably ok?
Thank you!!!

Thank you - One last question - can you tell whether you're using a lamb skin condom or polyurethane condom? I heard the feel is much different and I'm asking b/c I know lamb skin condoms are not effective in preventing HIV and the condom I used wasn't provided by me.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.
