Frottage and Genital apposition

[mikey29287]

Hello everyone!
I understand that frottage is not a risk for Hiv, however I thought that frottage and genital apposition were the same thing?
Can someone please explain to me the difference between the two and whether genital apposition is considered a risk?
Thanks.

It's been a while since I've posted on the hiv forum with concerns.
I'm looking for what's the difference between the two. I thought they were the same?
That is all.

There seems to be a distinction between the two activities here as noted by the doctor in the expert forum
