HIV masturbation analogy

How long does HIV take to be inactivated when it hits the air. I read in an article that it takes 30 seconds to a minute to die. But if it is in a white blood cell it could take longer.

Fine, but how long does it take to be unable to produce?
Does vaginal or cervix fluids have white blood cells? And if yes can HIV be in the white blood that come out in vaginal or cervix fluids? I don't think the white blood cells die immediately when it exposed to the air.

HIV is transmitted by,
Unprotected anal or vaginal sex
Sharing work with other IV drug abusers
Mother to child.

HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host (unlike many bacteria or fungi, which may do so under suitable conditions), except under laboratory conditions, therefore, it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host.

Listen teak, I know you are one of the most knowledgeable ones here. I am sure have done your homework as far as transmission is concerned.
I know that I did not have Anal or vaginal sex at all.

But the fact is that I had vaginal fluids that were rubbed deep inside urethra while it was being irritated, it was deep enough I could see the pink  in my pee hole. I know I am an idiot. But I read in posts that in order for a guy to get infected the virus has to go into the urethra. That is my case, irrespectively of the fact that I did not have vaginal or anal sex. I feel that my situation was worse? I an essence got the fluids in their. Plus the above symptoms indicate I that i probably got a uti And something else. Something seems like it went wrong. I actually tried to be careful witty the exception of irritating deep into my urethra with the fluids, THIS DOES NOT SEEM LIKE YOUR A TYPICAL CASE OF MASTURBATION!

1. people are not high risk. It's your actions that make them a risk.
2. your symptoms have nothing to do with HIV because you didn't have a risk
3. not concerning
4. not an HIV concern
5. not an HIV concern
6. HIV is not transmitted by misturbabon
7. HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host (unlike many bacteria or fungi, which may do so under suitable conditions), except under laboratory conditions, therefore, it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host.

Well I know the following.
1) I paid for sex, she was a hooker, which means she is high risk.
2) I got the main symptoms, swollen nodes without pain, fever headaches to name a few. Which shows I had an infection. At the right ars timeframe of coming and leaving.
3) After my event, I tried to avoid getting sick, but still did.
4) a couple of days after this my penis started burn while I urinated, looked a little red and sticky. Testicles hurted too, prostate area seemed to tremble. These symptoms seem gone now.

5)  Plus I had sharp head pains that affected my eyes, when I was having urine symptoms, might be the computer I use or not. Then about a week later the symptoms above. By the end of ars type symptoms I felt a headache with tingling, doc said it was probably a virus. I am afraid it was ars.
5) fluids got in me, my penis hole was being irritated at the same time.  
6) she did not masturbate me, except she touched my penis in the beginning when she put the condom for oral.
7) fluids were after I touched the vaginal fluids and irritated my penis hole bad while having fluids.

Thank you for your reply. I understand that lack of symptoms does not mean that someone is not infected. However, symptoms like those of ars like the ones that I had is strong evidence something went wrong. I had swollen nodes, fever, and headaches, and slight diareah. Some of my nodes pulsated, like the ones on my right area groin. And other parts.
Mynodes did not hurt. I hardly had a cough. But I had no mucus, which rules out sinus, cold, and flu. Plus I did not kiss anyone so it is not something you get through that method. My symptoms seem gone now, but again it was just the way ars is, it comes and goes.
What makes it worth, before I got the ars type symptoms, my penis was a little red, stick, and burning when I urinate. What is worth I did not have penetrative sex, with the exception of oral with a condom. I paid for sex.
I don't think the article that I cited is that old, I have seen people here site older ones.
My penis was irritated and fluids touched my foreskin and deep into my irritated urethra. The fluids were fresh, the virus must have been still active.

transmission takes place INSIDE the body, as in a penis being INSIDE a vaginal or anus.

there are NO cases of someone contracting hiv through masturbation...it doesnt happen

I put the site up there. You might have missed my post. Let's say it was fluids coming right out of the vaginal mixed with cervix fluids (because this had sex with someone prior). And those fluids involved deep rubbing of foreskin, penis head, and inside penis too the point there was slight irritation. Two weeks later I developed fever and swelling, too name a few.
