An important question about HJ
by worried_sleepless, May 08, 2008 11:36PM
Dear friends,
Every1 around this forum knows that Genital to hand to genital contact poses no risk
of HIV transmission, My doubts here are.
1) Is it becasue the ( significant amount of ) vaginal fluids come in contact with the air,
and as soon as it hits the air all the HIV in it become inactive ? is this true for a significant
amount of vaginal fluids also ( or the actual reason is it needs to dry up )
2) Does one definitely need to penetrate inorder to get the fluids such as vaginal into
the urethra to infect a person ( considering no cuts )
3) why i ask this is i myself underwent some trauma about HJ with vaginal fluids in hand
and a few experience members said its a no risk, and i realsied the same and moved on
but these above 2 qustions are always on my mind, i would appreciate if some1 could throw some light
on them
Thank you all
