ORAL

What are the chances of getting HIV from either cunnilingus (eating a girl out) or receiving oral sex from a woman without a condom? I have done both recently and am concerned. Thank you.

Re-read my comments above.  

Yes!!  I agree with the nurse.  Three quarters of the population would have HIV if it were spread that easily.

I spoke to a nurse as well and he said he has never heard of anyone getting HIV from cunnulingus. He said I'df that were the case, he lesbian community would have as big of a HIV problem as the gay community does. (Which it does not) Would you agree with that?

HIV is not transmitted though oral sex.  Either giving or receiving.  Too many enzymes in the saliva that cause the virus to be inactive.  Thus, not allowing infection.

Plus, HIV is a fragile virus.  Once in the environment it starts to break down instantly.  The virus has to be transmitted INSIDE the body.
