To The Experts

I have under gone this forum . And you experts suggest that ORAL sex ( to women or from women ) is  not and a way of transmission of HIV .  And i have noticed experts like Teak posted some links from cdc.gov website referring some points about Elisa testings . But the same website says that ORAL  is at risk of HIV transmission
http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/resources/qa/transmission.htm

Even Its says they are some documented cases are there who got HIV transmitted thorough ORAL

How the suggestions differs ?

Thanks

the CDC is an ultra-conservative governmental agency who deals with the scientific side of infectious diseases...hence theoretical vs. practical.  (it is theoretically possible for me to suffer spontaneous combustion in the next 5 seconds).  

we deal with the practical side on this forum.  there has never been a verified / documented case of anyone contracting hiv from oral sex alone.  there are numerous studies that have been done...long term...that PROVES this point.

this forum is FULL of posts and arguments regarding oral sex...i suggest you get busy reading because this is the end of this discussion ! ! !
