can I get HIV from tougue kiss
I went to a gay bar last night and kissed a boy(tougue kiss,about 1 mins,and maybe 3 times ). He also touched my penis. If he was infected with HIV, would I be infected?
The only ways that adults get HIV is from unprotected vaginal or anal sex (penetrating) or sharing IV drug needles. Kissing is not a risk in any way. Even if you add tongue kissing in there. And touching a penis is not a risk either. Air and saliva both inactivate the virus. No one has ever gotten HIV from this type of activity. So, you had no risk and do not need to worry.
