Lesbian risk?
I know oral sex is zero risk or a negligible risk (no proven cases), the cases reported then released information the people also had anal sex which gave them the virus, 19,000 study where hiv + and hiv - couples only practiced oral sex none got infected, virus is inactivated in saliva etc etc. My question is, since that’s true how do lesbians become infected?
Having a determinate sexual orientation doesn't mean that those women don't have heterosexual relationships along their lives, which could be a risk in case they didn't use condom for anal/vaginal sex. Also sharing needles to inject drugs is a risk, so if hey have done any of those things they would be running a risk of getting HIV.
