non-penetrative penile-vaginal contact
Hi,
What are the chances of a female getting hiv from non-penetrative penile-vaginal contact?
I was dating a guy last year who on a couple of occasions tried to penetrate me. I stopped him before he could get all the way in and we finished off the sex orally or with a hand job. I know transmission rates are lower when no semen is involved and that although pre-cum carries hiv, the quantities are often believed not to be great enough to cause infection.
Any help or shared similar experiences would be greatly appreciated. I normally wouldn't be so worried, but I found out later the guy was also seeing other women at the same time, and if he would try to penetrate me without protection, why not them as well?
