soylentgreen was given the facts before you posted. The use of sex toys is not a risk of contracting HIV.

Guys,
I didn't mean to offend anyone of to come off the wrong way.  I also don't think it's fair for soylentgreen for us to be having this discussion here.  I think Dr. H explains it best in the following:  http://www.medhelp.org/posts/show/548350

Doesn't matter where one lives. You do not contract HIV outside it's host.

If you're living in the US, chances are really good she does NOT have HIV.  Therefore, you couldn't have gotten it from the sex toy.
