Herpes/STD Transmission

Dear Dr. HHH,
You have explained earlier on the Herpes/STD forum that no STD can be contracted through clothing.

But here's what I still don't understand:
1) if a man's body ejaculation/body fluids come into direct contact with my skin (through clothes, his jeans and my thin jeans since we were making out with clothes still on), is it possible that the Herpes virus (assuming he's shedding) goes into the fluid and reaches my skin and can thus be transmitted?

2)Does the fluid onto my skin bring with it herpes-to-skin contact? and 3)Is it possible to contract Herpes this way?

4) Are the clothes like a filter? I thought viruses were so small that they can even get through fabric?

I'm still worried, and this is freaking me out.
Thank you for explaining.

Didn't you ask this question on the doctor's side of the forum? That means you paid money to hear a professional response.  What was it about his response that you find unacceptable or don't you understand?

You weren't at risk.

Time to move on.

You already had these questions answered by HHH on his forum. We aren't going to give you different answers here.
