Sharing a towel with an HIV partner?
« on: August 03, 2012, 04:21:15 am »
Okay here's my story.
She gave me a blow job with my condom on and I also gave her a blow job with her condom on. I lay on the bed and she do fucking for me with my condom on and she applied some gel in her anus or my penis? Not sure. Doing this for about 3 or 4 minutes then I'm not really sure what did really happened! My condom was on her hand, maybe she take it out or it did slipped off? She did ask me a question when the condom was on her hand, "Have you cum?" Okay just make an assumption if the condom has slipped off or she took it off. Am I in a risk?

Ken, from what you have described it seems as if you were wearing a condom while having intercourse with her. The only confirmed risks for the sexual transmission of HIV are unprotected vaginal and anal intercourse. So as long as the insertive partner was wearing a condom you were protected.

Nothing else you have described would have put you at risk for HIV.

If you are in doubt about whether you were wearing a condom for intercourse then get tested at 3 months.

I'm wondering why you are confused about this. Were you drinking excessively during this incident? If so, that's a bad idea to mix alcohol and casual sex and it's something to be avoided in the future.

Ken,

To answer your question, "Does your penis [feel] oily or wet after wearing a condom?" - the answer is yes, it can.

If you're asking this question because you're worried about small holes, stop it. When condoms break it's not about small holes, it's about huge rips, tears or holes. You would notice a broken condom.

Ken,

STOP creating new threads every time you have another question.

I've merged your new thread into your original thread - where you should post all your additional thoughts or questions. It helps us to help you when you keep everything in one thread. It doesn't matter how long it has been since you last posted in your thread or if the subject matter is different.

If you need help finding your thread when you come here, click on the "Show own posts" link under your name in the left-hand column of any forum page.

Please also read through the Welcome Thread so you can familiarize yourself with our Forum Posting Guidelines. Thank you for your cooperation.




Of course you can share a towel with someone who is hiv positive and not become infected.

Hiv is transmitted by:

Unprotected anal or vaginal intercourse.

Sharing drug injecting equipment.

From mother to child while in the womb or during birth.

If you haven't engaged in one of those three activities, then you have NOT been at risk for hiv infection.

If you read the Welcome Thread before posting like you're supposed to, you will have read the following posting guideline:

Quote

Anyone who continues to post excessively, questioning a conclusive negative result or no-risk situations, will be subject to a four week Time Out (a temporary ban from the Forums). If you continue to post excessively after one Time Out, you may be given a second Time Out which will last eight weeks. There is no third Time Out - it is a permanent ban. The purpose of a Time Out is to encourage you to seek the face-to-face help we cannot provide on this forum.


Please consider yourself warned!

Hey Ann, how if the HIV positive's fluids are on the towel and I used the towel to wipe my exposure part?

Ken,

Hiv is a fragile, difficult to transmit virus that is primarily transmitted INSIDE the human body, as in unprotected anal or vaginal intercourse where the virus never leaves the confines of the two bodies.

Once outside the body, small changes in temperature, and pH and moisture levels all quickly damage the virus and render it unable to infect. For this reason, any fluids containing hiv that are outside the body and on objects in the environment like towels are not infectious.

Not one person has ever been infected from a towel (or sheet or doorknob or spoon or fork or cup or whatever) and you will not be the first.

Hiv is transmitted by:

Unprotected anal or vaginal intercourse.

Sharing drug injecting equipment.

From mother to child while in the womb or during birth.

AND THAT'S IT.

If you haven't engaged in one of those three activities, then you have NOT been at risk for hiv infection.

You are still under a time out warning.

Ken,

NO!!!

You're obviously not paying attention to a single thing you've been told here.

I'm giving you that time out you've been warned about. Do not attempt to create a new account to get around your time out because if you do, you will be permanently banned.
