[Question #13585] Anal/Penis Rubbing HIV

1 days ago

My unknown status partner was lying on the bed. We were doing anal rubbing, with me sitting on top of his penis.

His penis went between my butt cheeks, but there was no penetration. At most, his penis touched my anus hole, but there was definitely no insertion because if there had been, it would have required intention and effort. (His penis do not enter my anus hole)

Is this situation a risk for HIV? During the rubbing, some of his fluids might have touched between my butt cheeks or come into contact with the mouth of my anus hole. Is there any HIV risk or none? Do I need to get a blood test in this case? Is this consider a safe sex ?

Thanks Dr.Hook

Welcome back to the Forum. Apparently you do not know whether your partner has untreated HIV of not and statistically it is unlikely that he has. Further, even if he does, the activity you describe is safe sex and mutual masturbation and there is agreement among virtually all experts, as well as the WHO and US DCD that mutual masturbation is a no risk activity for HIV acquistion. If there is no penetration, there is no risk. This is true even if there is contact with a partner's genital secretions.

There is to scientific reason for testing. Some clients chose to test for added reassurance but I see no nee for that, particularly given your fears of acquiring HIV from blood draws that we discussed recently. That said, testing is a personal choice and if you choose to test, I am confident that the results will show that you were not infected. Please don't worry. EWH

So even if his secretions touch the mouth of my anus, as long as there is no penetration, it is still considered no risk, right?

You think it’s NO RISK, not low risk — unlike some few online forums that tend to write it that way.

And this is a mutual agreement among the CDC, WHO, and most experts. ?

I don’t know why I worry so much about infection, but I love having activities with my partners, so I try to get information from experts like you so I won’t feel so anxious, Thanks you Dr.Hook

I understand that you’re nervous but repeating my response is not going to change it. If there was no penetration, there was no risk. This is the concensus of experts, the CDC, and the WHO. EWH
