Hello ..
Just want to e sure i guess. Last night I went to a strip club and received a private lap dance. I remained clothed the whole time. The stripper was nude part of the dance. I remained fully clothed the entire time.  Does this pose a risk for HIV or anything for that matter.

Thank you

Welcome back to our forum. I’ll be glad to comment. 

The events that you describe did not put you at risk for HIV or any other STI. As you said in a summary of an earlier discussion with Dr. Handsfield, if you do not engage in unprotected vaginal or anal intercourse and do not share needles to take drug drugs, you are not at risk for HIV. The events that you describe did not put you at risk for HIV or any other STI. There is no reason for concern and certainly no reason for testing. EWH.

The presence of secretions anywhere on her body, including your hands or any cuts or scratches on her hands would make no difference whatsoever. No matter how you slice it this was a no risk event. EWH.---
