Is this considered as safe sex in HIV's context?
Hi, I would like to thank all the moderators and contributors who answer so many questions in this forum.
I would like to ask, is it true that the risk of HIV transmission via vaginal fluids from hand-to-genital transmission is impossible, even if the vaginal fluids was only exposed to the air for a second?
I was in a shower with someone and then she mastirbating herself by rubbing her vaginal and inserting a finger, it was dripping wet and then she immediatly used it to touch my urethra and foreskin so as to masturbate me. I am a little bit worried as I had read that HIV enters the body mostly through the skin under the foreskin which has Langerhan's cells that pull the HIV in and not through the urethra.
I did visit the POZ forum and the moderators there insist that vaginal fluids are not infectious, provided that it was produced on the outside and that HIV dies instantly when exposed to the air
However, in my context, the fluid was passed straight from the vagina to the penis's urethra and foreskin. Is there any risk?
If the context matters, my penis was fully errect with the foreskin peeled back and it was already wet with water and soap.

That is incorrect and you should have said However, in my context, the dead hiv in the fluid that was exposed to air was passed straight from the vagina to the penis's urethra and foreskin. Dead hiv can't come back to life.

The only risks for HIV in adults are:
1) Having unprotected anal or vaginal sex, or
2) sharing intravenous needles with IV drug users.
You cannot get HIV from hands, even if the hands have blood or fluid on them - not from your hands, and not from anyone else's hands.
If you do not engage in any of the activities I mentioned above with someone HIV+ or whose HIV status is unknown to you, you will NEVER have to worry about getting HIV. There is no information you could add about this event that would make it a risk for HIV.
