Threesum HIV risk

Hi I recently had a Threesum with my partner who is male with another male we all used condoms, my partner used some lube to have anal sex with the other guy after my partner fingered me anal

Would there be any HIV risks to me if my partner used his same finger to finger me (when he used the same finger to to have anal sex with the other guy ( ie used lube to finger the other guys anis befor he had protected anal sex,) I'm concerened if any secretions of any sort was on my partners finger before he started to finger me which only lasted for a minute or so
Thanks
Ryan

HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host (unlike many bacteria or fungi, which may do so under suitable conditions), except under laboratory conditions; therefore, it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host.


HIV is transmitted by;
Unprotected penetrative anal and/or vaginal sex
Sharing works with other IV drug abusers
Mother to child

Hey teak I'm a male and my girl wants to give me a threesum with another girl right. My question is if I use one condom to have sex with both women example take out my penis out of one and insert it in the other with the same condom is either of the women at risk of contractind an std.

Among experts, it's a semantic issue about using terms like "no risk" and "very low risk". There is no difference between my or Dr. Hook's use of "low risk" and other experts' "no risk".

Move on.

There is no debate (among experts) about the HIV risks associated with oral sex. The risk is so low that almost nobody who cares for HIV infected patients has ever had a patient believed to have been infected that way. Among experts, it's a semantic issue about using terms like "no risk" and "very low risk". There is no difference between my or Dr. Hook's use of "low risk" and other experts' "no risk".

Ann? Who are you talking to?

Why would have a 3-some matter? The answer is the same if you had an orgy. It is not a risk, HIV is fragile and is not active shortly after leaving the body and is easily damaged.

Ann.. But the previous post I didn't have a threesum this time I had a threesum so is there still a risk, surely screations from the anal area can carry the HIV virus right??

It has been gone over with you in the past that fingering is not a risk of HIV transmission. Go back and reread the replies that you have been given in earlier threads.

No Ryan, if there are no unprotected anal insertions by penis involved, there's no HIV risk to worry. Oral and fingering don't count at all.

hi thanks for your quick response,
you say its not transmitted by fingering, but if he had anal secretions when he fingered the other guy before practicing anal sex, on him, the he fingered me surely they would be a risk hear right? his finger had anal secretions etc? or even with this there is still NO risk?
