You all need to know that HIV is NOT spread throgh oral sex

If HIV isn't spread through kissing and making out..and then how is it spread by putting your genitals in someone's mouth...if the person you kissed had cuts all over his/her mouth, then how is oral sex anymore likely of a risk?
Hope this helps everyone who has anxiety.Really, just think about it.

What do you say to the studies done, yes actual studies done where a couples, 1 being HIV+ the other HIV- had protected vaginal and anal sex but unprotected oral sex and no one who was negative got HIV. This was a 10 year study and over 18,000 acts of unprotected oral sex was done.

The problem with people reporting after the fact is that they often lie, don't remember other risks they had done. So this thing in Honkkong is a joke compaired to an actual study done. And to give you more info there was a study done in SF which back up this 1st study.

Google the Spain study and the SF study and get real education.

Well if you had intercourse with no condom, the HIV virus goes through the penis hole and enters the bloodstream or it can enter the vagina or anus and I guess, attacks the membrane. However, with oral sex..there is no risk and I wasn't aware of this last summer and it ruined a huge portion of my summer because I was so scared that I HIV because of oral sex..You have nothing to worry about, but you still shouldn't go around giving/recieving oral sex to any random people because you CAN get other STD's..just not HIV.

What I can think of is this:
in kissing, unlike genital/oral, the virus is exposed to saliva from both mouths (double concentration of saliva).

What I dont understand is that on genital/oral it is said that the virus/blood can enter through the tip of penis. But how will this virus/blood get into the bloodstream? Anyone can explain?
