Shared drink with stripper

[tbadtiw]

I went to a strip bar and bought drinks for a stripper and myself. Later stripper gave me a couple of lap dances. During the dance, she picked up her drink and made me drink her drink right after taking a sip from it. I took a very small sip using the straw. Later I realized what if the drink had too much of her saliva in it. Does this put me at risk for any STDs or STIs? Please advise. Thanks.

Greetings.
STIs stand for sexually transmitted infections. Sharing drinks is not sex.
STIs are not passed that way.

Thanks for clarifying. It’s much appreciated. I have one more question, can herpes/hpv transmit by sharing drink?

No.

While many people think sharing a drink can spread herpes, it is highly unlikely to happen.

HPV is absolutely not spread this way.

Covid, strep, colds, flus, etc. - those are not STIs and can indeed be spread that way. If you start feeling ill, think of those first, not an STI.

Thank you so much for putting my mind at ease.
