Clarification in a older post.

Hi, Scarleteen ...

So, I just looking for some clarification about one post : http://www.scarleteen.com/forum/ultimat ... 00223.html

Specifically in the part that saids: - By touching the hands of someone with a penis, including if there may have been ejaculate on the hands.

This doesn't posses pregnancy risk even if we're talking about wet "fresh" semen and if a person with a vulva touched their vulva directly after she touched the fresh semen on those hands?

Thanks ... :D

Yep, the post you linked to is still correct! Pregnancy does not result from a person using their hands to touch a penis with ejaculate on it, then touching their hands to someone else's hands, and then having that person's hands touch a vulva.

I encourage you to read our piece Human Reproduction: A Seafarer's Guide. Getting a clear understanding of how human reproduction works is helpful and important when engaging sexually with a partner.
