Hello, So about a week ago I fingered my gf of four years. Before I did this though I washed my hands thoroughly with cold water and soap. Recently my gf has been looking online and many sites say that you have to wash your hands with warm/hot water to kill the sperm that is on your hands. I had masturbated 10 minutes before so I thought I was being responsible by washing my hands for a minute or two with cold water and soap. However, now she is worried that she may get pregnant because the water I used to wash the sperm off my hands was cold water. I didn't think it really mattered what temperature the water was as long as you washed your hands? Am I correct?
P.S. I hope I am not double posting....I thought I posted this question a couple minutes ago but it never showed up...so I am truly sorry if I am double posting. I am new to this site.

Washing your hands with water of any temperature will kill sperm - they really are not that hardy. There is absolutely no risk of pregnancy here.

Hah, yes, sorry about that! My typing skills are obviously not what they should be today!
