rimming risk?
| Sun, 06-10-2007 - 2:53pm |
Wife and I have been together and monogamous for 10 years, and are free of communicable diseases of any sort (recently confirmed by labs). She does take immunosuppressants for a condition she has. Realistically what risks are either of us exposed to if I perform unprotected rim on her immediately after thorough shower (and is it any different if I keep on the surface rather than penetrating)? In other words, I know the standard oral/anal risks typically stated, but wonder if anyone scientifically "in the know" can help me decide whether lack of protection is significantly unsafe in our situation. Thanks.

I remembered seeing someone ask this on a message board at www.talksexwithsue.com and here is Randy's (the webmaster) reply:

Rimming is not entirely safe. You can pick up e.coli, a bacteria we all know, from rimming. Plus, if your partner has hepatitis, this is a primary transmission route. As long as you are mindful of that, lick away. It is safer to lick through a condom.

btw, i don't think he meant put the condom over your tongue, i think he meant cut it up one side so you can spread it over the anus, and then lick. ahhh, the informative things i've learned on that website/tv show!!!
