What Are The Chances Of STD Transmission Through Non Penetrative Sex?

Posted on Mon, 16 May 2016

Question: Sometimes (once every several months) I visit a massage parlor to receive a happy ending or "hand job." I've been told there is no risk of STD as long as it does not go further, i.e. intercourse in the mouth, vagina, or anal (which I have no interest in). I'm aware that you are not recommending this as a means of stress relief, but I just want to confirm that there is no risk of STD from receiving a "hand job." Thank you.
