What is the safest way to clean up cum after sex?
January 20, 2008
Is there something to do to cut down on the health risks of the leftover cum if you don't swallow?
The answer is yes, there are several things you can do if your goal is to minimize your health risks.
First, have a hand towel nearby with which you can clean up the cum. Throw it in a special pile of wash. When you wash the pile, use bleach to kill any germs that may be there. Obviously white towels are ideal in this respect, as the bleach won't leave funny faded areas on their color. Be sure to wash your hands with antibacterial soap after starting that load of laundry. Some viruses can survive in your dirty laundry for days.
Paper towels and Kleenex are an option too, and can be handy because they are disposable. I generally dislike them though, because they fall apart easily. Still, they do save you a load of laundry and are convenient.
Second, once you're done with sex take a shower. Use an antibacterial soap to wash yourself all over. Certain viruses can get on your skin (such as your fingers), and can spread to other parts of the body through touch. We all scratch and touch ourselves all over during sex. The more thoroughly you wash yourself, the better off you'll be.
Third, if you have cum into a condom during fucking, put your hand at the base of the condom when you pull out. Otherwise the condom may stay inside your partner. I had one experience in which someone fucked me, and hours later I discovered the condom was still inside me! I couldn't feel it after being fucked, so had no idea it was there until I happened to find it while showering. Fortunately, he didn't have any STDs. If he had any, I could easily have been exposed to them.
So spare your partners any risk thereof. Hold the base of the condom as you pull out, and dispose of the condom in the nearest trash can. (Don't flush it - sometimes they'll stop up toilets). If at all possible, wash your hands off with an antibacterial soap before you return to sex.
Fourth, be aware of where on your body you have any cuts, scratches, or sores. Those are parts of your body you should avoid getting cum near. Sometimes it's fun to play with your partners' cum and rub it all over your body. But you'd hate to accidentally contract something. Being self-aware is a great way to avoid this happening.
Fifth, always remember that cumming on your skin may be safe for HIV, but it isn't safe for other STDs. Genital warts, molluscum contagiosum, herpes, and even syphilis can be passed that way. If you want to play safe, set down a towel on the bed and encourage your partner to shoot on that. Or have him shoot on himself and clean it up. No need to make a scene about it ("Don't cum on me, it's not safe!"). Discreetly maneuvering during sex should be able to solve the problem without even having to talk about it.
