Question in the post "Can I Get Pregnant, or Get or Pass On an STI From That?"

Hello again Scarleteen, so i have this question:

In the post "Can I Get Pregnant, or Get or Pass On an STI From That?" (http://www.scarleteen.com/article/bodie ... _from_that), in the phrase "The risks listed for the activities below also account for any body fluids present if and when there are fluids present or there may be."

By any, you mean any body fluids? Semen is also account?

Thanks :D

Yes, semen counts as a bodily fluid.

To be clear, semen and vaginal fluid (and per STIs, secondarily, blood or breast milk) is what we're usually talking about in all of that, as those are the fluids associated with pregnancy or STIs.
