Yes, when we describe risk, we are taking the presence of fluids like ejaculate into account.

Hello again
I have decided that me and my girlfriend will be dry jumping as it does not pose any risk
But may some one please explain the biology behind this ( why there is no risk even with ehaculation)

Hi Jambo. There are a lot of different things that need to happen for pregnancy to be possible, which you can read about here: Human Reproduction: A Seafarer's Guide

If something gets in the way of those things happening - like one or both people are wearing clothes (dry humping) - then pregnancy is not possible. Does that make sense?

Okay I've read that article
And it does sort of kind off make sense
So basically it's like clothes trap sperm
But what if there is only one layer and underwear are soaked with semen then what are the chances

You're correct. As for your other question, that's addressed in some of the articles we've given you previously, and reiterating it here is only going to feed the anxiety loop. So I'm going to go ahead and lock this thread. If you have questions about other topics, you're welcome to create a new thread to discuss those.
