Can you get HIV or STD if you get on top of a woman?
Answer: The only way to get HIV or an STD is if you exchange bodily fluids with another person. If both of you are undressed and on top of one another, there is a chance, although slight, of exchanging bodily fluids. The fluids through which HIV can be spread are: vaginal fluids, blood, menstrual blood, breast milk, and semen.
