Matthew said:There is speculation on all sorts of things, but HIV is not transmitted by kissing. If it were, the patterns of infection would be drastically different than they are. In other words, thousands (millions?) of people who are not infected would have been.
The "experts" that I have heard say that it would be next to impossible. But that the HIV virus is in the saliva. However, there has to be blood to blood contact in some way. That would require a very open sore in the mouths of both kissers and probably a lot of kissing to boot for this too happen. The kissing would have to be intense enough for the sore of the HIV positive person to bleed and then enter the sore place of the person not infected.
It is a lot like a man who has already cum fingering a vagina. Yes a girl can get pregnant that way but it is extremely rare.
Getting HIV from kissing would also be extremely exremely rare, but hypotheticaly at least possible.
And no, Matthew that would not include millions and millions of kissers of HIV positive and HIV negative people.
The key as I understand it is blood from one person infected has to get into the blood stream of the uninfected person in some way form or fashoin. At least that is what we school teachrs were told when I taught school.
