It�s possible in certain situations, but not likely. If a couple keeps their clothes on, the risk of pregnancy or disease is practically zero. Sperm, viruses and bacteria can�t swim through fabric.

With no clothes, dry sex gets way more risky. If a guy cums right outside the opening to the girl�s vagina, then those swift and strong sperm can swim in, find an egg and start a pregnancy. And some infections, such as herpes, can spread through skin-to-skin contact, even if there�s no body fluids swapped.

The other dry-sex danger is getting carried away and jumping into sexual intercourse, without being prepared. That�s why you need to set firm limits and stop if you feel like you might give in and go beyond those limits. That�s especially true if you�re having dry sex without any clothes. Both partners need to promise to stop before things go too far.
