Oral sex: Oral sex can still lead to passage of sexually transmitted diseases, hence it is advisable to also practice "safe oral sex" as well. Know your partner.

STD risk: While there is not a pregnancy risk with oral sex, the spectrum of sexually transmitted infections is up for grabs. Condoms or dams can provide barrier protection from these while enjoying the experience.
