A member asked:
Mutual masturbation with another man. we never touched each other and no fluids exchanged, just were in the room together. whats the risk of catching any sti, especially mpx from his room/bathroom- i heard you can catch it from surfaces and fabrics?

Per the CDC websites, mpox is primarily spread by close contact. There is a lower risk of catching it from contact with objects which have been in contact with a symptomatic person. So unless this gentleman had mpox in the last few weeks, you are totally fine.
