Transfer of strains of the HPV appear to need the presence of virus shedding from the infected party & the grinding nature of intercourse to attach that virus to the uninfected parties tissues. The described exposure seems minimal, but some risk remains. Males rarely know when they acquire these strains or have health problems from them, but they do spread them if they are infected
