This is a question I come accross a lot, and I would like to post it here for peoples refferences.
question:
Can I get herpes from sharing a sex toy?
my answer:
If you are using them between you and an intimate partner, I would like to guess that you two have been tested for STD's prior or during your relationship or you two are practicing safe sex. You never want to share a toy with someone unless you are either sterilizing/washing it in between uses/people or you are using condoms and disposing of them properly and slipping a new one on before exchanging the toy and exposing it to anothers bodily fluids. If you are sharing sex toys and not practicing safe sex and one of you has herpes, then the other is most likely going to contract it.
