DNA fingerprinting or DNA profiling, any of several similar techniques for analyzing and comparing DNA from separate sources, used especially in law enforcement to identify suspects from hair, blood, semen, or other biological materials found at the scene of a violent crime. It depends on the fact that no two people, save identical twins, have exactly the same DNA sequence, and that although only limited segments of a person's DNA are scrutinized in the procedure, those segments will be statistically unique.

Transfer DNA to other parts of the body, clothing, etc. is always available. Besides, since rape isn't about sex, but power, few,if any, rapists would bother to put on a condom. Did you?

The fact that you are wondering about this is the troubling part. But anything can leave dna, hair, skin, etc.. The fact that you don't know this probably means that you shouldn't try it and get some help.

Yes. DNA is found in much more than semen. Hair, skin cells, saliva etc... Besides, a condom may not catch it all. Splashes do occur.

There are many ways a person can leave dna other than seminal fluid. All they need is one skin cell or a little bit of spit or sweat.

They could check for DNA if they found one of your hairs, or saliva or blood, drippage, whatever....better not to even think about it.
Overall though using a condom would make it more difficult to be caught.

Yes, they can check. There is DNA many places. If you are thinking about it...it ruins peoples lives.
When you get caught you will be raped in prison.
