AIDS - no
HIV - yes

AIDS is NEVER transmitted, only HIV is, which then later develops into AIDS. HIV is transmitted by sex (vaginal, oral and anal).

They are both right, but to be more technical, HIV is the initial contraction, it eventually turns into AIDS. Although, the two acronyms are interchanged because they ultimately kill you.

When it is HIV, it is dormant. When it is AIDS, it becomes an active deterioration of the body, through the break down of the immune system.

Technically the only way HIV/AIDS could be transmitted orally is if :1.) the one using their mouth had a cut and it came in contact with infected genital fluids. 2.) the one using their mouth was infected and had a cut and came in contact with genital fluids.

Exceptions.1.) the one using their mouth did not have a cut with an infected partner 2.) the one using their mouth did not have a cut, but was neverthess infected. HIV/AIDS is not spread through saliva. It is only spread through genital fluids and blood.

Note: Herpes is spread through saliva, blood, and genital fluids, even when dormant. Know your partner.

Note:HPV can be contracted by simple skin contact to the wart; of course, fluids help. Don't sit on toilet seats, wipe them dryif needed and put down toilet paper. There is a vaccine now for HPV. Men-at any age. Women- up to age 26. P.S. If you already have HPV, you can not be vaccinated.

Yes, Low risk but not 0.
don't brush teeth before and after 2 hours of oral.
don't do oral if you have sore or cut or wound in your mouth and throat.
do not swallow anything.
still low risk even if you avoid those above. The best thing, use condom.

Any bodily fluid that could get into a cut or membrane of yours can be transmitted that way. So yes!!
