Can a short handjob make you pregnant?
Question:
Hello!
My boyfriend and I were laying on the couch talking and just relaxing. I gave him a hand job for about 4 minutes; he did not ejaculate or pre-cum. I had my pants on also. Are there any odds of my getting pregnant? This was also four days after my period ended. I plan to never do this again and immediately after I was ashamed of myself and told him I didn't feel right with God about it. I've prayed to God since to not make me pregnant and to give me another chance to have better prudence.
Answer:
"Can a man take fire to his bosom, and his clothes not be burned? Can one walk on hot coals, and his feet not be seared? So is he who goes in to his neighbor's wife; whoever touches her shall not be innocent" (Proverbs 6:27-29). The word "touch" refers to sexual touching. "Now concerning the things of which you wrote to me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. Nevertheless, because of sexual immorality, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband" (I Corinthians 7:1-2). Sexual touching, like sexual intercourse, belongs in marriage. Instead, the two of you are inflaming your passion for sex and somehow fooling yourselves into thinking that nothing "bad" will happen. "For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you should abstain from sexual immorality; that each of you should know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor, not in passion of lust, like the Gentiles who do not know God" (I Thessalonians 4:3-5). Instead of keeping your body (your vessel) set apart for holiness and honor, the two of you are using your bodies for passions of lust. That is not right!
Pregnancy doesn't occur just from touching. The fluids from a man, pre-ejaculate and semen, would have to get near your vagina. No fluids mean no possibility. However, since there was skin-to-skin contact, there is a very small, very remote possibility of a disease being transferred, assuming one of you had a disease.
