Male (or "external") condoms can be used to cover the penis for safer sex during vaginal or anal insertion or fellatio. Dental dams can be used to cover the vulva or anus when engaging in cunnilingus or anilingus, respectively, for safer sex. Internal condoms, also known as female condoms, can be used by receptive partners for safer sex.
Safe sex is sexual activity using protective methods or contraceptive devices (such as condoms) to reduce the risk of transmitting or acquiring sexually transmitted infections (STIs), especially HIV. The terms safer sex and protected sex are sometimes preferred, to indicate that even highly effective prevention practices do not eliminate all possible risks. It is also sometimes used colloquially to describe methods aimed at preventing pregnancy that may or may not also lower STI risks.
