Hi there, I've been doing a bit of research and have been reading
through several web sites, however, I have not been able to locate a
reliable source for the information I am looking for.
What I am interested in finding out is what the chances/odds are of
transmitting aids from the following methods:
Giving oral sex to a woman
Giving oral sex to a man
Receiving oral sex as a woman
Receiving oral sex as a man
Unprotected vaginal intercourse with an infected man
Receiving unprotected anal intercourse from an infected man
Unprotected vaginal intercourse with an infected woman
Giving unprotected anal intercourse to an infected man or woman

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Also if you have any information
about this, a reliable source/web site stating these odds would also be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I'm sure it is buried somewhere on my hard drive, but several years
ago someone posted a link to such a study.  I think it was from
France and gave specific chances of infection for each performance
of the various sexual acts you described.  All I remember is that
male anal receptive was the riskiest of all, and while religionists
will claim that proves the immorality of homosexuality, it should
be noted that the risk for lesbians was lower than the various
heterosexual categories.

The misguided presumption that people do one thing and
          then stop needs to be noted. Therefore supposed risk
          for any one thing isn't significant because at any
          moment during it something can change and it happens
          all the time. Before and during any sexual activity
          people do not know what could happen. The spontaneous,
          the unexpected is the thing.
