Could Masturbating By Rubbing Penis Against Bathroom Floor Or Wall Cause HIV?

I have masturbated on the floor of many bathrooms by rubbing my penis against the floor or the wall, like my own bathroom and my relatives bathrooms. Is there a possibility of contracting any STD. I think all my relatives in whose bathrooms I masturbated by rubbing my penis on the floor are HIV negative.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Masturbating by rubbing against bath room floor would not cause HIV/STD as the organisms causing both HIV/STD are highly friable and can not viable outside the body. But you are liable for other infection and skin diseases due to other contamination.

No this type of maneuver never causes HIV. because for the survival of HIV CD4 cells are required. So there is no chance of HIV. but regarding other STD. there are few chances that you acquired infection. because some organisms like chlamydia may leave in the free nature and can cause infections. thanx health care magic.
