As unbelievable as it sounds, I met a dude who believed you could get pregnant with anal. His reasoning "that's why in porno they always come in the face/skin".

We were about 15, but still.

A women can actually get pregnant that way, since semen could very well end up in the vagina due to proximity.

And if you're being that sloppy she could also get bacterial vaginosis. Although at least the bacteria aren't quite as self-propelling as sperm

Thought this was BS and the semen couldn't go from the Vulva into the fallopian tubes, but there does appear to be a risk: https://www.healthline.com/health/can-you-get-pregnant-from-anal
