Can HIV/AIDS be contracted thru small amount of contact

Can HIV/AIDS be contracted thru small amount of contact?
If a man were to go inside a females vagina for a small amount of time and the women had a very small amount of vaginal fluid, could he still be infected with the HIV/AIDS virus if she is positive? Is there a higher risk for women to contract than men?

Any bodily fluids.
2 :
yes to both questions women have bigger surface area so possible in men any injury on genitals can cause it
3 :
Condom or not, there is a possibility the guy may be infected with the HIV virus, but the only way to find out for sure is to get tested. Also, HIV tests will not detect the virus if the "sexual encounter" just occured, so it may be a good idea to wait a month or so to get tested. In the meantime, check with your physican or your local AIDS foundation for HIV/STD tests. Take care.

Absolutely, and there is no difference whether you are male or female for contracting aids.
5 :
Yes, exposure to vaginal fluid is how HIV is transmitted. call 1-800-342 AIDS, thats the National HIV & STD hotline. They will tell you where to get tested for free.
6 :
AIDS can only be 'caught' if there has been a transfer of bodily fluids. thats vaginal juices, semen or blood mostly. aparently u would have to drink a gallon of someones saliva to catch aids via saliva, so there isnt much change of getting aids from kissing! both women and men are equally likely to catch aids.....it doesnt seem to prefer either sex.

There must be a break of sorts. If there was no bleeding invovled and only a small amount of vaginal fluid the answer is no. There must be a lot of vaginal fluid present or if she torn during intercourse adn he had a cut and blood got through it is possible. However, if is unlikely in the situation you are describing.
