Yes. While the odds are slim, *absolutely* you could be pregnant if your vagina comes in contact with semen. That's the biological purpose of sperm. It wants in, it wants an egg. I have heard of a case where sperm crawled up from a thigh ( Ann Landers maybe 30 years ago ) and yeah, bingo. A 40 year old woman asking this question would be wishful thinking, but 18 year old's are especially fertile. You need to be more wary and to tell him to be more careful. People's brains actually get less blood flow when aroused, so being a bit stupid and careless about things like wet hands is a hazard of sex that you have to be really aware of. You have to have a hard conversation while you are in a neutral moment asking him to be careful and to protect you. Guys often like to protect women, so don't phrase it like "Don't be a jerk with your dirty semen." be like "I want to be with you for a long time. Being a mother at my age would mess with my head. Please don't let that happen to me!" Other women might dispute my wording or emphasis ( I am sure they will - everybody's got a different take on feminism ) but I would hope that adult women are not seriously advising an 18 year old that she should not be concerned about the danger of being fingered with hands covered in come! I wish you the best.
