Birth Control/get pregnant without penetration

Question
Hi, My boyfriend wears a condom during sex, but after he takes it off he likes to cuddle, and sometimes his penis touches my vulva - or at least close enough for me to worry.  I'm concerned that the sperm that are still on his body could migrate into my vagina and get me pregnant.  He thinks that's unlikely.  Which of us is right?  Thanks for you help.  

Answer
Hi Alex,
I'm not a medical doctor so I recommend that you ask your physician about this question. In my opinion, there is a chance of pregnancy in this situation. There is not a 100% chance of being safe even with a condom. If you're worried about being pregnant, you could get a free pregnancy test at this site http://www.optionline.org
