Say I have active lesions in my genital area. If I give oral sex to my partner, or I french kiss her (ie. any sexual activity NOT involving her mouth or genitals touching my infection) will she be infected?

Warts are not lesions. If you have lesions then you have something other than HPV/genital warts.

I can not answer your question, but the person who replied to you prior...Lesions are another name for warts. It''s what doctors call them.

If you do not have any warts in your mouth... then you probably won''t infect her. However, some people have tiny warts under their tongues or in the backs of their throats that they are not aware of... and you have a SMALL chance of passing it on that way. But, generally, you're more likely to spread it by touching the affected area and then touching either her genitals or mouth.
