Can I get pregnant with my clothes on?
No. Dry humping cannot lead to pregnancy. Since sperm cannot swim through clothing, getting pregnant while clothed (that is, wearing clothing that prevents penetration) would be very unlikely. Sperm exposed to air lose their ability to swim and can only live a few hours or less. Wearing or touching clothes with dry semen cannot lead to pregnancy.
