Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Contact with menstrual blood can potentially expose a person to blood-borne STIs and is considered an unsafe sexual practice. Masturbation and massaging are not sexual practices with a partner and do not involve the risk of STIs. Intercourse between uninfected partners without the use of condoms is a safe sexual practice, but this answer includes the word "uninfected" which implies that there is some risk present.
