Transmission of HIV requires a substantial transfer of HIV infected bodily fluids. HIV does not survive long in a dry environment. Unless you wear the underwear as they are substantially wet with infected fluids AND you have open wounds that the fluids come in contact with, the likelihood of contracting HIV by wearing another's clothing is extremely remote.
