Rinsing with dettol does absolutely nothing to prevent the transmission of STDs.
Dettol is a
surface disinfectant. It's used to clean surfaces such as table tops, toilets, floors, hands etc.
STDs reside either
in the blood or
infect the cells of the mucous membranes or skin. Dettol does not penetrate the cells. Neither does it do a damned thing to deal with infections in the blood stream.
