Including the one anon has.
When you get right down to the root cause, you can't fix stupid and horny is a hard hill to overcome.
Reminds me of this cute little poem:
My genes done gone and tricked my brain
By making fucking feel so great
That's how the little creeps attain
Their plan to fuckin' replicate
But brain's got tricks itself, you see
To get the bang but not the bite
I got this here vasectomy
My genes can fuck themselves tonight.

Blindsight is awesome. I was so pumped he made his works freely available.
Have you read the rifters trilogy? It has a mildly odd voice, imho, but overall a great series.
I haven't. I'll check it out, thanks.
Simple really, cure the STD called life and stupid and horny are gone too.
Only bacterial STIs are curable. Viral ones are not. Some have vaccines and some have treatments, but no cures.
I think they meant like a vaccine to eradicate it? Fingers crossed this person got treated
"But I can't wear a condom! My penis is so huge it feels constricted! You don't understand!"
Mate, your dick is not too big for a condom. Stop being an idiot.
Even if it was, condoms come in sizes.
I need a fitting room
The only thing I remember from health class was the teacher putting her whole arm in a condom.
Which is shocking given how anti-sexhealth my parents were and the community I grew up in at large. No idea how that teacher had a job but damn, respect.
I kinda hate that kind of demonstration because arms have bones, dicks do not, so it's not really a valid one. They're basically blood balloons and condom size actually does matter to them working. There is such a thing as too small (or too large)
Seriously, it does way more harm than good giving the impression that condoms are a one-size-fits-all thing. An uneducated guy could buy a box, use the whole package getting soft every time because his dick is getting put in a mild sleeper hold, and come to the conclusion that he can't have sex with a condom.
Proper health education for boys and young men should include talking about "finding the condom that works for you." Women don't usually do one set of birth control and just go with it forever no matter how shitty it is, they try different things until they find one that works, sucks the least, or find an alternative. They don't just try a pill, have side effects, and give up on the idea of birth control because some ignorant teacher suggested that all birth control is the same because (makes some inane demonstration).
Sometimes hearing y'all talk about health Ed classes that actually taught y'all stuff is wild to me. I live in a red state. Sex education for me was basically a two-day seminar where they showed us pictures of the gnarliest venereal diseases they could find. Like that's it. We didn't see a condom at all. Learning about condoms for us was first hand. In a Motel 6 that took cash with my girl after we bought a few different brands to try them out.
Given my state and area I grew up I'm surprised. When I joined the military I got the bombardment of "here are STDs!" Scare tactics. And I can't recall they talked about condoms. Pretty crazy.
They make large condoms. I'm blessed enough that I have to use large and even with that it was constricting enough that I usually couldn't cum with one on. I still ALWAYS wore a condom until I got engaged to my wife. I understand that the benefits outweigh the risks.
For me, it wasn't the constriction, it was that lowered sensitivity. There are thin ones and there are magnums. I need the mags, which I haven't seen with a thin option (though I haven't bought condoms in years and maybe that'd be an option now). I'm glad to be beyond that mess.
I had some luck with Kimono MicroThin XLs.
Random story that is mostly not related here but I wanna tell it so I'm going to.
I almost can't get off when having sex. Like, it's a chore and it fucking sucks to try. Even without a condom it's just not happening.
I hook up with this lady, she says guys finish really fast with her and I'm like, well, that's not going to happen here.
With a condom on I turn into a 4 pump chump. This lady was not super hot or anything. But damn.
Outside of a few years after starting to have sex, I've never had thst experience before or since. I always wonder what made the difference.
Her kegels could probably crack walnuts. You're lucky you walked away with your dick still attached.
Would have been worth it!
Did measure your condom size?
I have to special order mine internationally and wait weeks because the ones locally simply don't work for me, but I still wear 'em
Yeah my penis is really big too, totally - I have to do this too. cough
It is both a blessing and a curse, I'll just say that
Same issue, my brother... Khm... Khm... same issue, totally...
Always bring condoms :/
Use two, just to be safe. One for you and one for your partner.
Bring ten, unless you're only fucking once
Amateur hour
lmao
Nahhhh, cling wrap does the job good enough
Only sailors use condoms baby.
Loser sentiment right there. Just make sure you don't put a kid in a shitty life with parents that never wanted it
Preventing pregnancy is the most replicable effect of condoms. I’d be much more worried about gonorrhea, HIV, even syphilis.
I usually think like: Hurt yourself all you want, but don't hurt others
The vast majority of people I know in the queer community around me get tested regularly and don't use condoms, since pregnancy isn't a risk.
That works! Enjoy! Good to hear you're keeping yourself and your partners safe!

Not in the 2020's, Austin.
But they should! Traveling from Port to Port...
Can confirm. Was a sailor.

Hello anon, welcome to the finding out phase.
Amazing how anons manage to fuck up every social situation even if they are nominally successful at something
maybe managing to achieve something will turn your name into a successful brand, a graduation from anon if you will
elon is that you?
