Yeah the perennial nerve thing is what I was thinking of and since you can pinch a nerve without cutting off blood flow I figure it's not as dangerous as said blood flow cutting off. But yeah I'll probably be real careful about it.

I figure it was a nerve thing, so cutting off blood flow probably wouldn't get me what I want anyway.

As it is, I'm just glad talking about it hasn't blown up in my face.

The issue is it's hard to cut off the nerves without getting other things as well.

Just forget it. I'm sorry that I asked. Its not your alls fault you encountered yet another degenerate human being.

I'm just gonna not do anything. I apologize for making GBS threads up the thread.

I guess I should have realized that if it sounds weird, it is weird, and should have left things well alone. Now, I have an eternal monument to my own idiocy.

yet further editing: and I suppose it includes this post.

Well, I guess if nothing else, this humiliation convinced me it was a dumb idea. Thanks thread, I just wish I had believed myself when I first told myself that, rather than needing confirmation from you guys.

I'll stop posting in the thread now. Hopefully we can all just look back on this as a dumb memory, and archiving will at least partially obscure my shame.

Dude if you like tickling your balls that's fine, just don't end up breaking them in the process. There's lots of ways to tickle your balls without relying on nerve pressure.

The thread as a whole is pro-degeneracy as long as it's not hurting anyone, including you.

I promise you from experience it is better to not break your dick for fun.

This thread is the best kind of weird.

Edit: For those on antidepressants, was your libido lowered or just your ability to actually orgasm? 'cause my libido is ok but I haven't exactly been polishing the pearl on a daily basis either before or after I started this medication and I'm not sure if my inability to climax the other night was due to the antidepressant or just leftover stress from a long hard week at work.

I suppose I should commence experimentation.

My ability to orgasm was reduced - I'd still get horny, but it would take significantly longer for me to orgasm. I also had significantly reduced sensation.

My sexual side effects were most significant in the first few weeks. Now that I've been on antidepressants for a few months, I'm almost back to normal.

FWIW I'm a girl on 10mg Celexa, which is a very low dose. My psychiatrist says that my experience with sexual side effects was typical for a patient on SSRIs.

Thanks! I also have lady parts and am on 20mg/day so I anticipated some side effects. This is going on month 3 at my current dose, so I'm pretty well settled in. I've been getting horny like I used to before the depression, so that's good at least.

Antidepressants can do that; I had a lot of trouble getting to orgasm on admittedly a pretty high dose of Paxil. It's extra frustrating because my libido was pretty much the same, but when I got to 80-90% I would suddenly drop back to 0%. Weed helped with it, but I eventually switched to Wellbutrin and that had no negative sex side effects.

FWIW I have a penis.

Let me ramp up the weird.

Let's say there is semen on a finger. You jerked off, you wash it away with soap and hot water. Four hours later you have sex. That finger is still a pregnancy risk, isn't it.

If you did a good job washing, you're good. http://campushealthmedia.arizona.edu/health_topics/sexual_health/sextalk/2007/sextalk.10.01.07.pdf . If this is a psychological thing, you could probably dip it into a dilute bleach solution, then wash that off, for total peace of mind.

In general it wouldn't be a bad idea to read Scarleteen or Go Ask Alice. Education never hurts, but especially if you guys are both on the inexperienced side and both on the anxious side.

No. Outside their ideal environment (past the cervix, where the temperature, moisture levels, and pH are ideal), sperm can live a few hours at most, and that's assuming you leave them alone. Sperm that had survived being exposed to soap, hot water, and vigorous scrubbing as well as the open air would be sperm so focused and committed to impregnation that frankly I'd be just as worried worried about them squirming their way up your urethra of their own volition, sneaking out your fly, and leaping through the air to your girlfriend's vagina. There's no need to wash your hands with bleach. Use soap and hot water, lather for 20 seconds, rinse well, and make sure you scrub your fingernails and behind your thumb.

If you could easily impregnate someone by touching them with washed hands that had touched semen earlier in the day, there would be literally no unpregnant teenagers.

Agreeing, sperm are poo poo outside of the genitals, and washing your hands well is more than enough to handle it. If you want to be extra-special sure use hand sanitizer after you wash I guess.

Even inside the vagina they only live a couple hours because the pH is wrong. That's why they swim like mad up past the cervix to a sperm-friendly environment. (That, incidentally, is why you can remove your diaphragm after six hours per the recommendations without getting pregnant: the sperm are already goners. This is assuming you have travelled back in time to 1974, which is why you're using a diaphragm as your contraceptive of choice.)

Don't be embarrassed! You'd be astonished at how many people have huge knowledge gaps because a) high-quality sexual health education isn't really prioritized in North America and b) living in a sex-negative culture means people with questions often have nowhere to ask them. But now you're doing the smart thing and asking questions to fill in the gaps!

What, I wonder, does this hidden face of madness reveal of the makers? These K'Chain Che'Malle?
On the numbnut wanks, since my vasectomy sitting in certain positions in my pc chair makes one ball go numb. More irritating than sexy though.

On the ssris I'm on 20mg of cilatopram and orgasms are harder to reach, but now they are all awesome multi edging style orgasms than weak quick wank poo poo. My libido is massively down as in no more spontaneous boners, which even at 32 were a regular issue before, but I still mentally want sex and can get it up quick enough so I'm not that bothered about it.

With finger babies, don't risk it. That's how religions are made. But seriously? A proper wash will sort you out like everyone else said.

Just curious - did you have a health teacher tell you someone he/she knew in school got pregnant this way? Because it sounds a lot like the bullshit scare tactics they used when I was in middle school.

No, but the sex ed talks I attented during school always emphasized the "72-HOUR LIFE SPAN NO MATTER WHAT" aspect of spermatozoids.

I don't know where they got that number; in ideal conditions, spermatozoa (since I assume we're talking about human sperm, not plant gametes) live up to five days, not three. And, as previously mentioned, in inhospitable conditions they've got a couple hours at most.

So basically maybe just forget everything your lovely sex ed classes taught you and start from scratch.
