Hey, maybe he wants his future kids to experience the same kind of harassment so they can bond over it.

Why is condom couple so focused on penetrative vaginal sex? Sure, pleasuring the penis and testicles is important, but the rectum is by far the most sensitive and sensual part of the male reproductive system.

I've seen the whole "people in committed relationships who use condoms are insane and weird and not having good sex" take quite often. They're always really weird about it too and can never let it go and keep asking "well what's the point of being exclusive if you're still using condoms?!"

Like god drat there's so many valid reasons. I know married couples who "still" use them even with the wife on birth control because they want to be double sure and yeah, makes cleanup a breeze. What a weird thing to have a meltdown about.

Actually it's all good. I thought that when I was single and I've been married near a decade and still feel that way. It's an intimacy thing. Whatever, different strokes for different folks.

She mocks him repeatedly and openly. She throws his poo poo around when mad at him. She threw a chair during a fight, and it scared him enough he left and sat in his car for hours. He's probably less "insecure" and more "being emotionally abused".

No poo poo, she sounds mentally unstable and like one fight away from going over the edge to physical abuse.

Throwing furniture around during a petty argument....

Yeah I laughed at the lyrics she said but that behavior sounds like abuse to me - something tells me that isn't the first time she's sought to belittle him, nevermind the furniture throwing.

I had sex with a 17 year old girl, got her pregnant, set up a private child support agreement with her, 3 years later turns out kid isn’t even mine. What can I do at this point?

quote:

I won’t say my actual age for privacy reasons but I was in my 40’s when this happened. I got her pregnant, she never wanted me to see her or the baby again. Threatened to call the cops on me if I didn’t help her with child support though, and me being scared of getting thrown in prison for having sex with a minor, I set up a private child support agreement with her. I never even saw the kid during those three years.

She randomly calls a few weeks ago, and says that around that time she was sleeping with someone else and it turns out the kid is theirs. I suspect she knew all along that the kid wasn’t mine. Is there anything I can do about it at this point?

Edit: the girl was 15 turning 16 when we began hanging out. She was 17 when we had sex, which is the legal age of consent in our state. Would I get in trouble for hanging out with her when she was 15 if I took this to court?

Last name dude is an rear end in a top hat, to be sure, but he’s also probably been lulled into an ultimately false sense of security by the fact that adults usually have enough sense and tact to not laugh at each other’s names in person, and then his girlfriend makes it clear that she does think his name is dumb and he’s dumb for having it, which is a guaranteed way to hurt him. I sentence them to marriage in order to save others. They have to pick a new name that neither of them had and use that.

Just looked this up and it's being asked in Legal Advice. Unfortunately he actually got the best advice for his situation.

quote:

Stop paying her going forward and move on. A court is going to have a hard time believing that a 40 something year old was innocently hanging out with a 15 year old until they turned the exact age of consent and the started having sex with them if she claims you started earlier than 17. And really even if you didn't have sex it sounds a lot like you were grooming a child for sex.

Hoping he ignores this advice and takes her to court, then it ruins his life.

You realize that a straight person that has unprotected sex with a ton of random untested people is a lot more of a risk than a gay guy or gal that's in a committed relationship, right? The law is homophobic as poo poo and not based in current medical knowledge.

If they had it worded as "any person who has promiscuous sex in [time period] is banned from giving blood" it would make a ton more sense than "if you've had homosexual sex you're disqualified."

It's a spirit vs letter issue. OP in this story is a tremendous horse's rear end.

I'd go so far as to say it's not even lying. The question may say 'yo, did you MSM within the last year' but what it really means 'are you a tremendous slut?'

And to be frank it's pretty bullshit that the gay guys are the one that get beat over the head with it.

This is from a sub reddit called unpopular opinion where people post their opinions and then they are voted on if they are actually unpopular or not.

I'm a guy and I wish I could be pregnant
Voted 96% unpopular

quote:

I think pregnancy is wonderful. I know it's not all lollipops and rainbows. I supported my wife every single day through her pregnancy and I helped her through the nausea, the body aches, and the terrible pain of giving birth. I know there are risks and complications and it's not something everyone wants to do. I wish I could do it, though.

My wife and I agreed we wanted a baby as soon as we had a house. Thankfully, she was able to become pregnant (I really feel for the women who can't have babies and wish they could) and we now have a toddler who is an absolute joy.

She loved being pregnant. Every day we talked about the baby growing in her womb that we couldn't wait to meet. I kissed her belly hundreds of times. And I fell in love with her all over again every time I looked at her. Her hand was pretty much glued to her belly, always rubbing it and humming a song. The bond that is formed between the mother and child is simply beautiful.

The hardest part about it is that I'll never be able to realize this wish and I never had a choice in the matter. Women can choose (in most cases) whether or not they want to become pregnant. And I don't know how the logistics of it all would work, anyway. Maybe if we lived in a world where both men and women were built with the capability to have babies, kind of like seahorses. I know it's not realistic, but if it were possible to give me a uterus transplant I'd consider it. I would gladly take menstruation and menopause if it meant I could get pregnant.

Every guy I've ever told has either looked at me like I'm insane or just straight-up laughed at me. Women I've told seem to understand, but nobody really takes it seriously except for my wife. She knows it's not a joke and that it's an actual dream of mine. Any guys out there agree with me?

Edit: Some people are rightfully pointing out that my wife's pregnancy went smoothly and that we are very fortunate. I do not disagree. However, I disagree that I have an idealized view of pregnancy. Just because things went well for her does not mean they would for me and does not mean they go well for others, but it also does not invalidate my feelings. As I stated above, I am well-informed of the risks that come with pregnancy.

Edit 2: No, it's not a sexual thing. Also, to clarify, I am happy as a straight male and I do not want to transition to become a woman.
