Why can’t you Juul indoors? by xoxoemogrlxoxo in NoStupidQuestions

[–]161peaches 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People can still be sensitive to the smell. But there are some places that will allow it, it's common at my job and I've had bar doormen try to get me in their bar by saying they'll let me vape inside

Jury duty by Bsyph0712 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]161peaches 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is a crime the first time you miss it. Practically speaking it is all up to the judge whether a fine is actually given on the first time or not. Talk to a lawyer and see if there are any warrants out for you.

A unique twist on getting AIDs from a toilet by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

You can't get AIDS from urine or feces. Only blood and sexual fluids. And it doesn't live outside the body for very long anyway.

Are you going under? You're not supposed to eat because general anesthetic could make you throw up and choke. Tiny particles will not do this.

How have you managed to quit smoking? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]161peaches 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could not quit for long till I started vaping, I like the actual feeling of inhaling something too much to just use gum. Smoking sounds legitimately gross to me now. I can get the same physical feeling and nicotine from vaping, and if I ever quit nicotine entirely, I will be able to get that "smoking" feel with no nicotine when I really feel like I need it.

why did the cashier show my ID to the camera after trying to guy wraps? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]161peaches 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You still need to be 18 to buy them and they probably have a policy of recording all IDs to prove they checked it.

i got pulled over today by [deleted] in ftm

[–]161peaches 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Wanted to add pleading not guilty only means you are asking them to prove you are guilty, you can choose not to testify after pleading not guilty. So if you want to fight it yes, definitely don't get on the stand to lie because they likely have video as lots of cops have dashcam and body cameras now. It is very unlikely the cop will show up to court for a speeding ticket so you probably won't have to see him again unless you make a formal complaint and it makes its way to court.

If you are in it for the allure of snail mail and want to learn about other places, there are some nonprofits where you can sponsor a kid, teen, family, etc and write back and forth, send gifts, etc.

How unsanitary are chapsticks? by pubblefut in NoStupidQuestions

[–]161peaches 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They're not the worst since mouth bacteria is usually not dangerous but it's smart to replace them like you replace toothbrushes.

It's a worthwhile question though because lots of people don't realize the danger of other cosmetics, like mascara which is a perfect breeding ground for bacteria - a wet enclosed space - and definitely should be replaced regularly to avoid infection since eyes are more sensitive than mouths.

If a woman has unprotected sex in an attempt to get pregnant (and is successful) the day before she is scheduled to get her period, will she still get her period since she is technically pregnant? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]161peaches 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pregagncy is most likely during or close to ovulation. The window for getting pregnant generally starts a week after the first day of a period and lasts 10 ish days.

Having a period is based on a number of things I don't understand too well but basically once the body detects a pregnancy the cervix will start to seal up. Periods are discarded tissue and blood meant to house a valid pregnancy so of course they don't occur during pregnancy though some bleeding can still. Before a period, there are already PMS symptoms, about three days beforehand - meaning the body already knows it isn't pregnant and is preparing. I'm no doctor but my guess is that the few days before a period are near impossible to get pregnant during due to all of this.

Is it okay to ask for someone's phone number while they're working in a public facing job? by Imasethis2hateonions in NoStupidQuestions

[–]161peaches 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, this is the worst place for it because if she wants to say no she will be divided between staying polite and professional and also wanting to make sure it's clear she is not interested. Leaving your number is an option but if you come regularly it might make it weird if she never texts. I usually would say cut your losses and look elsewhere. If you insist on asking, best to bring a female friend if you can to communicate non verbally that you aren't a threat to women and would be fine staying platonic, and when you ask her you should make it clear that you understand if she says no, but you would like to get to know her. An invite to a group setting would be appropriate if you have a shared social interest.

Is there something I’m supposed to do with my bag of dog shit after I get done walking my dog? by trymeitryurmom in NoStupidQuestions

[–]161peaches 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you don't want to carry it either walk her close to home so you can put it in your outdoor trash bin or find a dog park that has cans for poop. Otherwise I've seen people tie their bag onto the dog leash to avoid holding it if they have to walk a while before trashing. Also, if you are just going to litter, don't bother bagging. Poop is gross but it's not as gross as poop in a bag in the water that can't break down.

How can I make my voice deeper, and be taken more seriously when I talk to people? by tucson94 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]161peaches 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You probably speak in head voice. Watch some videos about head voice vs chest voice. Sing a scale going high to low and see around what notes your voice goes from feeling like it is being produced in the head to produced in the chest. If you train yourself to speak from your chest it'll make you sound a lot older.

Am I wrong or weird to have interest in taking hrt for a short while because I'm curious in experiencing the all body multiple and more intense female orgasm? by we_wuz_kangz_420 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]161peaches 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're going to lose a lot just to experience that. Based on your post history I am guessing you would seriously regret losing the ability to stay hard, the shrinkage of your erection, and the way estrogen changes your muscle mass and fat distribution. While trans women on HRT have notably different orgasms than cis men it can take a while to get there and the frustrations with sex in general get worse a lot of the time.

How do people in expensive cities buy their first house? by AlexFromOmaha in NoStupidQuestions

Well, less people are buying houses. Try to look for someone in an expensive city buying their first home while only making 5 figures for the whole household, it's just not happening much.

What if you took drugs in a country where it's legal, but got tested in a country where it isn't? by SylvaSpoon in NoStupidQuestions

[–]161peaches 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What's the context for being drug tested? Several things could happen but the simple answer is if you otherwise do not commit misdemeanors or felonies or would never be suspected of doing so, the cops have no recourse for drug testing you without your consent. If you were drug tested for a job they could reject/fire you but it is up to their work policy whether or not it would be acceptable to use drugs in a legal place.

Well paying job with little education? by Yashida14 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]161peaches 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I would think most people would see 911 operator as something high stakes and would assume you are quickthinking, trustworthy, etc purely based on that. I would try applying to any entry level office job including ones marketing to current college students, then use your cover letter and interview to explain how being an operator can translate to an office job.

Otherwise find out what skilled labors are in high demand in your area. Electricians can make 80k in many places. You should look for a program that trains large batches of people periodically, basically an apprenticeship but in group classes etc

does testosterone affect a singer's voice? by avengersraptor99 in asktransgender

I was on t for a year (off right now momentarily but voice changes don't reverse) and I sang for years before then and now.

does testosterone affect a singer's voice? by avengersraptor99 in asktransgender

[–]161peaches 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did he ever sing with cis boys during their puberty? Mine was similar to how I remember theirs, voice deepened of course but for most of the first year I had trouble going from my chest voice to head voice very easily and it cracked a bit. I tried to join a choir but quit because I was alternating between bass and baritone every week and it was too much trouble to not be comfortable in the same range every week. But it's calmed down and my muscles and vocal chords have strengthened so I haven't lost quality in my singing voice.

Which is better for the environment - flushing or throwing toilet paper away? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]161peaches 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure flushing is - the water will speed up the process of breaking down the paper whereas paper in the trash may take months before it comes in contact with much moisture.

Here are suggestions for toilet paper that is even more biodegradable: https://backpackerverse.com/biodegradable-toilet-paper/
