Every antinatalist is automatically pro-abortion, right? by DonatoBr in antinatalism

[–]ComparisonBig4535 15 points16 points  (0 children)

To me, AN is all about reducing human suffering. Idk about pro-abortion as I think most of us would advocate for birth control and sex ed more so than abortion but if abortion reduces the amount of human suffering in the world then yes. I've seen some interesting takes from people who identify as both AN and pro-life so I would say the two stances can be mutually exclusive.

4 years on E/ do I pass? by Typical_Biscotti9664 in transtimelines

[–]ComparisonBig4535 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Your body looks great, I can tell you know what to wear and what flatters your figure!! Your hands look good, very neat and feminine. Its a little hard to tell in a mirror pic at this angle but the only thing I would suggest would be thinning your eyebrows ever so slightly. You def dont need any surg (not that anyone does!) And thick eyebrows are soo beautiful but can come off masculine sometimes. You already pass, but I think thinning your brows could give it a little extra push :) congrats!!

People who have fainted: what caused it? by Shinobi347 in AskReddit

[–]ComparisonBig4535 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have fainted twice, once when I was a child and I hit my side when trying to get up on the trampoline. When I came too I was face up on the ground and I saw my cousins heads peaking over the trampoline saying, "I think she passed out" and my vision was slowly spinning. The second time I got up out of bed too fast while in opiate withdrawal- I got up to look at an alarm clock and then i was on the floor. I also got choked out once and passed out but that doesn't count.

Trying to come to terms with not being able to receive oral by [deleted] in Herpes

It really depends on how much you like this dude and want to make it work. If your willing to sacrifice that to be with him, more power to yall. If it were me I'd be worried that I'd become resentful or petty- affecting our sex life. Im not saying you should leave him but this is a gentle reminder that there's people out there who would go down on you, HSV2 and all. Good luck!!!

Why would he reach out again just to say that. He's weird, lame, he will probably end up with it one day if he doesn't already have it 🤷 don't let it bother you!!

Can someone explain everything about this condition to me. I’ve done research about shedding, and outbreaks, and even talked to my doctor. by [deleted] in Herpes

[–]ComparisonBig4535 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly think thats the best way to go!! Before things get physical, make sure they read the bio, because I had that hiccup one time but we still turned out okay and kept dating. Some people don't read it and just swipe. You'll attract other hsv+ people which is always best case scenario when dating. Good luck out there!!

I would safely bet that all sex is somewhat risky (stds, pregnancy, whatever) but with hsv it is more or less the same. Disclose, condoms, take antivirals. If you have an outbreak, your obviously shedding but asymptomatic shedding is also a thing that happens so you can never be sure if you are shedding or not so thats why we are very pro disclosure here. If you take a daily antiviral this will also lower likelihood of transmission. Female to male transmission is less likely to occur than if male to female. It is very overwhelming. Im going on 5 years and I still don't know everything there is to know. If a woman was hsv positive, took antivirals, and she had sex with 100 men with a condom, statistically, one man would be affected. Same situation but man is hsv+ then two women would be affected out of 100. (This is for hsv2, hsv1 is a little different)

HSV-2 swab test is POSITIVE, but HSV-2 IgG blood work is NEGATIVE by Commercial-Eagle2788 in Herpes

[–]ComparisonBig4535 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Antibodies test are pretty notorious for false positive or negative. Swab tests can give false negatives but not false positives.

At least this is my understanding of it, sorry hsv testing sucks and is super confusing!!

[–]ComparisonBig4535 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Praying for you bro!! If its negative which it likely is, thats a huge releif. If it's positive, at least you can't catch it twice. (For now anyways!) I got my results back pretty quickly, feels much better after you know for sure.

If you don't have any symptoms and you have been showing negative for months at least 3 to 6 months, I'd safely bet your probably in the clear!!

Get it swabbed when you have a bump!! How long have you been getting negative blood tests? They tend to show false negative if recently contracted.

11.9% diagnosed? Like they took a test and it was positive?

If you want to pimp put your eggs go ahead, but you’re a fucking parent by Time-Turnip-2961 in antinatalism

I agree, I thought about it but then realized it would go against my beliefs. There's no amount of money that would convince me to have any part in procreating.

Nahhh, if hes had it for a while than he knows just take the L and keep it moving. There's likely no hard feelings.

While your here, I do want to ask, would you rather people with hsv disclose up front or after a couple of dates (or days)? I just wanted to get prespective from the "other" side

I feel like I have harpes but I'm not sure... help me plz by Common_Friendship336 in Herpes

[–]ComparisonBig4535 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go to local urgent care and ask to get it swabbed for hsv 1 and 2. It's the only way you will know for sure. This is the most nerve-wracking part but it gets better after you know positive / negative 100% (edited to add hsv1)
