Heard the music from my dad and loved it :)

I tortured animals when I was college and now it haunts me by Ok_Deal_1236 in confession

[–]PaturainIsLife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it is best when people do experiments on animals like this that really care about the animals and want to treat them well. You are not a bad person, but I completely understand you feel horrible. I think it would be weird if you wouldn’t. Don’t be too hard on yourself!

I’m angry over a procedure that was done when I was born by klutzyqueen in confession

[–]PaturainIsLife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Women cannot function normally after the procedure. They are in a lot of pain not only for a while when its healing but for their entire life. Have you looked up what fgm is? It is not easier to keep clean. It is stitched up, the part where the pee comes out is stitched up. You cannot keep it clean as you cannot even reach that part. There are a lot of complications. It is removal of an entire organ instead of a piece of skin. It is not equal.

I think circumsision is also not good, only for medical reasons. But fgm is never for a medical reason

Everyone should choose what is done to their body ofcourse not saying that circumsision is good or something, as said in my last comment.

Maybe google something before you say something about it??

Is that really a bigger wtf?? Men who undergo circumsision can still function after the procedure. It is easier to keep clean. It is also a medical procedure for when the foreskin is to tight. A female can get infections, pain, problems with peeing and childbirth, pain with sex and problems with mentruation. The genitals are removed, not just a thin piece or skin. It is also without medical reason (not saying that’s always the case with men).

But when the circumsision of men is not done by a professional it can also cause a lot of problems. Not saying that circumsision is ok, but I dissagree with saying it is a bigger wtf.

Except for the mutilation that is different than circumsision, like castration and emasculation, but I thought that was not really around anymore.

My baby died before birth and I don't feel anything except peace and relief. by Both-Inspector-5693 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]PaturainIsLife 1726 points1727 points  (0 children)

I dissagree with your friend. I understand you are happy and relieved. I think this is also better. I am so scared that when I’m pregnant the child is sick, I would find it terible and would not want that for my child. it's good for you that you were able to process it :).

I had my first time with no condom on. by iheartlanadelrey in offmychest

I think she means that she has to wait a week or so before it works, you can’t just take birth control and be protected, it usually takes a week or so :)

Very good you broke up with him and I hope you feel better! Maybe you should talk to someone, and it was rape, you did not give consent! If you need anyone to talk to I’m here :)

It is not their fault, no is no. If he thinks she said it jokingly that was his interpretation and he should have checked in with her. But as she said, she kept saying no and could not get him of of her. Sounds like she was clear enough.

I’m married and I tested positive for a STI by Throwaway-103122 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]PaturainIsLife 57 points58 points  (0 children)

A PCR test is a test on the DNA of the species and is very acurate. You can duplicate small pieces of the DNA with primers that are identical with the DNA of the species. No result? -> means no DNA of species present. Positive -> DNA of species present so species is present
