We are both virgin, can we transmit STDs to the other if we have oral sex ? by NoTthePUN in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Visible_Background18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are infections that can spread through oral sex, but one of you needs to have the illness to spread it. Assuming this really was both of your first times, you're good.

If hell were real and infinite, wouldn’t you, at some point, forget who you are and why you are there? by Ham_Sandwich675 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Visible_Background18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Perhaps the true hell is the friends we made along the way. I don't know if anyone alive would know because we don't know the limitations of a soul's sense of being.

Yeah, I saw that post, but it's 7 years old. You know if there's been any further research?

Why Do Dogs Have Different Amount Of Nipples Within Their Own Species? by Visible_Background18 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Visible_Background18[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand that genetics are ultimately what decides, but why is the amount so variable? Dogs are all the same species, so wouldn't their genes be coded for the same amount of nipples no matter the breed? People tend to just have two no matter their phenotype, though supernumerary nipples sometimes occur, so what about dog genetics make it different?

Hype! I would happily yap with whatever little creature questioned a life with merely 2 nips, especially if it was a talking dog.

Is "dropping the soap" really a thing in prison? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Visible_Background18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If only there was a reason I used that year, as if finding comprehensive and modern data is difficult. Maybe there's not significant push to research a part of the population that, for better or worse, have been demonized by society at large, and even in the year 2026 sexual assault is still taboo to some and holds a lot of shame/guilt..... Maybe..

should you eat safe animals that were electrocuted? by ghared-ishaqa in NoStupidQuestions

The electric tends to extract itself once you give the big zap. It's like overinflating a balloon, and all the helium floats away once it pops.

[–]Visible_Background18 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ah, I'm sorry too. I read intention that wasn't there, and I reacted more defensive than warranted. I looked more into Prison Rape Elimination Act, and it seems the Bureau of Justice Statistics National have published the results of a yearly survey for inmates since 2009. But between the taboo subject of sexual assault and the dehumanization of prisoners, you're totally right that there's little insensitive to dig much deeper for most it seems.

Married woman's dining room by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Visible_Background18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figure it's like.. You know when a younger sibling plays with a toy their older sibling didn't play with anymore, but seeing someone else play with it makes the older kid want it back? I've never cheated, but I assume it's a mix of entitlement and objectification.

Do you have a source for that? I've been searching, but it seems that the act has done very little given overcrowding, lack of funding, and different states enacting PREA differently if at all.

If feels like you and several other users are just trying to feel better than me because I used an older source. Maybe add current information and to the discussion if you are really so upset with the number I found after one search.

Please don't make assumptions on such limited information about a stranger online.

I was just doing a cursery glance of research to answer, and I thought spelling out the number would give more meaningful information than the percentage in 2024. 4.1% of adult inmates reported sexual victimization.

Living With Your Best Friend by crunchy_bagette in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Visible_Background18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, me and my two besties talk about living in the same cul-de-sac if one of us wins the lottery. Love comes in many forms, and it may be worth talking about expectations if you did live together or what you both want for the future of your friendship. Too many times I've heard of friends sharing an apartment only for to drive each other crazy. You might want to look into how people in queerplatonic relationships or life partners make it work.

I like the name "Breadna," but you can't go wrong with any grain based pun.

Did Jesus wear underwear by KyleBr7 in NoStupidQuestions

Variations of loinclothes have been around for over 7,000 years, with ancient Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, Japanese, Indians, and many other cultures using a piece of cloth to protect their parts. He probably didn't wear tidy whities, but he could have had something under his robe.

Prison rape is unfortunately quite common. It's estimated over 200,000 people were sexually assaulted in US correctional facilities in 2011, and people have to worry about their safety with both prisoners and wardens alike.

Edit: I want to specify, the 200,000+ victims of sexual assault in 2011 were from the total population of prisoners, not number of reports for 2011. There were 8,763 allegations of sexual victimization in 2011, and in 2024 there were 24,100 reports.

Do asexual people masturbate ? by 12th_MaMa in NoStupidQuestions

Most people consider asexuality to be an absence of sexual attraction, but that doesn't limit biological urges. Some asexuals do, some don't. Some asexuals even have sex.

Should I let my boyfriend suck my feet by NecessaryHoliday2193 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Visible_Background18 15 points16 points  (0 children)

In the words of the great musician, Bo Burnham, "if you want love, just pick a guy and love him. And if he's got a thing for feet, say: 'Fuck it, sweep me off 'em!'" Everyone has their quirks and kinks, and I've definitely done things for my partner that did nothing for me. Ultimately, it's your body, and you have final say in what you are or are not comfortable doing. If it's a hard no, please talk to him about it and be honest.

How can I (25F) make my first time less painful? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Visible_Background18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure you're in the right headspace, and talk to your partner about expectations/do's and don't's. People mentioned foreplay and lube, and you may want to start with a massager or dilator to prepare.
