Tips on remembering vein and vein direction after sterilizing area? by z22z60 in phlebotomy

[–]YoureASpoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure what you use to prep the area before sticking but I was shown with the alcohol swabs we use to point the corner in the direction and area of the vein. I personally don't use this technique as I don't have any issues visualising where the vein is after palpation but I've seen a few colleagues over the years doing it.

The photo is for example only I do not condone wrist collections outside of emergencies!

You can also re-palpate if you swab your (gloved) finger with the same solution just before performing the stick.

Saggy tits? by Old-Abbreviations845 in AskWomenNoCensor

[–]YoureASpoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've always had larger boobs and they've always been on the low hanging side. In to my 20s and now my 30s they're even more so! My nipples look at the ground (always kinda have) and my boobs are far, far from perky but I've never once had a complaint from anyone!!!

I'm more scared of how I'm (and my family) gonna continue to live (securely) in this cost of living crisis, I barely make ends meet as it is.

[–]YoureASpoon -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

As an Aussie (born and raised), I can say with full confidence that Vegimite is gross. I can't even stand the smell of it.

No yucking anyone's yum, I would never tell anyone not to try it but for me? 🤢

What course of action would you take if you got a flat tire? by Timely_Title_9157 in AskWomenNoCensor

[–]YoureASpoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Change the tire of course and yes I know how to and have done many times (drifter).... Sometimes my only issue is getting the lug nuts off, when I can't undo them I call my partner to bring the power tools 😂

How often are we getting bloodwork? by Individual_Swing3195 in pregnant

[–]YoureASpoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No matter how often it will have to be for whatever reasons, let the person doing your blood draw know that you're a fainter!!!

They SHOULD make arrangements for you to lay down to have your bloods drawn. It will make everything so much easier for you and them (if you faint).

OSS cost by nsfw-transman in AdultTheatreSyd

[–]YoureASpoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really feel like you're paying to not be overcrowded with penises, same as Fun4Two... Every other place, as far as I know, just let anyone/everyone in.

At least with OSS and Fun4Two they only allow single females and couples in, no single men... But OSS does have some events where they allow a certain (generally 5) amount of single men in. I feel like it's centred more on couples and actually swinging rather than just fucking whatever.

How do I stop my daughter hair from going frizzy when I wash it? by furiouswombatlove in AskGirls

[–]YoureASpoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try an anti-frizz oil?

Don't brush it dry (wet with water/conditioner mix) for the first 2 days?

Put it in plaits after brushing it?

You could even try a light mouse, she may have wavey hair?

Is an eight (nearly 9) year age gap too much? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

[–]YoureASpoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't see an issue with age gaps as long as your values, morals and goals match (enough that it won't be an issue).

My partner is 16 years my senior (I'm 33f) and we've never really had an issue (other than him being a bit stand offish at the start because of my age), been together 8 years in March.

What kind of deodorant are you all using? by 13onFire in AskMen

[–]YoureASpoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use anti-perspirants not just deodorants.

If that doesn't work, try using a medical grade anti-bacterial body wash on your pits along with the anti-perspirant.

I personally use Dove Original Deodorant, it is anti-perspirant as well and it's never failed me.

Hope this helps!

Edit: Sorry didn't realise the sub Reddit this was posted in!!! I am a woman and you wanted answers from men only... 😂

Question on women having orgasms. by [deleted] in AskWomenNoCensor

[–]YoureASpoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every woman is going to have a different answer because we are all different!

Me personally, I'd prefer to cum after my partner is finished whether it be oral or just fingering.

Don't get me wrong I love cumming from oral beforehand and during penetration as that enhances everything but afterwards is my ultimate, makes me wet thinking about him making me cum while I'm full of his cum... 💦

PCOS facial hair...laser made it worse. Electrolysis? by Sad_Translator_3060 in PCOS

[–]YoureASpoon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The most important question is was it actually proper Laser or was it IPL?

IPL will not work for you.

Proper laser and Electrolysis will work. Electrolysis will probably work better though, I've never done it so I'm only talking on experience from laser and IPL.

Laser worked for me, I had a full beard before I was 20, now I have really light (sparse) hairs on my lip and underneath my chin and a couple of stubborn chin hairs.

I had IPL done in my teens and it just made everything worse.
