Honestly probably the best written post I've seen on Lemmy.

I'm still not truly convinced it's not some kind of meme/ weird in-joke that I just don't get. Like, that just seems so obviously unsanitary and with no obvious appeal that I just cannot accept that it can be something that more than a extremely tiny fraction of people actually do

[–] Lmaydev@programming.dev 3 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Kissing is similarly gross if you think about it.

[–] RootBeerGuy@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I guess you eat a lot of shit?

[–] Lmaydev@programming.dev 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Any house with a toilet is covered in a micro layer of shit particles so most likely.

[–] Scrongle@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Do you press your mouth against the toilet and flap your tongue around on it?

Read the comment, it's talked about by the nurse

[–] Lmaydev@programming.dev 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

They only really covered STIs. But there's a huge range of things in your mouth. Colds and flus are big ones obviously. But also things like mono etc.

Any exchange of fluids is a risk. Just have to be as clean as possible and choose your partners well.

[–] davidgro@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

In that second comment they talk about the normal stuff that comes with oral/vaginal and how it's not like what's in/around the butt. STIs are called out as an exception, they aren't what the comment is really about.

The jist is that you can get some temporary inconvenience with a new partner, but it's unlikely to be anything serious.

[–] MagicPterodactyl@lemmy.ml 3 points 8 months ago

It's definitely not a meme. About half my partners have wanted it done to them, wanted to do it to me, or both. It's feels good.

I feel the exact same way.

I don't know anyone who beats about it IRL, and I couldn't think of a bigger turnoff.

I'm sure it happens, but it's gotta be a very very small percentage of people.

The assumption that you're not making any contact with fecal material if you're not eating ass is fallacious to begin with. There's a certain point where you just gotta realize you have an immune system for a reason.

Wow, that was one seriously risky click. Completely lost my appetite for lunch, and that was after skipping breakfast because I was rushed this morning.

Goddammit, I hope this hasn’t killed supper for me as well.

...how common are worms in humans?

Link seems broken/incorrect, all I get when I click it is "Server error"

@southsamurai@sh.itjust.works thanks for the incredible write up!

[–] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 3 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Glad you enjoyed my ass... writing

[–] jak@sopuli.xyz 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I have to ask- is eating pussy or licking balls really more sanitary? If buttcheeks are problematic for bacterial regrowth, surely an asshole (less likely to be freshly cleaned at that) an inch away from the thing you’re licking is also a source for that.

[–] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Define sanitary.

No body to body contact is truly sanitary in the strictest sense.

And, you're absolutely right that the proximity of the anus to the genitalia means there will be at least occasional stray bacteria reaching said genitalia.

However, because the non-STD bacteria that are the biggest risk with eating ass aren't as well equipped to last on the balls or vulva, and the vagina itself is moderately acidic, the risk of e-coli getting into your mouth in enough quantity and being alive enough to get past your immune system is lower than with direct analingus/rimming.

The butt cheeks are also a much lower risk, but all of the area is a non-zero risk without serious efforts akin to surgical scrubbing. Even that is only temporary.

E-coli can indeed be found in the vagina, on the vulvae, and on the scrotum. That's one of the reasons that you should always use a barrier during sexual contact. Even if you know someone is STD free, you have to be prepared for the inevitable cross contamination. If you're with a partner long term, that's inevitable, so you might as well just get it over with, but for short term or single encounter partners? Dental dams and condoms are cheaper than antibiotics.

Oh god I have been using the flat part of my tongue.

[–] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 1 points 8 months ago

Gotta use the tip more. Not because of any risk, but because you get the job done better. You don't really lick when you're eating pussy, at least not for the entire thing. It's all about movement and suction being used in a steady, repeatable way, with just enough variation to keep it from becoming over-stimulating.

Even when you're working the clitoris while applying suction, you don't really use the flat of the tongue. You just use the first inch or so, the way you might if you were drinking from it.

Mind you, every woman is different, so there's no single "recipe" of what's going to work best, but most women tend to enjoy a ramping up of speed, pressure, and suction as they process through the arousal cycle. If you're licking with the flat of your tongue, it's really only going to work well in the very beginning, as a break for your mouth, or as a break for them between orgasms.

Using a barrier does make good technique harder, particularly with suction. But it can be done. And, tbh, if you're with a one night or other very short term partner, good enough is good enough. So you use the barrier and make up for it by being willing to keep going lol.

Lmfao, just a nurse chiming in to say I appreciate the shit out of you. Pun intended

[–] Chickenstalker@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Eating ass is repulsive. Sucking on toes is where it's at.

[–] Maven@lemmy.world 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Did you know that (at least using the Boost app) you can add tags to people's names and it appears on every comment/post they make?

How I know

[–] hexabs@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Have sex with a hundred women, no one bats an eye. Fuck a goat once.. 😭

PS: I dare you to tag me Goat Fucker.

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

Hey it works with connect app as well. Cheers, goat fucker.

[–] Maven@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

Do you have any idea how confusing this will be once I forget the context?

The context

[–] metallic_substance@lemmy.world 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Imo, both are repulsive. Also, kissing, sucking dick, and eating pussy are all repulsive. Vaginal and anal sex are pretty repulsive too when you think about it. Humans are disgusting animals. That being said, I love all of the above and will take as much as I possibly can until I'm physically unable to.

Praise tha lawd hallelujah!

[–] irreticent@lemmy.world 0 points 8 months ago

And then Jesus came...

[–] Illuminostro@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

I've wondered where this obsession with eating ass comes from. Then I remember most people are stupid and want to belong to a flock, like a sheep.

[–] Isthisreddit@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

This is exactly what I would expect to read from a normy who never had their ass eaten.

[–] Illuminostro@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

And never will. Just like I'll never eat a literal piece of shit just to "fit in." But you do you, Shooter.

[–] littlebluespark@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

More like "Scooter", considering how itchy they seem to have their bunghole scritched.

[–] leanleft@lemmy.ml 1 points 8 months ago

stds are a removed too. look it up on wikipedia and all your dreams are dead.

Where does it say anyone in this meme is a career nursing assistant? Did I miss that part or are we making shit up as usual?

[–] Maven@lemmy.world 0 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

It's not in the meme. The link should take you to a specific comment that is by a career nursing assistant.

Edit: here's a Direct link

[–] GilgameshCatBeard@lemmy.ca 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Ahh. I have .ml blocked/filtered from my feed. Thats why.

[–] Maven@lemmy.world -1 points 8 months ago

Ah yeah that would do it. The message is too long for me to screenshot but I could copy/paste it into a dm with you if you're interested in it.
