      I’m a 30-year-old guy

      Might be creative writing.

      Edit: just realized this is an audience submitted article, but I don’t retract my point

        This is a column where letters from readers are responded to by the author (and sometimes guest help). Ms. Stoya is the column’s author, and she writes responses to the letters that get sent in.

        Might still be creative writing, but not by Ms. Stoya.

          Yeah, I realized my mistake a minute after commenting and edited to point out the misunderstanding. These user submitted articles have always seemed fake to me. Particularly those from John Baron

            Huh. It even looks like you realized it before I commented, but my client didn’t show your edit!

              Between the time required for different instances to push and pull the update, and the minute required to write it, there was definitely room for a misunderstanding to brew. Browser lemmy also only publishes changes to the page when you upvote/downvote something. (But voting can also clear any comments you’re writing on that page, so be careful)

        There’s more to the story, I saw the full article somewhere else. Dude can’t finish without a condom now because of nerves. It seems pretty believable.

          Read the article and I wish them well, if it isn’t a cheeky bit of chicanery. Poking holes in the condom would also work, in addition to the soul searching and ED medication they suggested

      I’ve heard stories if having sex using a woman’s urethra and not understanding things. Ive also heard stories about Mormons who don’t know how sex works at all and not understanding how they weren’t having children even after they were hokding hands and stuff.

      Basically, this could be fake but I’ve heard much worse from more reliable sources.

        Urethral penetration is a fetish and requires stretching. You can’t just push a penis inside of one. Not even by accident.

          You apparently can if this is accurate. Yeah, it’s painful obviously.

            Woah holy shit. Every day on the internet you learn something new. The links in that reddit thread are dead now but it’s easy to find on the Hub.

        I was literally going to mention the urethra story. I am now very concerned that you mentioned “stories”, plural.

      it used to be a priests job to tell a couple getting married about this.

      we take education for granted, especially when there’s misinformation around

        Because getting sex ed from a man who isn’t supposed to know anything at all about a woman’s sexual preferences and responses is totally the way to ensure a long and happy and productive marriage.

        Only because it was also a priest’s job to tell single people that thinking about sex before marriage was going to condemn them to an eternity in hell.
