****names have been changed to protect the guilty****

A young woman named Brooke Lynne was madly in love with her devoted boyfriend named Manhattan. One day, a girl named Harlem claimed to be pregnant with Manhattan's child and he, of course, denied it. After some bullying, Manhattan admitted to receiving oral sex from Harlem, but denied getting her pregnant. When Brooke asked why on earth she should believe him, he replied "Well, I'm not saying she's that devious, but all I know is that, when it over, she went to the bathroom and her mouth was full." Though she was heartbroken, Brooke tried to make amends with Harlem, saying that she wouldn't believe such a ridiculous lie. Surprisingly, instead of appreciating Brooke's belief in her, Harlem bristled and declared, "Hey, it doesn't matter how I got pregnant, the fact is that I am and it's Manhattan's. Don't worry about how it happened!"

This, ladies and gentleman, is why it is possible to get pregant from oral sex alone. And why I am ashamed to actually know these people. :rolleyes:

I'm guessing that "Harlem" got creative in the bathroom. :eek: Scary.

Just trying to complete the effect?

:confused: I'm not really familiar with the naming of porn stars, so I'll take your word for it. If it makes you uncomfortable, you can call them Orange, Lemon, and Apple if you like.

The whole thing was crazy. Every now and then, I do wonder how that kid's doing, though.

the dumbest thing i was ever told about sex/relationships is that girls like nice guys.

I think your post is one of the dumbest things I've ever read about drugs.

What if you were allergic to MDMA/ amphetamines? you might say it's impossible to slip someone some X but is it just X that it's so hard to give someone? (i actually am curious, b/c of the taste, unable to breakdown in drinks, etc?) what if you gave it to someone and told them it was something else, that doesn't seem to hard.
(I've been drugged before. I had one beer. I blacked out and almost choked on my own vomit. I had no idea what was going, thank god my friends were there, so I'm a little defensive when it comes to saying that its "impossible" to give someone anything. )

And you can die from taking these drugs, you might have a reaction to the mdma or amphetamines.

What is certain is that taking MDMA can prove fatal. A few people are particularly chemically sensitive to the drug and just one dose may be enough to kill them. Some of those who have suffered liver failure have required liver transplants, but the transplants have not always been successful.

Other fatalities associated with MDMA have been due to an overdose, the signs of which include vomiting, dizziness, head pains and strong muscle cramps. The most common cause of MDMA-related death, however, is due to the drug inducing a rise in body temperature to the point of hyperthermia (overheating).

The potential danger of hyperthermia is all the greater for clubbers. Part of the drug's appeal to clubbers is that the paradoxical relaxation effect, the unawareness ingredient, allows them to dance for a long time without feeling tired. But in doing so they are pushing their body temperatures up further.

The loss of body fluids through sweating and the often crowded, perhaps airless environment are factors, too. The result can be extreme heatstroke. To add another possible problem to the pile, the paradoxical relaxation effect also means that most of those in danger of overheating don't even realise it.

In the same way that their legs don't seem to feel tired, they're oblivious to the normal warning signs that their temperature is soaring and their pulse is racing.

so maybe his post isn't all that stupid.

ETA: these were the most "credible" sites i could find for the time being.

Anatomical virginity--I would say yes. Actual, like for real "I've had sex" virginity--I don't think so.

Hey, seems logical to me too. :p

The vagina is self cleaning, but if the balance is too off, you will get an infection.

That is true. But, often times, the body will return the balance to normal and the yeast infection will clear up before you even knew you had one. The horomones released during the differnt stages of the cycle often counter act the imbalance.

At least....that's what my doctor told me. :confused:

Okay my girl is a nurse and I nearly died when she told me someone said "I'm still a virgin because I didn't move." Mind you that penetration did occur.

I never wanted to laugh so much in my life.

Just trying to help...

When the woman has other issues like an STI, it makes the problem worse. Namely, Chlamydia, HPV, HSV and HIV infections.

So please! If a physician gives you treatment for yeast infection, please take it and follow through with the regimen. Because it is thought in the field that massive infection of outgrowths is the gateway to worse vaginal infections and very bad diseases, such a Vaginitis, Pelvic Inflammatory Disease, and all lead to infertility...

Your physician recommended not douching because you do not want ruin the balance of your normal vaginal flora. I don't do it, so I do not know the latest research on that subject. But that information your physician has is at least 20 years old and I am unsure what the relevancy is regard it... What I mean is what does Massingill have to say about it?

Monet,

Are you a doctor or nurse?? Very detailed and thanks for the info!! I do appreciate it.

I'm sure all the men on here wanted such a detailed account of vaginal chemicals. :p

Monet's a microbionuclearphysiogenonanologist.

Actually, I forgot exactly what she does - something medical/bio, and she has at least one PhD.

^^YOU ARE TOO FUNNY!!! ;) I'm not anal :( You should meet some of the folks in my lab!

AlwaysSAI: I am in biotech and I am a research scientist with a Ph.D. However, I work on some clinical trials and interact with a lot of physicians... :)

Not anal - you broke the word in the wrong place...

Actually... My husband's anal retentive...

Anyhow, the difference between a micro and nano scale is 10^-6th to 10^-9th... And am forced to know this junk in my head... No wonder I am crazy! :eek:
