That’s not just a matter of our current judicial system, but the entire history of jurisprudence regarding the second amendment. Haven’t there been many court cases establishing the amendment as broadly protecting gun ownership?

It is certainly in poor taste when commenters jump straight to stuff like that without even mentioning the victim. Just as Jez rightly condemns white male entitlement when it leads to crimes, they shouldn’t shy away from condemning the parts of any culture that lead to horrible crimes like this.

Do you mean the tone of the article, or the mere fact of talking about ways to mitigate abuse rather than calling for an end to porn?

That’s a very good point! An independent monitor would be far better.

No, it was not necessary.

I thought it was a joke about self-loathing manifesting during masturbation sessions.

When they purchased the property, what name got put on the deed?

“But then I also oppose bans on simulated child pornography, which result from a well-intentioned but factually incorrect assumption that things like CGI child porn or child sex dolls encourage pedophiles to act out their fantasies on real children.”

Factually incorrect or factually unsupported? I didn’t think there…

Governor of NY is an actual job, not like governor of Texas.

God I’m slow this morning. I was trying to figure out why you were calling her “Hannah Cynthia”.

But yeah, it’s silly how society acts like (presumed?) monogamy = monosexual orientation.

This is the most compelling argument against it. It’s similar logic to the American ban on simulated CP (don’t know what France’s laws are - not something to Google at work).

Closer to the sensitivity of the clit. In terms of the head of the penis - shaft far less so.

Ah, gotcha. My understanding is that “childfree” typically refers to people planning to never have children.

I don’t think I’ve ever known a man or woman (gay or straight) to use them IRL. And only seen a couple online who said they used them.

Your impression there might be relevant to why more men than women dislike condoms - texture and wetness vs pressure and general shape.

Do you know how soon after the failure occurred? While researching it I learned that the majority of failures happen because of having unprotected sex too soon after the procedure - even after cutting off the source it takes some weeks for all of the sperm to be flushed out of the system. Clamps are also more prone to…

This is speculation, but my guess is that the closest analogue would be to have oral sex with a dental dam.

Is he childfree too? I’d strongly recommend a vasectomy. It’s an easy and affordable procedure for most and for me felt like a big burden lifted (also is one of the most effective forms of BC available) .

I think it’s just hugely variable in how much of a difference it makes. Some guys can barely tell the difference, while some have difficulty finishing or even maintaining an erection while using one.

Hopefully this isn’t TMI, but IME it doesn’t make any difference in terms of pressure, but makes a huge difference in…

Ugh. I had only seen the headline, but just read the details. Not cool.
