This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I can't wrap my mind around not wanting it gone as soon as possible

At that point, condoms are probably better. It's easy cleanup and you don't have to deal with semen.

Yeah, does seemen not like, impregnate people?

Sorry if you meant this as a joke because I am going to take this literally (lol) but yes semen can impregnate people with uteruses but this can be mitigated with birth control. Oral birth control pills, IUD, arm implant, depo shot, etc. I have never had a pregnancy scare or unexpected pregnancy (nulliparous). Some people are into breeding fetishes or quiverfull, but I'm more of "I'll have one kid in the future, maybe."

Hey I mean, in this guy's defense, his user name literally is WorldsDumbestMan.

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That's why I was so confused that they just leave it there.

Ok so let's talk about conception briefly. You cannot physically remove the sperm from a female's reproductive parts (fallopian tubes) after ejaculation in an attempt to prevent pregnancy. Sperm travels very fast. Douching does not prevent pregnancy and can even push sperm further into the uterus. Hormonal birth control can prevent ovulation and thicken the cervical mucus to prevent pregnancy (sperm has to enter the cervix to get to the fallopian tubes). Condoms should be self-explanatory as a physical barrier.
