YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.

All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.



Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:

**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

Keep it in my pants is my strategy anyhow because I'm an antinatalist and do not gamble with my ethics. There isn't a scenario where I'm trying to impregnate someone who doesn't want it, so don't come at me with a chip on your shoulder like that.

I had a friend who was born despite his father's vasectomy. I don't care what the odds are. I don't play with odds.

I'm guessing the odds are so slim that vasectomy plus condom is so close to impossible statistically speaking that you would be safe. I'm not trying to criticize your personal choice, which is perfectly valid.

I'd rather jerk it than bother with a condom and my cosmic tier anxiety about the universe I live in trying to peg me with a 'gotcha' and beating me up over failing to handle my own desire. I'll handle it.

I had kids when I got together with my now-husband and he did too, and I had a history of literally falling pregnant each of the times I didn't use birth control, so he was vasectomized AND I had IUD put in, together this was as good as science can do now and it worked perfectly. Vasectomy can regrow but IUD is very reliable.

I guess if sex isn't important to you then enjoy, or if you can enjoy sex with men that would also be 100% no chance of pregnancy. But for me, it's such a wonderful part of life, letting fear rule it seems bad.

I can't say I'm not horny as fuck. I just deal with it. It'd be pretty convenient to be gay. 🤣

Well eventually you will get old enough that the women in your age group will be through menopause, maybe then you can get back in there.

Sounds like boning dudes is right up your (or their) alley.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

That would be convenient. 🤣😭
