> Yes there are medical risks to anal sex
"Women in the UK are suffering injuries and other health problems as a result of the growing popularity of anal sex among straight couples, two NHS [British National Health Service] surgeons have warned. The consequences include [fecal] incontinence and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) as well as pain and bleeding because they have experienced bodily trauma while engaging in the practice, the doctors write in an article in the British Medical Journal. Tabitha Gana and Lesley Hunt also argued that doctors’ reluctance to discuss the risks associated with anal sex was leading to women being harmed by the practice and letting down a generation of women who are not aware of the potential problems."
… "National Survey of Sexual Attitudes research undertaken in Britain has found that the proportion of 16- to 24-year-olds engaging in heterosexual anal intercourse has risen from 12.5% to 28.5% over recent decades. Similarly, in the US 30% to 45% of both sexes have experienced it. “It is no longer considered an extreme behaviour but increasingly portrayed as a prized and pleasurable experience,” wrote Hunt, a surgeon in Sheffield, and Gana, a trainee colorectal surgeon in Yorkshire."
"Many doctors, though, especially GPs and hospital doctors, are reluctant to talk to women about the risks involved, partly because they do not want to seem judgmental or homophobic, they add. “However, with such a high proportion of young women now having anal sex, failure to discuss it when they present with anorectal symptoms exposes women to missed diagnoses, futile treatments and further harm arising from a lack of medical advice,” the surgeons said. NHS patient information about the risks of anal sex is incomplete because it only cites STIs, and makes “no mention of anal trauma, [fecal] incontinence or the psychological aftermath of the coercion young women report in relation to this activity”. Health professionals’ disinclination to discuss the practice openly with patients “may be failing a generation of young women, who are unaware of the risks”."

> ultimately the choice lies with the receptive participant
I wrote this recently elsewhere: many—probably even most—receptive people are not aware of all of the risks involved, particularly the traumatic risks to themselves. As I pointed out numerous times over the years with varying wording, there wouldn't be so many people engaging in clearly destructive anoreceptive acts if they were aware of all of the risks involved to themselves — most especially the traumatic risks.

"Pornography has become a primary source of sexual education. At the same time, mainstream commercial pornography has coalesced around a relatively homogenous script involving violence and female degradation. Yet, little work has been done exploring the associations between pornography and dyadic sexual encounters: What role does pornography play inside real-world sexual encounters between a man and a woman? Cognitive script theory argues media scripts create a readily accessible heuristic model for decision-making. The more a user watches a particular media script, the more embedded those codes of behavior become in their worldview and the more likely they are to use those scripts to act upon real life experiences. We argue pornography creates a sexual script that then guides sexual experiences. To test this, we surveyed 487 college men (ages 18-29 years) in the United States to compare their rate of pornography use with sexual preferences and concerns. Results showed the more pornography a man watches, the more likely he was to use it during sex, request particular pornographic sex acts of his partner, [and] deliberately conjure images of pornography during sex to maintain arousal…"

This too:

"Experts say teenage girls are copying what they see in pornography and seeking treatment from family doctors for injuries sustained during “rough sex”. They believe it’s part of the dark side of the sexualisation of the internet generation."
… "According to Reality and Risk, more than 90 per cent of boys and 60 per cent of girls have watched pornography online. Of those videos, more than 88 per cent include physical aggression."
… "Allison Pearson, a columnist for The Telegraph in London, wrote earlier this year that young women are engaging in sex that their bodies are “simply not designed for”. She said a GP she spoke with confessed a growing number of teenage girls were being treated for internal injuries caused by frequent anal sex “not because (they) wanted to, or because (they) enjoyed it — on the contrary — because a boy expected (them) to”."
… "[Dr Meagan Tyler, a research fellow at RMIT University] said research shows women are suffering from faecal incontinence as a result of anal sex and that they’re “uncomfortable” with the assumption that it’s become “the norm”. “That’s the brutal material reality for what it means for these young women’s lives.”"
… "Dr Tyler said tackling the problem is not easy but it’s time educators had a more realistic conversation with young people about what they’re seeing online. “You can’t pretend pornography doesn’t exist,” she said. “I think we’re getting somewhere in that there’s more public discussion about it (but) we’re going to need to start talking about more serious and comprehensive sex education.”"

> the original thread had been locked
Yes it has been, for invalid reasons as I explained. I expect it to be unlocked.
> posting lorum ipsum
I did not post that. Somebody else did.
> threaten the chan as a whole to go on your shit list
I do not lightly include a site in that list. Seisatsu, if (s)he does not reverse course, has earned this site's inclusion in it for reasons that ought to be very obvious from what I pointed out previously.
> do tell what you intend to do if this chan is on your shit list, good Samaritan?
Speaking of someone ignoring what I wrote… As I pointed out countless times before, ultimately this is not about me. See also what was written about logically-fallacious diversionary tactics, reproduced below.

Logically-fallacious diversionary tactics:
• A red herring is a tangential topic introduced intentionally as a distraction or inadvertently. Trying to create an unrelated discussion about a messenger or claimant (e.g. by introducing alleged personal attributes or asking about unstated opinions) is one _very_ common example.
• An ad hominem logical fallacy involves arguing or implying that some supposed attribute(s) of a messenger or source somehow affects the validity of one or more claims presented when any such characteristic is completely irrelevant — and this is nonsensical for cases in which information originates from others. (Sometimes such characteristics can be relevant: For example, it may be appropriate to question someone's honesty when she makes a claim about herself or her own experiences. However, a better idea may be to mention the anecdotal evidence logical fallacy, i.e. favoring some personal anecdote(s) over evidence based on science and logic.)
• Misrepresentation—introducing a distorted version of something—is another means of creating a diversion. Attacking a fabrication in order to suggest refutal of what was actually presented constitutes a straw man logical fallacy. (A refutation featuring one or more vague, sweeping claims without proof may be related. The burden of proof rests on the claimant.)

It is suggestive of a nefarious agenda and/or psychopathy to purposely and repeatedly try to draw attention away from anorectal anatomy andPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

You're right, I did not read your entire article and full thread in the little time I have each day to make moderation decisions, I spent about 10 minutes gathering what I could from the posts (admittedly while still waking up) and made a judgment based on my personal biases, and drew on my experiences with ways that people try to mask propaganda. This is very spammy and uncomfortable but I guess it's valuable info and really doesn't violate any rules. I really don't have the time or energy to fully examine something this girthy so I'll take your word for your motivations. Sorry I locked your thread, I will unlock it now and lock this one.

>>3858
No thanks.

As a black trans-racial queer woman I find the sexual fetishisation of People of Color to be just as bad as the blatant racism. The whole thread should have just been deleted.

>>3860
I don't understand, so you're black or you're white and you want to be black?

If you say "where's the snow" three times in front of a mirror at midnight while holding a melon he will appear behind you.

Thank you I will try this tonight

Thanks, /recent/ is fixed.

Stop summoning me I got shit to do.

This is worse when you have a small monitor/low screen resolution…

I can turn it down, but my blood oath with Chesir and Seagal prevents me from turning it off until late January.

You can learn to use an AdBlock.

Sei did something funny nearly a decade ago, now everybody must pay, forever.

>>3818
You should've left it, I like the </div>ening

Californian

>>3805
ey you call us what ese? you trying to diss us cabron?

It was fun for a moment, but it wasn't going to last here.

You are now leaving California.

If California's bad, it implies that "good" is Texas or something. Texas didn't manage to build most of the internet. I don't like how this emphasizes a turning-away from what California was supposed to be, to whatever wants to steal its place as the seat of American aspiration.

It should be "Brooklynite".

I've been sending "ur a faget lol" to the blog of the creator of Miserere for about six years now, maybe more, and I am not planning to stop.

But, muh custom legacy theme from Tinyboard Alpha circa 2011! :(
He is my son.

>>3795
what's up with this guy anyway

>>3796
I don't know but he's the proud new owner of several custom spam filter blocks.

>>3788
who cares?

>>3789
You supposedly do. You're a hypocrite.

>>3790
Most people with diagnosed aspd also have nothing to do with anything and lead decent lives. Yet it's socially acceptable to demonize them and use outdated terms for their condition as a synonym for anybody that hurts others for their own benefit.

>>3791
I mean I have [redacted] but I don't get upset when I see people calling shit [redacted] because I understand that it's very annoying to live with

also I've got reservations about the whole ASPD vampire chic thing. Like, I understand being sick of hypertrophied '10s moralism, and I understand being enraged at having to accept bad arguments from smug people in regard to various taboos that aren't even usefully enforced, and I sympathize with having been beaten on enough that other people default to vermin, but we already did this and it resulted in, like, the occurring noetic-historical moment, so

Ok I think this thread has seen enough.

Thanks, I am noticing this too. I may need to add a hook back to rebuild the frontpage theme whenever a post is made.

>>3758
However it only seems to be an issue with new threads, not with posts in existing threads. Are you getting similar results?

I did a fix earlier that might change some behavior, but the new threads are still not showing up for me.

looks like its fixed

>>3760
Is it though?

Yes, please. Use Matrix instead of Discord, at the very least.

>>3747
I also would prefer Matrix, except that it's still pretty buggy. Even so, it's not a bad idea, but it'll only attract a small subset of users. I imagine actually that it'll attract a different subset than Discord, so I may consider putting up an Uboachan Matrix as a fun little experiment. Maybe it'll go somewhere.

If anyone's interested, here's Uboachan on Matrix.

>>3753
hell yeah sei

>>3753
are there any Matrix clients that aren't complete garbage?
Discord has only become bearable for me because of the existence of Ripcord, but it doesn't look like there is anything remotely comparable in terms of actual usability and completeness for Matrix.
Everything other than Quaternion listed on https://matrix.org/clients/ is either a terminal client, or has some awful sparse UI design and doesn't treat channels hierarchically.

Cheers Sei, there is still no evidence of Kikiyama actually endorsing Project Yume Nikki btw.

I'm glad this place is still here. Thank you for keeping the lights on.

im glad this forum is still here, cheers man

I'm eternally grateful to you for maintaining this site, it is truly one of a kind.

Congrats, man.
