People venturing outside of our atmosphere are advised against pleasuring themselves in zero gravity.

The reason? Female astronauts could accidentally get impregnated by stray fluids.

Seems all they have to do is invent some kind of nutsack.

Is it just me or does this seem tremendously unlikely and easy to prevent?

The chances of a solar particle hitting your RAM and causing a bit to flip are tremendously unlikely as well, but there's hardware made to prevent that from happening (I realize ECC does more than that).

I mean, do female astronauts/cosmonauts regularly float naked in the space station?

I propose funding for an aerospace cock sock that could keep everyone safe from stray nut.

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 10 points 1 month ago

All of the greatest inventions which revolutionized key aspects of our daily lives have begun in aerospace engineering.

Pens that write upside down. Ice cream that doesn't melt. Cock socks that don't leak and are easy to clean.

This is why we fund NASA!

Not long ago I learned nut allergies aren't really a thing anymore. https://www.theguardian.com/wellness/2025/nov/11/peanut-allergies-declining-children-explained

Bam. Fun fact.

These guys never heard of a "posh-wank?"

Edit: a posh wank is when you jerk it wearing a condom. Its also helpful if ur guy that doesnt like "the feel of condoms"

[–] saltnotsugar@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I never beat my meat at Oxford. What’s a posh-wank?

[–] Grabthar@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

A wank whilst wearing a condom

[–] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 1 month ago

With a condom is what I have heard. Expensive hence posh I guess!

[–] Sho@lemmy.world 2 points 4 weeks ago

Jacking it with a condom on

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 9 points 1 month ago (4 children)

That's when you eat your cum so you don't have to clean up right?

Thats just normal recycling

[–] dangercake@feddit.uk 4 points 1 month ago

Yeah but you have a side salad with it

[–] Sho@lemmy.world 2 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Wait why would I jack a coat if I already have a condom on?

[–] Chakravanti@monero.town 1 points 4 weeks ago

You're fine. Just wrong direction.

[–] Sho@lemmy.world 2 points 4 weeks ago
[–] spirinolas@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago

That's a normal wank...er...right? Right?

[–] pressedhams@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 1 month ago

I could Google it but I’d rather hear it from you since, no, I have never heard of a posh-wank.

[–] Kowowow@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Have they actually done a fluid simulation, I still hold the position you can't bukake in space or microgravity as it where

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Semen isn't gravity fed so I don't think the lack of it would make a difference.

[–] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

Idk I think semen can have a little gravity, as a treat
