No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

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

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



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.

Questions 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 META posts and joke questions.

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

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

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

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser 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.



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- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

And no he does not masturbate to the image. I am pondering of either seeing a psych doc with him or his PCP. Apparently this has been going on for the past 2 years.

Possibilities:

  • Troll post
  • Trauma response
  • Faking it
  • Strict religious or other upbringing that makes it feel evil/stressful
  • Severe POIS (post orgasmic illness syndrome, but can also occur when getting aroused)
  • POTS or similar cardiovascular health condition
  • Other psychological condition

I take it he would like to watch porn but can't? Then yes, that's a problem and he should see his primary care doc first. It's a quality of life issue.

[–] 52fighters@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 2 hours ago

It is possible he is experiencing sensory overload and have undiagnosed narcolepsy.

[–] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 4 points 2 hours ago

I'd be inclined to agree with what folks have said here. But the potential trauma and potential blood pressure issue.

Only chiming in to say a friend of mine, who has a slew of other medical issues, has passed out from erections and sexual arousal. And once passed out from bottoming, so it's not some wild strange theory. It does happen.

There could be a blood pressure issue going on when he is aroused. He should see his PCP about it and go from there.

[–] ryannathans@aussie.zone 2 points 1 hour ago

Check OP post history

[–] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 hours ago

A whole gallon of PCP.

[–] GlassHalfHopeful@lemmy.ca 41 points 5 hours ago

This is the correct response. See a PCP.

And then... Immediately report back what's actually happening because this is quite interesting.

[–] thezeesystem@lemmy.blahaj.zone 41 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Other responses so far are valid but as someone who has known people with this kinda reaction to sex stuff, they had cptsd from sexual assault as a child. It triggered them. Things from childhood can pop up later in life. Or maybe a recent experience could have.

Or it could just be blood pressure. Idk. But wanted to give you my experience and knowledge.

No idea why this is downvoted. Seems like a helpful suggestion

Vasovagal syncope ? It can be triggered with extreme emotions.

[–] PoorYorick@lemmy.world 23 points 5 hours ago

This was my immediate thought.

*this is not a medical diagnosis and the person posting this recommends seeking the opinion of a medical professional.

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 29 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

Maybe he just doesn't want to watch porn with his brother?

[–] Patnou@lemmy.world 7 points 3 hours ago

Not really that but as a sister we watched something and there was a sex scene and he was passed out even before it finishedl

[–] cRazi_man@lemm.ee 14 points 4 hours ago

"Hey bro,let's watch porn together. Nothing wrong with that, right. Wait, where are you going? There must be something medically wrong with him. I should ask Lemmy."

Congenital Baptistism. Terrible fate. There's hope for a cure with Crispr, though
