No Stupid Questions
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. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Don't he'll end up asking you to clean it
As far as societal norms go, a 9/10.
As far as actually being unhealthy? Depends. If this is a sex positive, giving you the tools you need, and being supportive type of thing, i would say this is unconventional but healthy. If it's some sort of personal involvement or insertion into your sex life, I would say this is very unhealthy.
Your mom getting involved in any sort of sexual topic can be really uncomfortable, but that doesn't make it wrong, it just needs to be in a healthy, mature, and appropriate way.
Is it weird as in the sense of being uncommon? Yes.
Is it weird in the sense of being gross or harmful? No.
"Normal" people tend to be prudish as fuck about sex and won't even talk about it even for the sake of education. Normalize buying sex toys for your sex-aged sons and daughters. Normalize talking about sex. Normalize not being embarassed about sex.
It isn't an inherently problematic act in itself but it is very weird and I'd be shocked if it has ever happened without being connected to some very creepy shit.
Pretty expensive gift. Most fleshlights are pretty expensive. Do what you will with that info.
Yeah, I know the bitch spent $100 on something for him when I was prostituting myself to afford $60 for Pearson’s fucking chemistry question textbook.
I heard all the books are free now? Considering you're on here you probably knew that already though..
Quite abnormal. Not bad, though.
How about a card filled with 150 bucks. Then a joke on it....go by a fleshlight or take a girl out on a date. Happy Birthday!
Buying one straight up is just plain odd and should not happen.
Very weird, almost enough to not make eye contact for a couple months.
If context makes it worse then were already not in a good place my guy
- Talking about sex: Perfectly healthy and is something every parent should do.
- Talking about sex toys and flashlights: Also perfectly normal.
- Requesting/offering help in purchasing a flashlight (e.g. take my credit card and buy something under my name or driving them to a sex shop): Normal
- Choosing the fleshlight for them and thus making the decision in exactly what kind of sensations they experience while masturbating: Out of bounds.
(lol) every parent should talk about proper illumination!
Keeping a flashlight handy and charged could save your life.
(It could, but also, that auto incorrect made me giggle.)
Depends on if you gifted her a dildo prior.
The Bad Dragon Chance XL makes the perfect Mother's Day gift.
Super fucking weird
I thought it was weird when my parents bought me a Sports Illustrated swimsuit calendar when I was around that age. So... yah... that's not normal.
First time I went into a sex shop was as a kid with my parents. They wanted to buy my brother a gag gift because he stayed home alone for the first time while we went on vacation. They settled on penis pasta (warning, increase in size when cooked) while I tried to appear to not be looking at anything.
Yeah, buying your kid sex stuff is generally seen as weird. But ultimately only you can say how your family does things.
I'm pretty fucked up as a person, and I think this would be weird as all fuck. I think most people consider fleshlights pretty taboo to begin with.
