What is a normally taboo or socially uncomfortable topic, that you think needs more open discussion?

[Agape93]

[ChrisMaster69]

Since I joined this site in February, I have been appalled just how little people know about sex, sex health, basic sexual hygiene

not naming countries but fuck me Americans, the lack of knowledge among adults even is fucking terrible.

Then you have people (cough religious) telling people it’s a sin or simply the wrong information.

Also obviously Mental Health, notice it’s not a fucking Illness.

the stigmatising over this from some areas is bollox.

BDSM, fuck sake, it’s not 50 Shades, it’s about Trust, Respect, Honesty, Communication and Informed Consent.

Sexuality, … grr, okay

rant over.

Having read @WowwGirl reply about Foster System

I would definitely add the Care System. I think you can likely pick any country on the globe and it’s shit, it reminds me very much of @Still-alive question on Silence is Violence.

This is following a chat yesterday with some close friends at my house.

I’ve lost count on the numbers I’ve met in person and listened to about life in care.

[WowwGirl]

Thank you

[Bricealan]

I just read your... input... and have no idea what you just said?

[ChrisMaster69]

@Bricealan hmmm

I under stood your socially uncomfortable mutual masturbation, yes a major point to bring to the table.

Okay Care system is open to abuse and is abusing countless thousands likely millions over the years of children, not enough is said about it.
It is a socially uncomfortable topic.

I guess, for some masturbation is more important that other stuff.

Why do we still have people sleeping on concrete, wrapped up in cardboard and filthy wrags in so called first-world, modernized countries? Why? This goes for the whole of the western world. Why do some parts of our nations look like Somalia? Why do 2% of the world's population control 80% of its wealth? And I'm not some hippie leftie. I'm actually pretty conservative. It's wrong and it bothers me, but nobody ever says a fucking word about it. It's a legimate question that people ought to be talking about.

[MidnightSun2]

Mental health stigma
Unfortunately, negative attitudes and beliefs toward people who have a mental health condition are common. Society considers people with mental illnesses to be more dangerous than they are. Societal discrimination leads to further conditions such as anxiety, stress, and low self-esteem among those affected. People with such illnesses frequently avoid necessary treatment in order to escape the stigma.

[MaddyLD]

Probably magic mushrooms. Like if you do the slightest amount of research on them you will find way more positive info than negative and they can totally be used for good. Also I think some states in the US have legalized them but I can't remember which ones. But yeah. If you are against the use of magic mushrooms than straight up, it's because you don't understand how they work and what they actually do to people.

[OlderAndWiser]

Maybe we should have more discussion about whether our dicks are big enough. :) :) :)

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

I think Sexuality Topic needs discussed more, there are people of all ages on here, and when they ask a question.. Can you get pregnant by dry humping, fingering, or handjobs, blowjobs... Now we know that as far as I know, there is no way 2
people dry humping through underwear and panties that a pregnancy can take
place now this is a set of red flags that these people are under age 13 and
shouldn't be on this site and it's scary that is why some people anonymous
ask these questions and are age 18-24 or 35-40 makes me wonder just how
old are these people also we know that one engages in oral sex that semen
swallowed can't get a girl pregnant, so we get them questions to on here
and this is scary to me, course some may be age 13 and not educated
I know my parents never gave me the birds and bees talk, I started making
semen at age 12 and got scared that I needed to go to the hospital so
it happens?

[Bee-Hatch]

Assisted suicide in cases where a long painful disease or problem will result in death, or cases like altzheimers where what made the person the self will be lost with the onset of the disease. Fucking awful way to go. And maybe those over a set age that choose not to go on, because the toll of advanced years is taking away their dignity.

[ChrisMaster69]

@bee-hatch fully support this.

[Still-alive]

Safe and socially responsible Female promiscuity needs to be discussed more and destigmatized.
expecting downvotes

[Agape93]

Won’t get one from me

[Still-alive]

Yeah expecting more from incels :p

[ohshee]

I like just about everything I don't care what it's about the more taboo the more off the wall it is the better it is because I like to be honest about no matter what it is how I feel about it you always have very good questions I like yours so I just say keep asking I'll keep answering

[EmbraceThePain]

-culture of drug/vice use and indulgence within the US


-consequences of having many sexual partners whether it be physical, emotional, or mental. Also, what this means for future relationships, pair bonding, objectification, etc.


-origins of one’s products (slave labor, unethical means, etc)

[tasleen]

Few are breastfeeding in public, talking about sex with young children, sexual problems specially with man

[Josiebaker]

Would you talk to me about that in private please

[loveslongnails]

How certain people rudely (constantly?) interrupt other people's conversations, AND why the person you were talking to in the first place disregards you at that point and starts talking to them! Growing up in my house, that wasn't allowed. The interrupter was silenced immediately by the person you were talking to, out of respect.

This rude phenomenon seems to have flourished in the last 20 years of self importance, self-indulgence and me first generations.

[Ez-Bri-Z]

We talk about sex and gender rights a lot, but I think none of that matters if we don't talk about about the environment and renewable energy

[Aimée__LJ]

Sex. Everything about it, sexual organs, sexualities, protection, cleaning, tips and tricks.

[worldscolide]

Mental health for both genders.. Not kidding here, Its a bit easier for women where im from, but its still taboo for both.

[angel39373]

Sex, mental health, abuse, stuff like that would be a start.

[Leavesbound]

You ask a taboo topic but don't permit anonymity? LOL did you get a lot of response?

[Agape93]

Correct. Part of what makes open discussion a thing, is that it’s open. No anonymity.
Yeah I have plenty of responses right now. So are you going to post one or not?

[Leavesbound]

No, there is a reason these topics are taboo and people get banned from this web site for talking about them too much.

[Agape93]

If you have nothing to contribute, then don’t post.

[TheBigGuy9]

The true History starting from 1800 when Democrat party was formed til today. That way people might be able to figure out that leftists never switched on Racism with Republicans. How they are still everything they claim they are not.

[NorthwestRider]

Femdom
Drugs
Mental heath
Teaching minors of sex

[normalice]

Politics in general. Usually those with the best opinions are the most shy about expressing it.

[Jenngirl00]

Sex and nudity. It is brought up a lot, but taken wrong in so many ways.

[Bricealan]

Masturbation and mutual masturbation, that followed by butt fucking !

[MaddyLD]

I don't think that's a topic than really needs an extensive discussion and will help humanity progress at all.

[Bricealan]

@MaddyLD That was not a 'qualifier' in the question asked, or did you read it. She asked about "Taboo" subjects? She didn't ask about "Taboo' subjects that would help humanity progress? if she asked that I would have responded accordingly, but am not really well versed in topic that would aid in the progression of the human race? If asked that, I would research the topic.

[MaddyLD]

Ok so when would there really be an appropriate time to have an "open discussion" about that butt fucking? Because realistically the only person that you should discuss that with is your partner and maybe your friends, which is already a completely normal thing to do. Unless the people in your life are insanely boring.

[Jersey2]

That you shouldn’t be able to call people racist if they haven’t actually done or said anything that is racist, even if you disagree with them.

[Pete671]

Sex for disabled people, people with disabilities have just the same needs,

[Vietnemin]

How awesome I am. Also how high heels are oppressive

[BobbyC65]

Public nudity in a non-sexual way just to be naked nude outside of the house. 💞

[bannacookies]

Nudity. Just because someone is naked doesn't mean anything sexy.

[Libbers]

Mental health issues.

[ChrisMaster69]

@libbers it does seem to be a very common topic but just does not get the correct factual coverage

[EnglishEuropean]

The banking industry. i. e. the biggest scam in the history of mankind.

[Bricealan]

Is that a 'taboo' subject?

[EnglishEuropean]

@Bricealan Very much so.

[PinkHamster]

Sex education and life after death

[suisuiola]

Mental health, sexuality, societies problems...

[thotmas97]

I know this is vague but Mental health

[Gwenhwyfar]

Masturbation

[MaddyLD]

No offense but I don't think there's really anything more to be said about masturbation. I mean I think 99% of people would agree it should not be a public thing, and should be done a healthy amount.

[Gwenhwyfar]

@MaddyLD I disagree. I think a lot can be said about it. So do most sexologists.

[MaddyLD]

Name one thing that can be said about it.

[Gwenhwyfar]

@MaddyLD it’s fun

[Bricealan]

@gwenhwyfar I agree with you but the 18 year old magic mushroom pusher thinks other wise. Jesus P. S. she didn't tell me 'no offense"

[beebella]

Death

[Pogi-Paddy-2]

Mental health and the negative stigma around it.🔓

[Dchrls78104]

The rights and role of fathers.

[FunkyMonkee]

Fucking.

[Bricealan]

AND sucking !

[exitseven]

Body odor.

[WowwGirl]

Foster system

[wearehere2002]

sex and money

[UnknownUser01]

White privilage.

[MaddyLD]

Also spelling. Spelling would be an important topic to discuss.

[Pete671]

@MaddyLD Spelling SHOULD be an important topic for discussion lol, and writing lol instead of LOL (acronym),,,

[shydude1991]

Sexism in women
