I’ve attempted the cock-in-mouth thing a few times but despite being pretty flexible can’t do more than touch the tip of the bell end with my tounge, and that’s just no fun at all. Easier to get someone else to do it. 😉 ---

> [@Agent\_Foxtrot](#): > > I’ll ask about it! Thanks! > I don’t really have any of those symptoms. When people with celiac disease eat gluten, a response is triggered by the body’s immune system that damages the lining of the small intestine. Over time, this interferes with the absorption of nutrients and can lead to a wide range of serious problems. Because of this, people with celiac disease must avoid eating anything with gluten in it. **Celiac disease is often undiagnosed** Some of the symptoms of celiac disease are like those of many other digestive disorders. For this reason, people with celiac disease often go undiagnosed and untreated for many years. It’s estimated that nearly 3 million Americans have the disease, but only about 100,000 are diagnosed. Celiac disease runs in families and occurs in both children and adults. **Signs and symptoms of celiac disease** Most people with celiac disease have one or more symptoms, although some people don’t notice any symptoms. To find out if you have celiac disease, see your doctor and ask about having a test. Intestinal gas, bloating, and abdominal cramping Diarrhea or bloody diarrhea Fatty stools Constipation Anemia Weight loss Slowed growth in children Osteoporosis (brittle bones) Itchy, bumpy skin rash Infertility Anorexia Vitamin deficiencies Delayed puberty Inflammatory bowel disease Irritable bowel disorder [Cite](http://www.celiacplus.com/patient/About.asp) The interesting thing is that you don’t have to have any of the symptoms beyond maybe just loose bowels and unexplainable weight gain/loss - and still have it. I didn’t find out until this year - and I’m in my late 30s! ---

As for my TMI - I once convinced myself I had accidentally left a tampon in and couldn’t find it after several searches by myself and my then-bf. I was so paranoid I went to the emergency room where they were out of beds with stirrups - so they had me balance on an upside down bedpan while the doctor dug around in my coochie until he reached my clavicle, I swear. He looked thoroughly disgusted at me when he didn’t find anything - like I was some sort of hospital sex-perv freak who was in to that - and I went home with my tail between my legs (which was more than we found out was actually there.) ---

Wow- that post was like a bucket of cold water thrown at what was until then a nice little sexually oriented thread. (the one about celiac’s disease, not the one about the tampon). ---

My current TMI: I just went to take a piss, and I guess I didn’t shake too well. Theres about a teaspoon of urine spotting the front of my jeans right now. ---

> [@Illuminatiprimus](#): > > I’ve got a better one - I’ve _been_ a prostitute that someone has performed oral sex on (I performed it on him as well, of course) Wellll, since you’ve admitted it…I wouldn’t go as far as calling myself a prostitute, but I have (on only a few rare occasions) accepted money for sex, from guys I wouldn’t even think of having sex with in any other circumstance. On another track, many, many years ago, I got so drunk that I actually vomited on someone _while we were having sex._ ---

I get the occasional thick black hair around my nipples. I tweeze them. I think I masturbate an awful lot for a girl. I think I watch more porn than most girls do. ---

> [@Beware\_of\_Doug](#): > > This is comparatively lame-o, but when I was under the gas having my deviated septum fixed, the doctor had occasion to stick a rattail file up my nose and \*shkk shkk \*down some protruding bony points inside. After which I had, like, _collar stays_ stitched down inside my nostrils for about 4 days. And said nose was all wrapped up in tape, and I couldn’t blow it or pick it or nothing although it dripped like a motherfuck. Been there, done that! As with this post, there are many TMI stories shared by others in this thread that I have also done but I’ll be damned if I’m going to admit exactly WHICH ones! 😃 ---

These are some surprising TMI posts. Everything I do seems to be TMI… I always keep a wad of TP in my buttcrack. I sometimes can’t wipe 100% efficiently. And even if I do, I sweat a lot, and it itches like crazy. I often take a butter knife, wrap it in TP, and use it to scratch my butthole for like minutes at a time. No, I don’t have a huge 'roid. Yet. My favorite pet cat is a fecophiliac. He pushes his way into the bathroom when I shit, and waits for head scratches. Then, he pushes his face up to the crack between the seat and bowl, and stays there for a few seconds. I talk about my bowel movements. My wife hates it. I get occasional huge zits on my legs - last week, I squoze one, and shot blood onto the wall 5 feet away, 6 feet up. I think it would’ve cleared the center field fence at the Polo Grounds. I love to scratch the back of my ears and smell it - just like cheese, even if I’m freshly showered. I once drank a small amount of sex lube in a drunken haze. I woke up thirsty and thought it was water. I didn’t realize until the next day. Lots more, I assure you. Joe ---

They have these wonderful things called moist wipes. All the cleanliness of a bidet, with the convenience of tp. A lot of folks in this thread should give them a try. ---

(the one about celiac’s disease, not the one about the tampon). Sorry for the hijack on that one. I was diagnosed this year and hate for anyone else to get crohn’s disease when they don’t have to! Maybe this will help? This weekend I had my first group sex - I was being touched, finger fucked, motor boated, vibrated, dildoed, pinched, squeezed, teased and kissed all over. Then I had to excuse myself because of a massive bout of IBS that lasted the rest of the night. :smack: ---

To clarify, and hopefully make it sound a _little_ less disgusting, my experience took place at a legal brothel in Nevada. One of the requirements there is that the ladies be checked for STD’s weekly, so I felt pretty safe. Plus, she was checking in for the start of her shift when I arrived, so I know I was her first client of the day, meaning I wasn’t munching down where some other slob was sticking his dick 10 minutes before. Rationalization, what would I do without it? ---
