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.

Ok, I'm going to step up to the plate here. I'm an experienced butt stuffer. There are two main safety concerns -- having your body move things further in than you can retrieve, and unsafe materials giving you ass cancer.
You've probably heard the adage, without a base, without a trace. In essence, your pelvic floor muscles will move objects around without you being aware or being able to stop it, and it can make things very difficult to retrieve. Your rectum is actually split into two by a muscle known as the inner band, which technically isn't a sphincter but is in practicality. When we squeeze stuff out, we're compressing the bottom half, squeezing the band and loosening the anus to push stuff out. If something untethered or without a base makes it's way into the upper half, you're not just going to be able to squeeze it out like when you shit, it's in the wrong place for that. You're in for an anxious fishing trip or wait, or a very embarrassing er trip. And this movement isn't something that happens by accident, your rectum actively moves stuff back up if it's not expelled.
Second, material safety. In the US, it's perfectly legal to sell toys that aren't body safe. I don't recommend plastic for anal use at all. Silicone is safe, but it has to be platinum cure or medical grade. These use platinum as part of the silicone curing process and is incredibly resistant to breaking down, which tin cure silicone will do. So, even a silicone egg with a tether might not be safe for butt use.
Ultimately, I honestly don't think vibrating butt toys are all that great. I highly recommend getting a "big" (large as you can fit) squishy plug like a square peg egg plug or a topped toys gape keeper and doing kegel exercises with it in. That's been far better for prostate stimulation in my experience.
Thank you for your service!
