    Lol. Chances for accidentally short circuit something with stray fluid are much much higher than creating a new human this way.

    I don’t think there will be any problem if you do it with just one hand instead of two, since you’ll need the other hand to hold onto something. Although they have all sorts of straps there, so the problem is completely made up.

    I’m not sure nofap is the only viable strategy. What about requiring vasectomy or unisex birth control?

    Btw, porn in space is an unfapped market niche.

      requiring vasectomy

      Yeah definitely man. I mean if you wanna go to space why don’t we jump to required castration while we’re at it?

        The chances of a solar particle hitting your RAM and causing a bit to flip are tremendously unlikely as well, but there’s hardware made to prevent that from happening (I realize ECC does more than that).

        All of the greatest inventions which revolutionized key aspects of our daily lives have begun in aerospace engineering.

        Pens that write upside down. Ice cream that doesn’t melt. Cock socks that don’t leak and are easy to clean.

        This is why we fund NASA!

      We already have drugs that stop women from getting pregnant from direct nuts, let alone stray ones. I’m not saying that female astronauts should go on birth control to let the boys blast rope, but this cannot be the actual reason.

    NASA scientists says-

    Shouldn’t it be “NASA scientist says-” or “NASA scientists say-”

    I’m dyslexic and not native English speaker so I’m not sure. But it sounds weird when I say it in my head.

    Than about the other thing: the subject. Doctors say it’s necessary to ejaculated at least once a week to lower the chance of prostate cancer. Also, not doing anything about being horny is fucked up. I’m wearing a catheter for 4 weeks (one and half weeks to go) and it sucks so bad. Every woman I see makes me horny now, whenever I see something sexy like a bikini in a commercial or 2 people kissing during a show, I get a woodie, which hurts because I had surgery on my eurethra. Every night, the entire night, I have a woodie. I know, because the pain it causes keeps me awake. The longer the horniness is cropped up, the worse it gets. I know astronauts didn’t have surgery down there, but not jurking off makes many men bombs of cropped up horniness. It can also affect concentration and performance of tasks. Men need their relief. As do women.

    So, NASA scientists, why don’t you invent a seed killing, particle capturing jerkoff sock for astronauts. It sounds stupid but it’s oh so important.

    Edit: about the Grammer, I was right.

    Also, what a slop website.
