The blind leading the blind in there. to funny. I just don't understand how women can be so dumb

Questions like "I need $5000 yesterday and my credit is a wreck. Where can I get a loan fast with a credit score of 500?" Now that makes me crazy!

I'm with you. My mother took me to a planned parenthood class on health and sexuality when i was NINE. I've always known about this stuff.



When I see questions like that it makes me sad. There are SOOO many young people that know nothing about sex that are HAVING sex. I once heard of this girl thinking she could use coke.. as in SODA, as a dueche and she wouldn't get pregnant. She of course WAS pregnant at the time she told this bit of knowledge.



I think it's because the only thing they teach in schools now a days is "just say no." Abstenance only sex education was the worst idea in the world. Teenagers are horny, they aren't just going to say "no" to something that feels so good. They need to be taught about different forms of birth control, what works, and what really really DOESN'T. It's ridiculous.



Kids don't listen to their parents, and this is especially true when it comes to sex ed. For the few parents willing to try and teach the kids, the kids are so embarrassed their ears just turn off OR they think their parents are the stupidest people in the world and would NEVER know more than THEM about sex.



Communication has gone to the crapper and it sucks.



Sorry.. I kind of ranted off there.



Another thing that makes me shake my head is all these people on here saying "I just pierced my own tongue and now it hurts is it infected?" or something similar. They can't wait and get it done by a professional? Its so horribly dangerous to pierce yourself but NOOOOO they think they're invincible, then they get a freaking staph infection and have to go to the hospital, where they end up removing the piercing ANYWAY and they get a lovely scar somewhere on their body.



*sigh* I'm done now. I promise.

Yes, the "am I pregnant" questions or if they can get pregnant from a toilet seat or with all their clothes on or if it's ok to use a pregnancy test while you're on your period. But if you've been in the pregnancy section lately, it was difficult to find even THOSE questions which could be legit through all the ones about zombie and werewolf babies and why does my baby have thick hair and drink blood. Those ones make it hard to seek out the ones who really need advice.

The others that make me shake my head are the ones that are posted by those just trying to get their jollies. Either they are so off the wall or so very totally inappropriate.



I received my first violation today b/c of a response I had given the other day. Um... the violation should have been given to the original poster of the question, LOL, b/c her (?) previous questions were obviously that of a person who is just abusing the internet.

It came to my knowledge that there is a 47 year old man on here with a female avatar hanging around asking question in the women's health category and getting off reading women's talking about their periods. Now each time I read a stupid question I think it's a deviant weirdo behind the avatar.

True that...lol

Uneducated women scare me, also.



I am a doula & I would love to help all women.

But the thing is they want you to answer stuff only they & MAYBE their doctor would be able to tell. We don't really know the answers. The doctors don't know due dates accurately theirself. They are only going on what the woman tells them, for the most part.



I am in full agreement with you... but I don't want to bash the women who really are asking...& really have good intentions & are not just being dumb.

But, remember, there are no dumb questions... right?

Oh yeah, on Y!A, there are many exceptions.

Have a good day☺

You technically become a woman when you first get your monthly period. However, many get their period at such a young age, experiment with sex, get pregnant, & have no idea what happens next. Are mothers not talking to their daughters these days about growing up & what happens to the body? By some of the questions I read, it's babies having babies or so it seems. That's really sad!

What makes me shake my heads..



I agree with dumb pregnancy questions!! I freaking hate them! Why can't these idiots learn about what they're about to do before they go and have sex and get pregnant?



What also gets on my nerves is questions from young girls asking 'I want to go swimming but I'm on my period.. And I'm NOT gonna wear a tampon! How else can I swim'. I hate that!

Ive read a question or two where someone posted a question in a random spot but it seemed to be directed at "The internet," asking for pills. It's a head shaker.

i dont either, what does it matter the statistics you have. there are other ways to define if your prego. buying a test going to the doctor, missed periods, although i can see how some people would ask. i too ask dumb questions on this site. and someone always answers

Same thing TONS of these questions all I can say is TAKE A TEST till then theres nothing you can do and besides stress is bad for the baby
2007-07-09 02:36:11 UTC
I agree with you! The questions about periods are just as bad. These girls have no idea what their cycle is, or even what a period is. Geez! When I was their age, my mother talked to me about it and we also learned about it (girls only) back in grammar school. Who's teaching these kids anything these days?

I agree. People can be so dumb.

I hate the questions where little girls ask if their boobs are going to get bigger or when they are going to start their periods.

Don't you think they should talk to their mothers about this, instead of strangers on yahoo answers?

what annoys the hell out of me is when you have the 15 year old girls talking about how their weeks late but scared to tell mommy and daddy. DONT HAVE SEX IF YOU CANT TAKE CARE OF THE CONSEQUENCES.

They are not dumb just scared,answering those questions is very helpful,coz',we are living in the generation of electronics,fast-paced life that we need somebody to listen to us,Reaching out it is very beneficial for both parties,like us we need to be heard.

The kind that annoy me are the "Can i lose this much weight in two days?"

"Can I shrink my belly in 2 weeks?" etc.

I agree, some of them are rediculous, but some have to ask I guess.

All the questions about "how do I put in a tampon" annoy me.

I answer a lot of those questions. A lot of it are just really young scared girls who don't know where else to turn.
