Sounds like there should be a high demand for safe sex toys for men's asses based on those stats. ..... How to normalize ass toys to a homophobic population is all that stands in the way of big ass profits.

[-] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 49 points 3 days ago

Sex toy companies just have a hard time to achieve full market penetration with the cishet male demographic. I bet there is a big gaping hole in the market data concerning male sex toy use since men probably lie about that. The sex toy companies just need to find a way to stimulate more interest in toys and stop these men from dicking around with household items. They should just go balls to the wall with their marketing campaigns. But also society needs to stop giving men who like it up where the sun don’t shine the shaft.

“Dude wipes” is already feeling out the market

A lot of men have such fragile egos that things like this exist. Most men won't sit to pee either. Most likely because they've never actually cleaned the bathroom.

Back scratchers for the itches inside!

[-] expatriado@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

prostrate stimulators

[-] salvaria 78 points 3 days ago

Sent to a nurse to ask if that seems real. Apparently, it checks out.

GENTLEMEN, PLEASE for your own sake, please be safe and use something built for that purpose or at least something with a flare that you can't lose up there.

[-] expatriado@lemmy.world 21 points 3 days ago

i hope they listen instead of having their head up their asses

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 3 points 3 days ago

In fairness you were quite muffled

While funny, this is not true.

"Chest radiography remains the most commonly performed radiological exam in the world with industrialized countries reporting an average 238 erect-view chest X-ray images acquired per 1000 of population annually".

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1361841521001717

Depending on the country, there's a chance of dental x-rays being even more frequent, but this varies greatly.

Edit: Sorry I didn't directly address the "1/3 of exams". Even adding abdominal, hip, and pelvic x-rays, it's still short of 10% of total. Source.

[-] bjorney@lemmy.ca 47 points 3 days ago

I would assume the radiographer working in the ER sees a lot more foreign-body-up-the-butt cases than the one working in a cardiologists office.

Also I've never had a specialist take my dental X-rays, it's always the hygienist or dentist

[-] ByteJunk@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

The ER chest x-rays are usually for breathing problems, not so much the heart.

Trouble breathing, cough and fever are your ER bread and butter.

Limbs and joints are #2 (accidents).

[-] FoxyFerengi@startrek.website 1 points 3 days ago

I've had chest xrays after presenting with possible heart issues that were ruled out with labs and ekg. So that tracks, i think

[-] Whats_your_reasoning@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I figured the “1/3” number to be hyperbole. The message isn’t that they took hard data and literally mean “1 in 3,” but rather that, “Male patients with items lost up their rectum is much more common than expected.”

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 2 points 3 days ago

I have to assume that if you work in a hospital you're not doing an awful lot of dental x-rays. Dentists do those.

[-] ProgrammingSocks@pawb.social 33 points 3 days ago

FLARED. BASE. It's not a joke.

do flare fittings work?

[-] sxan@midwest.social 17 points 3 days ago

I... a third‽ I think I've had maybe 4 things foreign objects in there my entire life; twice were medical exams, and the other two confirmed that that activity is not my bag. But, 30%? Wow.

I never realized I was so sheltered.

[-] workerONE@lemmy.world 19 points 3 days ago

Are you a radiologist or are you just someone who doesn't stick things up their ass?

[-] sxan@midwest.social 7 points 3 days ago

I can see how my comment would be ambiguous.

The latter.

[-] user_name@lemmy.world 18 points 3 days ago

I have a urologist friend who says a huge portion of his job is taking things out of people’s dickholes.

[-] TachyonTele@piefed.social 10 points 3 days ago

Nooo I really did not want to know that

[-] Anomalocaris@lemm.ee 6 points 3 days ago

why is an Xray needed.

I'm assuming the patient knows what's in there already

[-] Endymion_Mallorn@kbin.melroy.org 25 points 3 days ago

So that the doctors can point and laugh.

[-] Steamymoomilk@sh.itjust.works 10 points 3 days ago

A photograph for memorys sake!

[-] Anomalocaris@lemm.ee 4 points 3 days ago

the funniest part is the 5000$ copay to make doctors laugh at you

[-] davidagain@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

You have my deepest sympathy.

[-] piefood@feddit.online 6 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

You would be surprised how many people "don't know why they feel bad", and "don't know how that got in there". People will go through a lot to avoid admitting that they like things in the poop-chute

[-] Dojan@pawb.social 4 points 3 days ago

Well, there may be ladybirds in there.

[-] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

A third? Those are amateur numbers. C'mon guys, man up and get in there!

[-] wise_pancake@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

That feels high, but I don’t know because I’ve never had a routine appointment with the radiographer, so it’s hard to compare how often that happens.
