I wonder how my life would have changed if i had access to the internet at age 9

[–] BakerBagel@midwest.social 33 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Boys start playing with their weiners as soon as their hands can start grasping stuff. It's instinctual.

[–] iheartneopets@lemm.ee 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's instinctual in that all babies explore their genitals as soon as they can start willfully moving their hands, yes. It's not just boys having a special connection to their genitalia.

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah, but we make it our personality!

Nawww you miss your opportunity to call someone a dumbass and get away with it... dumbass.

I don't have a penis, but I for one was a total idiot at age 9.

[–] absentbird@lemm.ee 16 points 2 days ago

Not having a penis: the perfect counter to the fidgit spinner trap

[–] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

I was jerking off around that age, hadn't ever seen any porn or anything, no need to call child protection, it was just natural for me

[–] UltraMasculine@sopuli.xyz 39 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I'm much older than 9 and stuff gets stuck on my penis all the time.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 14 points 2 days ago

Check out Mr. Popular over here with his social life.

My wife texted me the other day:

You know that yellow slide our son carries around? Well, he started sticking his penis in it, you have to talk to him now.

He's 4. It's just what boys do.

[–] GoodLuckToFriends@lemmy.today 14 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Yeah, children play with their genitals far more than I ever wanted to believe. I don't really remember doing it as a kid, but it wouldn't surprise me if most parents, including mine, have stories about the odd things that happen.

[–] iheartneopets@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Not just boys. Girls explore and test boundaries with their genitals too.

[–] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Have a daughter also, so I know it all too well! Our focus is "It's normal but private." We will see how that goes.

[–] iheartneopets@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

That's gonna be our approach, too with our kiddo.

It's a hard one to fight your own overly-conservative programming in order to teach a healthier outlook to your kids. Hard to know if you're going too far one way or the other. So much of parenting you just don't know if you're doing it right until you're done.

Fist-bump from one internet parent to another, you're doing a great job ✌️

Never used one of those, but showerheads and bath faucets certainly

[–] tomi000@lemmy.world 31 points 2 days ago (3 children)

I dont think 15yo penises fit into fidget spinners, but Im not an expert on child genitalia.

[–] ZeffSyde@lemmy.world 69 points 2 days ago

I'll ask my priest.

[–] dutchkimble@lemy.lol 2 points 1 day ago

You misunderstand. It’s a 9yo fidget spinner.

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 18 points 2 days ago

It really depends on both the size of the fidget spinner and the will of the child.

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 5 points 1 day ago

You gotta start somewhere.
