People have a right to be rubes, people have a right to be ignorant, people have the right to be naive. We can do what we can to lead the people for the betterment of all but I dont think shaming them with ‘therapy’ does anything. We all need therapy. We all need support and guidance. There is nothing unique about these people putting their dick in the m&m minis tube.

I never implied that therapy is a shameful pursuit. And yeah, people have the right to do any legal activity in their private life, but—to take your m&ms analogy a step further—if you knew a guy was shoving a glass jar up his ass, don’t you think we should try to help him find safer ways of seeking pleasure, especially now that we’re armed with the knowledge that another guy posted his gruesome experience doing the same thing years ago?
My point is that if I was unknowingly on a slippery slope I would hope people would feel a sense of humanly duty to intervene. Or at the very least have a conversation about it.

Except you discount that you, personally, dont have the authority to do it. Then it just becomes some social stigma creating division.
