Couples should wear face masks during sex, new study insists
NY Post ^

Safe sex during the coronavirus pandemic might soon require protection beyond just the nether regions.

A new study from Harvard University says that hooking up carries some risk for transmitting COVID-19 from one partner to the other and recommends wearing a face mask.

The research ranked frisky situations based on how likely it is to catch coronavirus while in the act. Researchers recommend wearing a mask for the riskiest sexual scenario: Sex with people other than those with whom one is quarantined.

...you should avoid kissing, any oral-to-anal act and anything else that involves semen or urine. Shower before and after, and clean the space with alcohol wipes or soap.

Even if that person is ultimately an asymptomatic carrier, they can still infect the other.

Abstinence, they say, is “low risk for infection, though not feasible for many.” Another option, they add, is masturbation.

the Oregon Health Authority released a sex guide that went viral, just weeks after the same happened to one released by the NYC Department of Health. The Oregon example stood out for its illustrations of condoms, a fleshlight and a peach, and NYC’s with its vivid warning for anal rimming.

During my college years, we boys had this usual comment about girls who were not so pretty...she would be just fine with a hand towel on her face during.

“avoid anything that involves semen”

So much for happy endings.

If you wear 2 masks, then take 1 off, you can feel like a MADMAN

This really isn’t about “couples,” as in married couples or even cohabiting couples, because “couples,” such as my husband and me, are already in the same environment, infection-wise.

They’re really talking about strangers. “Strangers should wear face masks during sex.”

I wish more women knew what men really think of them. The women might, then, make smarter choices in life.

I don't even own a facemask nor do I intend to. So far I've only had one store (a drug store) were an employee was standing at the front door telling people they had to have a face mask to enter. I went out to make truck, got an old bandanna, put it over my face and walked in. Then promptly removed it. Hey they said I had to wear a face mask to enter, not that I had to wear it while shopping.

That is the extent of the research......from Harvard. Me and a handful of drinking buddies could have done the same thing at a bar.

Blowing major razzberries for even bringing up the concept.

COVID-19 Wuhan virus is NOT an STD. When people get that intimate, the potential exchange of bodily fluids is already a barrier that has been breached, and the use of masks, except as an aid to titillation, would border on the ludicrous.

There may be a generalized Pavlovian Effect to deal with.
Meaning, some people will begin to get stimulated at the very sight of anyone wearing one of those masks, in any situation.
Kind of the opposite of aversion therapy.

Masturbation is gravely sinful (CCC 2352, 2396) and so quite perilous for your eternal salvation, which is far more important than your earthly life. After all, we celebrate today Saint Charles Lwanga, who forfeited the latter to attain the former.

Would someone please do a vid called “Face Masked Sex”, with muffled moans, muffled yips, and muffled “yeph! yeph! yeph!”?

Lots of “Oomph! Oomph! Oomph!”’s and..... uh, how do you spell muffled “go, baby!”?

Because self-control is anathema to the Left.

The unexcerpted version of the article states otherwise:

The study also mentions that having sex with people who are together in quarantine is safer, but there is still a risk. For instance, if one partner goes outside to run an errand and is exposed to the virus, they can transmit it to the other.
