So, uh, is the spider hotter in person? Because the picture isn't doing it for me.

FWIW, even if it only caused a four hour long erection, that is not what your partner is going to want.

Trust me on this.

After an hour--usually less than half an hour, IME--it's not going to matter how much lube you have, they're going to be hurting. You'll be frustrated, they'll be frustrated and in pain, and no one is going to be happy. Maybe there are a very, very few women that like getting pounded for over an hour straight, but I haven't dated one yet.

I have. She loved going for marathon sex sessions.

Just not with me.

You don't want that spider bite: https://youtu.be/JN0VtHez9xI (12:35 SmarterEveryDay video)

Alternative wording is gives you an erection for the rest of your life.

Doesn't it lead to erectile dysfunction for several months after being bitten? I mean on top of the pain and non usable erection? I guess I don't want to try, thanks.

There have been deaths, but the bite is survivable. Still extremely unpleasant

[–] [email protected] 16 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

That's a kind of erectile dysfunction.

Depends on when rigor mortis sets in ...

Death usually lasts longer than a few months, though...

The erection won't do you much good as you try to avoid going into respiratory arrest:

Symptoms may appear within 10 to 20 minutes after the bite, and death within two to six hours, where severe pain radiates to the rest of the limb, systemic effects include tachycardia, increased blood pressure, vertigo, fever, sweating, visual disturbances, nausea, vomiting, difficulty breathing and paralysis.

The good news is you get a four hour erection.
The bad news is that you die within two hours.

Hey! Necrophiliacs need love, too!

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

... But... Also the erection, yes? 🤔

Does this applies to 70 yo? Otherwise I think we don’t have a deal. Asking for a friend.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 7 hours ago

and then you die.
