 Is Anal Sex Dangerous?

Anal sex is very dangerous.  What people don’t know is that the anus is an exit for waste.  When a men penis is inserted into another person anus it is more dangerous than vaginal intercourse.  This is because the lining of the anus is easily damaged from the friction and anal sex, where as in vaginal intercourse, the lining of the vagina protects from pathogens entering the bloodstream.  Now that does not mean that one should not practice safe sex.  Virus can still pass through our blood stream through vaginal sex, if there is damage in the vagina lining. 

Once the anus is damage of friction from the men penis leaving tear and abrasion in the anal area, this is a breeding ground for fungus and viruses to enter the blood stream.  I would say to any woman that is thinking about having anal sex to refrain from it.  Make your partner respect your body, it's the only temple that you have.  More Info.

Nail Salon Nightmare

 

Believe it or not, American women spend more than $5 billion a year on their fingernails.

And when we get a manicure or pedicure, we expect safe, clean service.

But for some women -- what should be a luxurious experience can turn into a nail nightmare -- resulting in disease, pain, injury -- even permanent loss of their nails.

Rochelle Thomas treats herself to regular manicures at the salon where she works.

But when she didn’t have much money, Rochelle went to a discount nail shop in a strip mall near her home.

She got acrylic nails and was surprised when the technician used a drill to shape them.

Rochelle says, "My hands would throb and my cuticles would be bleeding. They started to become weaker and thinner and break more frequently."

She can't prove it, but she suspects the shop created her nails with a chemical liquid that's actually been banned.

It's called Methyl methacrylate (MMA).

It is an industrial chemical that is no longer to be used as a nail liquid because it has been known to cause allergic reactions.

MMA is an industrial chemical used to make plastics.

It was also once used to create acrylic fingernails.

But in 1974, the FDA ordered nail salons to stop using MMA liquid after customers reported serious allergic reactions.

After the FDA ruling, most salons switched from MMA to other, more expensive liquids to do acrylic nails.

But in recent years, with the explosion in the number of discount nail salons, many experts suspect that cheaper MMA liquid is being used once again.

Most women apparently aren't aware of the dangers -- and the price is right: averaging $25 for a full set of acrylic nails, versus as much as $60 dollars at a salon.

"It doesn't cost a lot of money. It doesn't take a lot of time and you don't have to make an appointment," says nail technician Cathy Williams.

Cathy says not only can MMA liquid cause painful allergic reactions, it creates nails so hard they're impossible to remove...and bumping or catching the nail can rip off your entire natural nail.

Fungus can grow under the nail -- especially if the technician uses dirty instruments and drills.

Cathy says, "They actually pierced the nail bed on all 10 nails. She ended up getting fungus under each one of them and was left without nails for a year, "

Meanwhile, Rochelle Thomas says her days of getting the cheapest nails possible are over.

She says, "It is more expensive, but in the long run if you don't plan on having tips on all the time... it's better in the long run for your nails and your health."

No matter what type of nail shop you go to -- there are ways to protect yourself:

·  First and foremost: make sure your nail technician and your shop are licensed by the state.

·  Avoid shops where they use harsh techniques like a drill to shape new acrylic nails -- or clippers to remove old ones.

·  Verify that the instruments they're using have been properly cleaned -- either in a heat sterilizer -- or in a bath of disinfectant for at least 10 minutes. And if you're not sure, bring your own.

You may wonder if there's a way to know for sure if your technician is using MMA -- and the answer is -- maybe.

MMA has a very strong, sweet odor -- but it can be mistaken for other, legitimate nail products that also have a strong odor.

MMA nails are likely to cost less because the liquid itself costs less.

But some discount salons say they offer cheaper prices because they have less overhead -- not because they're using MMA.

But, if your nails won't soak off, it probably is MMA, since other acrylic nails should come off after a half-hour soaking in a solvent.
