Does anyone ever do any kind of research before answering questions on here or are you just guessing?

Question

YES. Girls/women CAN get pregnant even if the penis does not go inside the vagina. Please read up before answering if you do not know for sure. You are playing with people's lives by giving incorrect information.

It is just that I used to be a moderator on another website simular to Yahoo answers and have done tons of research and I can't believe some of the answers I see on here.

Gypsy. If you cannot be helpful to someone that does not know, then don't bother to try to answer.

Answer 1

I never answer something until i'm sure. If i'm not sure about something, I don't give "facts", I just give simple advice and opinions.

People who say you can't impregnate someone if there's no vaginal penetration involved are stupid, and ignorant.

People can have anal sex and the sperm can leak and go into the vagina.

People can fool around and ONLY have foreplay; the man can masturbate and ejaculate, and then finger the girl with his sperm stained hands.

There are also many other ways to impregnate a woman with no intercourse involved.

Answer 2

I'm with previous answers, I only answer question I know, either by experience, first or second-hand information.

That's why when I ask a question, an answer with a source is always the one I choose as best.

In the Parenting Category, if no source, I'd look at the name, some moms have pretty obvious mommy names.

Yahoo answers isn't exactly scientific, I don't know what that average user thinks of it, whether it's a past-time or a serious research tool. (Most times it's a christian-anit-christian debate) It's just another forum any person can come on and ask/answer/comment/play tricks...

That's not much of an answer, but I share your frustration some days

Answer 3

In some cases the research was done in school or by personal experience. I am sure some are just guessing; I do not usually guess unless it is a question about faster than light travel.

Answer 4

I won't answer the question unless I know the answer or have a relevant experience, and I try to keep it all informative.. not judgmental... but your right.. half the information on here is completely wrong, rude, or ridiculous

Answer 5

Well I don't answer questions unless I know what I'm saying, however this is not counseling or a professional service. If people want Medical or professional advice see a doctor or whatever expert can answer your question.

Answer 6

I often do a little research before I answer. It helps me learn things and help someone else at the same time.

Answer 7

Hmmmm...if people are seriously going to take the advise of a bunch of strangers, goofballs and maniacs and not do their own research then they deserve to have their lives messed with.

We all obviously have a computer to answer and ask these questions, then we all have the same opportunity to do our own research.

Answer 8

Thank-you Ryan's mom. That needed to be said! Needless to say, I share your viewpoint. They say that a word to the wise is sufficient. However,.. wisdom, (I'm not even going to get into I.Q.level here) seems sadly lacking out here,...so I rather doubt that many, or enough, will pay heed. > But once again!
THANK-YOU....put a *STAR* by your name for that one.

Answer 9

Answer 10
