Ah, so the real issue is that MEN offer the advice, and it is okay? <sarcasm>
I re-read my first post, and fail to see the attitude. I am a heavy edge player, and there is no way in HELL that I would give step by step directions for anything here on the net. I am a very responsible person who has never had a serious "whoops" ever. How are any of you to know that? How is any stranger to know that?
I stand beside my original words--RESEARCH, talk to LIVE people and have them teach you. None of this is top secret stuff.
(emphasis mine)
Hold it. He didn't ask for that. Go re-read the original post. He just said that he's been doing it, wants to know who else has done it to this degree, and wants to know what he should be aware of. He has done it, presumably they know how to do it, they just don't necessarily know what's safe.
Stand beside your original words? "RESEARCH"? That's what he was doing! How is the opinion of strangers that he's chatting with on the internet any more or less valid that strangers he's met in real life at a club? They're still strangers.
Hell, how is it more valid than a book? If you're a heavy edge player and responsible and have never had a serious whoops, then you sound like the sort of person he's hoping to hear from to get some more information about stuff he should look for. Besides, in all seriousness how do we necessarily know for a fact which books are good and which aren't? I don't see a list of fact checkers and medical references in the books that I have, so how do I know that it wasn't just some crackpot yahoo who wrote down all the worst advice around and the book is going to end up killing me?
There's one and only one way that I can think of to find out if a book is any good or not...ask people on the 'net and in person. Ask a lot of them everywhere. If they tend to be in agreement on something, the crowd has a good chance of being right. The crowd's also probably going to band together pretty quick if something's bad and tell everyone else about it, but he's not going to know unless he asks.
Pointing him towards books and whatnot is fine and useful and I'm not knocking it, but if you've got so much experience on these matters, then share it with him. He never asked for instructions (AFAIK, maybe it was later on when the tone got snippy and buried in flames), but asked for things to look for.
Look at it this way - you're so concerned about him researching things, give him topics to research. "Oh, you should look out for such and such." "If your dick turns blue that's probably (insert scary disease) and very bad." Then he can go out and further research (insert scary disease) at a later point. As is now you're just telling him to go ask the exact same questions elsewhere.
And you're right, none of this stuff is top secret, so I fail to see why anyone would be unwilling to share.
Conversely, nobody owes the OP a blessed thing. If he wasn't happy with the type of advice offered, that's unfortunate. Being rude about it is boorish.

Anyway, if you didn't give masonmale this information, he could seriously cause harm to his precious cock, in which case, it would not nearly be so fun to tell him to go fuck himself!
