Concerning frozen spunk and STDs

[nand]

Hey pervs,

N and I were talking about the possibility of having someone from the forums overnight us some frozen spunk. But when we were evaluating the potential risks we got stuck on the STD factor.

Does anyone know how freezing and thawing out cum would affect STD transmission? I know that different STDs will behave differently, but I was hoping there might be a biologist in the audience that could help set our minds at ease.

Peace,
D

I am clean if you want to use mine.

While we definitely appreciate the offer, that's not quite the level of assurance we're looking for mate.

Freezing will preserve viruses and bacteria. They will loose some of their virulence but will still be a risk.

wow you really are an open minded couple whats the plans for it if it goes ahead?

First off mailing frozen samples is nearly impossible through any mail service that does not specialize in biohazard transportation. Second, freezing does surprisingly little damage to bacteria and almost nothing to viral organisms. In fact ice core samples from deep in glaciers from Antarctica have resulted in healthy bacteria and viruses tens of thousands of years old. So STD's would remain a real risk.

Me and Tonya have also considered this. I would suggest getting to know the person who is sending it to you. They could take an STD test, and this would be about the only way to grant any assurance. Of course there would always be the chance that the person could do something to it that could potentially make it unsafe, but thats where getting to know the person would come in.

Sending wouldn't be a big deal as you might think as long as the person was in the states. You would need to pack it in dry ice and have it overnighted. You could put it in any container that has temperature maintaining properties. (i.e.)Thermos, small cooler. Hell Omaha Steaks sends people frozen steaks through the mail, so it shouldn't be a problem keeping it frozen.

As far as the biohazard thing goes. Of course, you wouldn't let the parcel service know you were sending bodily fluids, and as long as it was overnighted, and didn't thaw out Im sure it wouldn't be inspected. But no matter what theres always a risk, but no more of a risk involved than a porn star takes working, or a couple takes swinging.

So with that being said I wish you best of luck in finding a jar full of cum, as me and Tonya are currently trying to find. We actually have one person we fully trust that lives pretty close to us saving up, and several more who says they are. Hope yall find some and get pic and videos!

You'll need the correct documentation. Look at the FedEx site that covers shipping perishable products.

As described above, use dry ice (CO2) and sealed container that has a spill proof feature. You might be able to get these from a container store.

The documentation is the most important thing. If your shipper notices a package with smoke coming out of it, and it doesn't have a dry ice label on it, you can expect to hear from the feds. Seriously, when it happened to a friend of mine, I couldn't believe it.

Sounds like a lot of expense and trouble.

Sorry

You might wanna try a sperm bank. It may be a bit embarrassing to approach them, but I am sure they have loads of samples that cannot be used due to a variety of reasons (yet are 100% STD free).

Your post reminded me of an infamous girl in Amsterdam that was famed for collecting the used full condoms from all the working girls in De Wallen (The redlight district). As sexy as it was to watch her covered in all that goo, I never played with her fearing STDs (although in The Netherlands prostitutes get STD checked every two weeks in order to keep their license).

I'm a biologist but notthe kind that knows too much about this stuff. Still, I can tell you hat freezing temperatures won't kill off anything. Heat is a garauntee but I'm not sure how good it would be afterwards. Some viruses might breakdown out of the body but if the semen is still viable I would bet any viruses are too.
