Okay. Hypothetical situation A: You have a member of your family (let's say a cousin) who really, truly, desperately wants in your pants. They've been trying to get you to date them for quite a number of years now. You really, truly, desperately do not want them in that way, even though they're okay when they're not trying to get into your pants

Restraining order?

[doyoulikecake]

In most cases, that could probably work. But then, if you like them other than this one little character flaw, wouldn't you want to be able to still hang out with them?

Or, for a different thought exercise: let's say the offending party has a very good lawyer who could probably get that restraining order revoked? Or at least has access to the right strings to pull.

UHM.

Chastity belt?

Like the kind that's in Princess Bride?

Actually that might hurt. A lot.

Get a STD? No, then you wouldn't be able to have anyone in your pants...

[doyoulikecake]

Now we're getting creative! :D

We'll say pain isn't something one needs to worry about, for the sake of letting one's creativity go, here. Now it's simply a measure of what they can or can't get off in a short amount of time. No pun intended. ;P

I'd think one wouldn't want an STD for the exact reason you detailed up there. Unless one was asexual, of course, and didn't particularly want to have sex in the first place. (Then you'd have to find an STD that didn't necessarily require you to have sex to catch it.)

I try my best! :)

Oh! Pun! I get it!!! I think. On The Princess Bride, there was a key that could unlock the belt.

But how the heck-noodles did she ever PEE?

There are STDs that you can get without having to have sex? Someone once told me you could get one by sitting on a toilet, but I thought they were just trying to fool me.

How come whenever we talk on these things... it always leads back to sex?

[doyoulikecake]

What I'd be worried about is whether this person could pick that lock. Or if they'd just redouble their efforts into getting me to take said belt off them.

(Chastity belts generally had some hole to pee through; however, they were...not sanitary in the least. To answer your question.)

Certain STDs can be transmitted in a number of ways, yes. Though I'm with you in questioning why our conversations wind up somehow sexual in nature -- though I suppose the initial situation helped it along this time.

So let's add something else into the mix: anything solutions that aren't sexual in nature? :)

[pplrunincircles]

Maybe it could be a special lock? Like with a random number? If they're really persistent, I guess they could try for hours.

(........................................................ D: )

I am going to be very careful around toilets from now on. I don't know WHY the first one did. Well, it started out partially about Josef so.............

Uh. Make yourself unattractive to them? Somehow? They must have something that they would be all EW about.

[doyoulikecake]

But then you'd have a few hours' respite, at least!

(Yeah, it's best not to think about the hygiene of the middle ages, kiddo.)

A few points for making oneself unattractive, though I'm very amused by the idea of finding someone's squick when said someone has no problems with incest. Not that I'm saying people like that don't have them, just that in general, people don't initially think that someone who has no problem with their taboos could have taboos of their own. So, still marginally thinking outside the box, here! But I know you can do better than that.

For instance: what sort of things could one do to make oneself unattractive to someone without socially compromising themselves? (Bear in mind that this situation's hypothetical and ignore my cousin up there and that it can literally be anything, here. I'm not looking for solutions to a specific problem, no matter what anyone might think when they hear the words 'hypothetical'.)

[pplrunincircles]

It's very true!

(I will keep that in mind. :/)

There has to be something, cause like you said... I mean, I'm very comfortable talking about death and being around it, but I know other people are not comfortable at all with it. It depends on the person!

The way that you treat that person? Personalities can be unattractive. This is really hard for me, because I've only ever been attracted to one person. Uhm. (Oh, I wasn't thinking that it was a real problem, but that is a really, oddly specific situation, you know.)

[doyoulikecake]

Exactly! Now we're talking. Not that we weren't before, or anything. ;P (Sometime I'd actually be interested in hearing your thoughts on death, but that is, I suspect, a conversation for another time.)

Personality is good. :) How would you treat someone you didn't want hanging around you? You, personally, I mean. Making the problem a little more personal, here.

(I'll admit, it's a situation I've run into, though I was posing this just to see what reactions I'd get. See what solutions people came up with. I highly doubt there'd be anything suggested that would actually be effective against Molly.)

[pplrunincircles]

Right! ;) Sure! I'm always willing to talk about death. But it's probably best another time.

I dunno! I've never met anyone that I didn't want hanging around me. Well, I can think of a couple people, but i would just run when I saw them and spray them in the eyes with pepper spray.

(Oh! Well! I am sorry for your situation, and I hope that it gets better somehow. Miracles happen!)
