Hmmm, if it can dissolve a tooth in under 24 hours, I don't really want it near my girly parts, and for sure not inside them. lmao I think this is kind of in the same boat as the douching with Lysol idea...primitive, scary and strange. xD

Also, in the very early versions of Coke (which is when I assume anyone would take the idea seriously) weren't trace amounts of cocaine among the ingredients? I wonder if that would come into play at all? less

In Carnivale, she used beer, not Coke. I don't remember what she asked for. Will have to see if I can't find that episode among my DVDs.

And either, I would think, would worsen a yeast infection, not cure it. Cause, I mean, beer is made with yeast, isn't it? And there's tons of sugar in Coke. Infection due to natural sugars is one of the reasons they tell you to put condoms on fruit and vegetables before insertion. less

I don’t know why this popped into my head today but, I was thinking about when I was in sex-ed in early high school. There was a bin on the teachers desk for anonymous questions. There was this one question that was something along the lines of… “Is it true that if a girl douches with a can of coca-cola after sex, she will not get pregnant?”

At the time I had never heard anything like that before. I am just assuming it was some kind of urban legend, and the teacher did tell everyone it was not true, and that no one should attempt this. Now here is the thing, most of the time those crazy urban legends come from somewhere, and usually have a somewhat logical explanation.

Another reference to this type of situation is in the HBO series Carnivale (which was so bad ass! If you have not seen it, you should go rent the series!) So the series is about a traveling carnival and the epic battle between good and evil. One of the traveling attractions in the carnival, is basically a strip club / mini brothel ‘tent’ that is run by a husband, his wife, and two daughters (and I think the one daughter is actually Meatloaf’s daughter).

In one episode the wife has some sort of a female infection or maybe an outbreak of something, I don’t think they really said what it was specifically. She just mentioned something to her husband about getting some coke, and he new exactly what that meant.

So anyway… Has anyone ever heard this, or things like this before? Does anyone have any idea where this comes from? less

This link will clear up all myths surrounding coke link

Douching with coke is sort of like shutting the barn door after the horse already got out, essentially. I suspect that whoever made this up was doing things with coke bottles that made them non refundable in nine states. less

Mythbusters did a whole episode on the myths surrounding Coke. It's mildly spermicidal, but would cause more damage than good. It would increase the risk of infection by throwing off a woman's vaginal pH and would disrupt the normal flora. Further, sperm can outrace the douche. It's not a good idea.
