11. Well what more can sex give you other than
A great feeling, sustained pleasure, a feeling of oneness with your lover, something that moves your soul and body?

I mean besides all that? ;)

23. Wait just a sec
Edited on Fri May-07-04 03:47 PM by Book Lover
Birth control methods occasionally fail even for us intelligent folks who use it consistently and correctly.

on edit: removed rude remark - if you already read it, my apologies.

25. thats why one uses two methods
sorry but this is not a personal attack: it is just that i have never met an intelligent person who has gotten knocked up accidentally. 5 of my friends have. and none of them were in anyway really taking any kind of precaution not to.

26. Well, here's your first
So your solution is for me to be on the pill as well as something else? Sister, I have enjoyed reading your stuff, but I can't believe you are suggesting this as a way of life for sexually active hets.

31. And do *you*
practice what you preach? Oh, wait, that's right, you don't have to. When you start engaging in sex that risks pregnancy, I'll think more of your suggestion and less of your left-handed insult at my (and others') intelligence.

32. it wasnt really an overall insult
Edited on Fri May-07-04 04:41 PM by lionesspriyanka
more of a rant at people i know who got knocked up and really should have made more effort not to

when i used to have sex with boys i used condoms only (but keep in mind there is a very high chance that i am infertile to begin with: till i knew this info i used to be on the pill as well)

on edit: in scandinavian countries where sex ed is better their teenagers are APPALLED that we dont use 2 methods of BC

29. I got pregnant on the pill once.
I'm far from stupid. I just get pregnant easily. The times they were planned, I hit it the first month I tried. It doesn't take much for some of us.

I really don't know how to react to that statement. People come to the lounge to both brag AND complain... so it's difficult to tell which one fits your message.

In any case... I'm happy/sorry for you. I hope things continue/change for you.

37. Big Oops...
Even though you renamed and edited the thread, the original title still shows up (unchanged) in my "replies to me" listing. Looks like a programming bug.

17. about 6 or 7 years, I lost track
sort of a moral thing, but I think about breaking it every few minutes. I almost gave in several times then I tried to give in a few times and got shot down, haha. I don't think I'll beat that record though. I'll have a weak moment soon enough I'm sure.

22. Ouch! Been there!
Last divorce I went through, it was 2 years before I could even TALK to a woman without either turning to mush or going from 0-to-Bastard in less than 4 seconds... Therapy helped, a LOT.

27. Clarification
If you mean with another person ... yes, I've got your record beat. If you mean with a little help from my plastic friend ... that's something different altogether. ;-)
