| How is Having Unprotected Sex NOT Trying to Get Pregnant?
Posted: 11/10/2009 8:33:42 PM | You know, I always resisted the idea that men and women have different ways of thinking, but the more I hang out on this site, the less I resist.
If you tell a man, "if you drop a bowling ball on your foot, it will hurt," the man will probably think "then I'd better not drop one on my foot."
If you tell it to a woman, she'll think, "Hah! What about MEN who drop bowling balls on their feet? Why aren't you going after them? Besides, men invented bowling balls. And they have all these secret club men's nights out bowling. They probably get together and brag about how many bowling balls they've dropped on the feet of innocent women. We're the victims here! You men are just whiny. Missiles, atomic bombs, penises, bowling balls. You men are all the same. Now, I'm going to the Take Back the Lanes march, where we'll do something important, like light candles and chant slogans." | |

Posted: 11/10/2009 11:10:13 PM | It is such a funny thing...I have friends that are married...they tried for months to get prego....months! Unprotected sex and they couldn't do it.
It seems like when you don't want it to happen...it happens. When you want it to happen...it won't happen.
I read this interesting study from the 90's...they were originally doing AIDS research. An unrelated outcome of their study was there was no sperm in precum...however they said much more research needed to be done to substantiate this.
Just imagine...for a minute...that this was completely true! That would be interesting. | |

Posted: 11/10/2009 11:33:45 PM | | Some people VERY mistakingly think that if the guy "pulls out" that they will not risk getting pregnant. I myself know quite a few people that relied on that method and wound up with children nine months later. I know yall have heard the joke about that one. What do you call couples who use the withdrawal method? Parents. I mean, even using contraception isn't 100%. Theres a slight risk that you could get pregnant every time you have sex, even if those chances are slim (using birth control pills and whatnot.) I wish people would get all this through their heads and there would be less unwanted and neglected children out there! | |

How is Having Unprotected Sex NOT Trying to Get Pregnant?
My g/f and I are NOT trying to get pregnant, but we wouldn't be desperate if she became pregnant. Neither one of us has a lot of money, but we love each other and both want children at some point in the future. Neglected children?? You don't need a lot of money to raise a child. The perfect combination is a loving couple who wants children and will do anything to help their children and make the relationship work. With this combination the couple and resulting family is always adaptable.
Fully aware of the consequences, ready to deal with consequences, we choose to have unprotected sex because it is very natural, and it ensures both of us are having sex for the right reasons - love, togetherness etc.
May sound a little sappy for some. Others who have been burned will think I am crazy. Oh well.... | |

The film is called "Idiocracy" and it's available on DVD. (Full Disclosure: this poster has no relationship, financial or otherwise, with Mike Judge.)
If you just accept a few basic premises, you can see where we are headed.
1. Basic intelligence is substantially heritable. There is a lot of variation, nutrition and environment can also have huge effects, but there's a genetic component. Breed two dumb people, get dumb children. Breed two smart people, get smart children. Breed a dumb person and a smart person, get (fill in punchline of your choice here).
2. Proper use of contraception requires (1) an appreciation of consequences and a capacity for taking practical action in the present to plan for the future, (2) a willingness to take that action, (3) somewhat more basic intelligence than tying one's shoes, so as to figure out how to use the contraception (Grover says roll the sock onto the banana, kids).
3. People who lack 2(1), 2(2) or 2(3) will have more children than those who have all of those three qualities.
Yes people, the soap opera of the future will be the Young & the Reckless.
Don't bother paying up your RRSPs and 401K's. In the future, math will be "hard", and while the National Deficit will more accurately refer to grey matter, it will be better known as a ska-core band. | |
