Your thoughts & feelings about all kinds of Birth Control

From a dude’s perspective the shot is awesome. Unlike the pill you can’t forget to take it. Just take your girl to get it every 3 months.

Why bring a child into the world if you don’t know FOR SURE that it’s going to have a loving home.

One must also consider health care bills which tend to be around $10,000.

Women put their life at risk every time they give birth. Some women aren’t willing to risk their lives giving birth just to give it up for adoption.

EDIT: One must take precum into consideration when speaking in reference to pulling out.

I’m still shocked that it’s so common in many parts of the world, especially the US I suppose, for girls and women to take the pill. In Greece it’s pretty much unheard of. I can’t believe you can do that to your bodies like that!

Condoms is the only kind of birth control I know of but I don’t like them, they hurt. Still, I use them because there’s little choice and neither I nor the handful of girls I’ve had a sexual encounter with would like to take such a risk.

Obviously pulling out only works if the guy actually pulls out – and he knows his body well enough to do that.

So what it comes down to is relative experience, but whos to say the fathers life isnt more effected by the birth? If we go fully pro-choice, then the male has the choice to choose whether he wants to pay child support or not. Its all fair then, right? at least my relative reality says so

People should do it. We arn’t animals. We will have sex for recreation. We don’t need anymore babies, and we really don’t need more controversy over abortion.
Also teenager should be educated on the subject. In my high school during our sex-ed unit we were given very little information on the subject (only what the pill does),and not even given a source to get contraception. They told us to wait until we are married. ha.

check this out girls if you want a meathod which is non hormonal. you cant feel it when it is in, and it works. i used it for years and only had kids when i was 33, and believe me i gave this gadget its moneys worth.

i think the pharmacudical companys dont stress this simple non costly device, so they can sell the stupid dangerous pill, and ruin everyones health and thus sell more types of meds with tons of side effects, and then sell more pills to treat all the side effects of the side effects… makes so much sense! its good business..

@stonedragon How do you know the spermicide isn’t dangerous? Generally, all kinds of [blank]icide are poison to everything living, not just the organism it’s specialized to kill. And considering it’s all mucous membrane in there, that shit goes straight to the bloodstream.

I have no idea how safe or unsafe this substance is, but I seriously doubt that it’s harmless. Still probably the best method though, since it’s non hormonal and doesn’t interfere with the shagging.

Birth control: Make an informed decision.
No birth control: Abstain from intercourse unless trying to reproduce.
Unwanted pregnancy without termination: Responsibility for the child is shared unless negotiated otherwise.
Unwanted pregnancy with termination: The decision lies entirely with the woman. If a guy has a problem with abortion, then he better ask the woman how she feels about it before he sticks it in.

The trouble with sex is that reproduction is the main function but most people use it just for enjoyment. Which is totally cool. But seriously, as I’ve said before people need to chill out with having all these kids…..we’ve hit 7 billion people and having our whole lives consumed by endless resource wars would really gobble major balls. It’s too bad people can’t be so in control of themselves like the characters in the book Stranger in a Strange Land, where women could completely decide whether or not pregnancy would take effect.

It’s not really my place to say what with not being a girl and all but the pill or any other chemicals just seem like a bad idea, being from Big Pharma who as we all know doesn’t give a damn about the people using their product. Sticking with condoms is probably the best bet….AS LONG AS PEOPLE REMEMBER TO THROW THEM THE FUCK AWAY. Nothing grosses me out like seeing used condoms on the sidewalk, nobody wants to see that. If you’re old enough to have sex, you’re old enough to know what a garbage can is…aaargghh!…/end rant

The best form of birth control by far is a blow job.

Sex only has one purpose Manimal? Biologically, yes, but we are more than just animals. It helps us to bond; it feels good.

Men do have a say. They can use condoms or encourage the woman to use birth control. If men have done everything they can to prevent pregnancy, then, yes, they have a voice.
