Are you being serious, or just, pardon the pun...screwing around? Just pulling out is, a lot of the time, NOT effective, and that thought that it is gets a lot of folks into trouble.

More on topic with the thread...the only time I've used 'em was when my wife got off the pill for a few months. I hated it, for sure, but couldn't really complain because

a) she took the pill for four years without complaining once (and rarely forgot to take it)
b) one kiddo is enough for me/us right now

Girlfriend is on the pill - Depends if we have one or not... sometimes we will use one, other times we like how it feels without... just depends...

No. I imagine if you're worried your wife may "forget", um, you may need to reevaluate the relationship altogether.

Oh, and what makes you think the information you got is better than ours!! I'm sticking with the pull-out method in the mean time!

Have to wonder if anyone advocating condoms for anything but casual sex with relative strangers has had sex without one (or at all for that matter). It's night and day, who the hell wants to nail a piece of rubber?

I'll have to take you to task on this one old buddy. Sex with a condom can never be as good as without, but some of the really thin ones are ok by me. Some are like screwing rubber though - they're just plain frickin thick imho.
And heck... hehe... if it provides me an extra minute or so due to less sensation... who's complaining? ;) < had to be said ehheh

Yes because nothing is 100% guaranteed to work as a contraceptive. But figure with the pill and a condom you're pretty damn assured it won't happen. But of course if you don't care if you get pregnant, then don't worry about it.

It's true. I know for my situation, if my wife were to become prego, she'd be in deep doodoo since she's just finishing her masters right now and planning on going to teacher's college after. No kids allowed yet! ;)

Hell, I'm not married, and I agree. I always stop using after I've been with them for a year or so. I did get burned a couple of times though.:eek:

LoL, that's why we had 3 children in 3 years. She's horrible at taking pills and I hate condoms. The happiest day of my sexual life was the first time we did it after I had my vasectomy. No pills, no rubbers, no worries. :heart:
