It's back on the market! Elaine from Seinfeld can finally stop hoarding.

However, someone answer me this cause it seems to me a very ICKY form of birth control:

- As a male or female, can you feel it while humping?!?

- If yes, did the peen ever hook on the loop you are supposed to use to pull it out? Did it get stuck?

- Why the hell would anyone use this as birth-control (and it's been backordered since 2001 when it was announced it would eventually be back on the market). There's only about a 91% effective rate on pregnancy prevention and it seems messy as hell.

some women can't take birth control pills for various medical reasons (allergies, side effects, fertility issues etc.).

IUD's are really the only other solution other than relying on the notion that your man is responsible enough to have a condom with him (lol lol lol), or if you simply don't like condoms.

I think they are gross too. I am not a fan of inserting anything up there that isn't going to gratify me. =) Fortunately I don't have any problems with the pill. precious, precious pill...

I get the Depo shot. Personally I never considered IUD's as a form of control due to the percentage rate of pregnancy. I'll take my .01% chance instead of a 9% chance.

Yes.

No, but I never got to test it vigorously.

Hormonal birth controls are hard on some women. I know a lot who've tried Depo, but had to quit because they put on like 20 lbs; they got off it and the weight really just dropped. Another went on the pill and lost her sex drive. Smokers and others are discouraged from them, too.

This is where we seperate the mangina from the women.

"For people who are very concerned about getting pregnant, it's probably not a good option, because it has a high failure rate,"
why else would a woman use it then? I'm missing something here

is it useful only to those poeple who think "I don't wanna get pregnant but if I do, no big deal" ?

*Edit - condoms, diaphrams, etc are all much better options, this one doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

You mean a girl wants a kid with a guy who might not want it? Then she doesn't need to use anything. Just say she's on the pill and oops, apparently it didn't work if she gets pregnant.

My head hurts :?

the chances of not getting pregnant with this is like 91% or so, but the statistic probably goes way up when you use other natural methods like the rythym method and/or pulling out before the big moment.

I don't them myself but I doubt that you really want a guy to shoot his load in you when you are wearing a sponge anyway. Eventually you are going to have to take that fucker out.

condoms by themselves aren't much more reliable birth control. I think they are only about 90% effective by themselves.

I think what appealed about the sponge was the fact that you didn't have to go to a doctor. Even in college, having to talk w/ a family MD about sex can be intimidating. Both the girls from my sample weren't humping around a lot and were pretty conscientious about safe sex. They knew how to properly deploy a condom, so I guess the sponge was just a backup.

Well regardless of feeling uncomforable, females mature enough to be having sex should be mature enough to visit there local gynocologist and get their yearly wonderfully exciting pap tests!

Fishing out a 24-hour worn spunk filled sponge sounds a lot more uncomfortable to me than discussing birth control with a medical professional.

What magic happy land full of well-adjusted females are you from? Here in America, there are still girls finding out that sex causes babies only when they become pregnant.

You missed the key word "should be" mature enough. SHOULD BE, but aren't, and it's unfortunate.

There are other methods such as Norplant and diapghrams. I have heard Fairweather mention another birth control method on here a few times....something called "anal". Not sure how effective that is. :twisted:

Sheepskin condoms and caution always has been a good combo for me.

Sheepskin contains your swimmers, but don't keep you safe from cooties!

100% effective so far!

I guess it may actually be possible under the right, freakish circumstances. I've heard stories of a woman in Brazil that got pregant by having anal sex. Apparently she fell asleep on her stomach after the sweet, sweet, butt-love session, and the sperm ran out of her ass and into her cooter. It sounds like complete BS, but I remeber reading it on a medical site or somewhere else that was very reputable. That's the only reason it sticks out in my mind to this day.

Anyway, if you read the statistics about the life cycle of sperm and the trials and tribulations they face in thier search to create life, you'd wonder how anyone ever gets pregnant. Seems the odds are pretty much stacked against our boys.

On topic: The sponge topic never came up in any of my relationships. I wouldn't be openly oppossed to it, although I'd probably rather have any other method of sex to avoid it. Stopping in the middle of sex for a little nibble on the spam drapes is a rather common occurance, and sponge dosen't sound too tasty IMO.

the sponge doesn't really stop sperm. It justs acts like a trampoline and gives the sperm something else to do. They are distracted easily.

although I don't recommend it for anyone, there is but one true method to be 100% sure.

yeah, my life sucks like that.

Kilmoll,
Norplant isn't used by most OB/GYN's anymore. I looked into after I had my daughter 3 months ago. From what my doc told me it runs a HUGE risk of infection in the injection site and most woman that have had it don't highly recommend it due to the hormornal changes.

I think atokal's mom would disagree on that statistic.

Well, I imagine putting it up there would cause some spermicide or whatever to get on the crotch. Then, after a good poking, it seems as though it would mix up OMGIAMRETARDEDCAUSEALOTISTWOWORDS of those cheicals in the process. I'm obvioulsy ignorant in reguards to how the actual ins and outs so I'm basing OMGIAMRETARDEDCAUSEALOTISTWOWORDS of this on assumption and common sense.

Am I wrong? Would you not taste anything off the sponge? Does it disrupt the vagina smell?

Educate me. I am honestly curious.

Flaming Kyoukan is generally like pissing into the wind.
It may feel good doing it, but all in all you are only gonna end up getting Pissed On rather than Pissing her oFf.

The woman has a tongue like a whip that will lash out and burn you.

When midgets have an abortion do they use paper clips instead of clothes hangers?

If I were cognizant in my prenatal state of who my mommy was I would accept the abortion and count myself lucky.

when you can throw enough neurons together to flame Kyoukan, you'll get it in writing. until then keep trolling Corps flames.

Obviously I am correct in my assessment or you would not feel the need to jump into the fray. Didn't know you had such a soft spot for midgets.

Be good Voro :wink:
