I don't wanna go on birth control but I probably should.

I've never used that, but I'm on these and I love them!

If you're in Canada, and I'm in the States, what do you need birth control for?

I have come to the realization that I absolutely can not do a daily pill kinda thing.

I've never had to deal with the possibility of getting pregnant in the past...but after my son coming as a huge surprise, I am not willing to take the risk again.

I'm ignorant about all the options and honestly, many of them terrify me.

Let's cyber make out like true orgers.

Is that right?

Sorry, back to the thread.

Anyone?

Ok guys...help me out here.

Can I get some suggestions for other options?

Dayum.. the side effects alone would put me off!

Mars23 said:

Just come to Canada instead. This cyber stuff is already too much work.

Thanks in advance.

just cos your method works for you.....

Oh for fucks sake.

Can't there just be a pill that I take once with no side effects at all??

jaimestarr79 said:

Um, no.

That is not an option.

JustErin said:

eikonoklastes would suggest anal..

but seriously.. its always the womens worry and department.. it fucking sucks..

Are done having children ?

If so what about getting spayed ?

Mach said:

never an option..

Find a man who shoots blanks..

Mach said:

oh and we arent fucking dogs.. btw..

JustErin said:

I would just recommend riding your motorcycle more often. Maybe buy a bigger bike.

JustErin said:

some people get side effects, some don't at all- it also depends on the different types of pills. try asking your doctor for a low-dose hormone one, like yaz or tri-cyclen lo. they're just as effective but you're less likely to have side effects on them. i didn't have any, i actually lost weight while on the pill!

REDFEATHERS said:

WTF

WHY not ?

jaimestarr79 said:

or just a push bike

REDFEATHERS said:

wow good thing org rumors blow man

they said you were fucking dogs

KIDDING

I don't give a shit

I'm spayed

Mach said:

I have thought about doing that because at this point in my life I have no plans to have any more kids and I am getting older.

But who knows if I will eventually change my mind...so...

Mach said:

Cos fertility is a gift, and I would never choose to take that away.. some people are not that lucky while others take it for granted.

Mach said:

Did you get spayed at the vets?

REDFEATHERS said:

Actually, funny you mention this. The person I see the most right now has had a vasectomy...but it's not a permanent situation with him, plus I have someone else that I sometimes see...so I really think I need to get on this.
