Dead Babies

For some reason, be it the weak economy, the chill in the air, or just weird karma, almost every person I know, myself included, seems to be not just hooking up, but actually settling down and dating someone.

And since no one is married, we are young and we are not christians, birth control is a large topic of dicussion.

I've never been on any form of birth control.
And why is it that it's all the woman's responsibility?
Men have one (non-permanent) option.
Condoms.
That's it.

Meanwhile us woman can wear diaphragms in our cooters, shoot spermicide up there, or take some pill or patch or insert a fucking piece of metal that will release all kinds of crazy hormones that turn us into bleeding, bloating freaks.

And then guys give US shit because they don't wanna wear a condom.

You would rather me mess with my body chemistry?!
and that doesn't even protect against disease!!


Here's my question.
If they can make a pill that can make an 80 year old man get an erection long enough to have crazy old man sex, than how come they can't invent a pill that will just KILL SPERM?!

How hard would that be? It can't be that hard.
If spermicide kills sperm, put that shit in a pill or in a patch or in a piece of metal and stick it up the guys peehole and see how he likes it.

For now, I'll stick with condoms.
At least they come in different colors and styles and sometimes flavors (although any flavored just tastes like that flavor + plastic.)

So quit your bitching boys.
Or else I will kick you in the balls once a month so you know what it feels like to have your ovaries twist themselves into knots for a few days.
Sure feels a lot better than popping out a kid though, I imagine.

The medical people actually DO have a pill that is like birth control pill for men that they are currently testing, so i have a feeling that it's not too far down the road that it will be available to men. However, who knows if men will really want to take it or what.

Personally, i loved, loved, LOVED being on the pill. That more so had to do with my CRAZY period though. There was a definite perk once i was in a relationship because, let's be honest, condoms are NOT comfortable/fun. They leave a funky smell, and can dry a woman out (at least they did for me). Sex just feels better without one. So, i can't really get upset with a guy when he says he doesn't want to wear one (well, i would if i were every presented with the opportunity for a one night stand, because that policy is "no glove no love" regardless if i'm on the pill or not--which i'm not anymore).

I just wish they could come up with something ELSE other than the BC options they have already. I sometimes failed at remembering to take the pill, an IUD can be painful, i'm not keen to sticking a ring up my va-jay-jay every week, and i've heard the shot can make you crazier than normal (and i think they took the patch off the market). I don't mind being the one who has to take it (esp. if it helps my period), i just wish there was something that was DIFFERENT out there.

This comment is epically long, so i'll end it now, haha.
