Right. Because that's what it is every time a woman gets pregnant, a trick.  :rolleyes:
I know of two :ph34r: and in my acquaintance group not many people are getting pregnant so it's a disturbingly high percentage.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

If there is an understanding that one person is supposed to be doing something important like be on the pill and they are not that is a pretty big trust violation.

QuoteWhich actually makes my point for me. If there were a pill for men, no one would ever need to hear those accusations again.

Oh so if the shoe was on the other foot and the man lied about being on the pill the woman would be overjoyed she got pregnant against her wishes?  I did not realize only men got upset about being lied to.  Women are cool with it?

I would rather take a manwhore pill than get my junk cut on or have another kid.

They are and I love kids but no way, I am done.  I'm almost 42; my oldest is off to colllge this year and my youngest is 16.5 and a junior.  No way in hell am I starting over with diapers and teething toys and car seat or any of that crap.

I think it's still too early to celebrate. She's only 4 days late. I'm unsure how long we need to wait before a test.

Male birth control pills wouldn't prevent the spread of STDs.  Which you shouldn't be allowed to test for at home, anyway.

True always better to be forced to get that disappointed look from the clinician when they ask you how many partners you've had in the last year.

I'd think you'd get more of them.
"I'm pregnant it seems!"
"You said you were on the pill! You lying bitch!"
"ME?!?! It was you who said you were on the pill you stupid cunt!"

Stupid gets as stupid does.

You're assuming that the accusation is true. I'm saying that whether or not it is, men are awfully quick to claim it and put the blame anywhere but on themselves (or on the fact that pills aren't 100% full-proof). If there is a male pill, then they could take care of themselves each, meaning that if they ended up pregnant it would be BOTH of their faults.

I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...
