@Penny: I mean, come the fuck on, lady...if you MUST take your pants off and make sexyface for the camera, do it on your OWN bed!

I have been on the pill for almost 16 years, so this makes me extremely happy. (It also jibes with what my ob-gyns have been telling me all along—that there are not only very low risks, but also significant net benefits to my health).

@DonnaPirana: If they won't use a condom, chances are they won't take a pill.
