Apparently I have not considered the vast spectrum of vaginas and ease (or not ) of use. But, I think it is still at least worth a try ( and cheaper).

Unless you are with-holding for some reason, semen spills out just like anything else. After six hours its gone (the wet spot — shrug). Spermacide is called "cide" for a reason. And you diaphragm babies, I don't know. Yes, you do have to take a little time (like remembering the pill [shudder]), but I simply can't…

You insert your middle finger into your vagina, quickly hook under the rim and out it comes. And all the messy sperm (the pill) has already already gone, Yay. Perhaps a tiny of jelly. Seldom.

ABSOLUTELY NOT. Prescription spermacide? what? OTC has always been ....well, IT. (never ever heard of such a thing - WTF is the Industry trying to make you believe?.....retreating into my childfree cave...)

Size. We are all amazingly different. Otherwise? Money; always money.......

You need a scrpit for the pill. You need to be especially fitted for a dia. It is not embarrassing or even slighty weird .The usual Gyno exam. but if they know what you want — no problem. Every vagina and cervix are differnt.

MCs. Not the same as this birth control. Lovelt, tight, snug fit:).

Vintage?? Yes. I believe it because women (sorry, "media") never ever mention them anymore. But, really, they rock and are nearly infallible if you take care (yes, I know of a fail, but she was very careless). The primary argument against them? They take time to insert, "the heat of the moment." Of coures the "moment…

I figured you might have got me confused with someone else. That's OK. I admire your comments, pat. Keep talk'in:)

I'm not sure if that was a diss, or not, but it was damn good.

Why are you so angry? I am single and childfree by choice. I work. Hard. But compassionate work (you know - the kind that actually benefits REAL people) isn't valued enough these days to provide affordable health care. Please go back to Gawker or the insecure place you are currently residing at. So angry......should…

You are brave and wonderful.

Perfectly justifiable rant. Thanks Guy

Klaus, I'm a 'certified' (whatever) cynic, but, Please, just try.....It maybe could happen. BTW, Annie is my favorite vocalist forever and evermore. She rules.

THANK you, Anne. #notjustatabloid

Best comment today, in my opinion. You need way more rec/stars. (BTW: wish I had chosen "obscure." I get so much shit for my username. People seem so sensitive & mean. Sorry.Not about me). Sorry, I've had a glass of vino, but I still know quality when I read it:)

Sadly, the most brilliant of folks don't often do well in the private realm. Actually, I wish the media would just stop it. I really don't care about it, but seductive prose and tabloid excitement keep me from walking away, damn it. Why are we so voyeuiristic despite our better sense? I have not seen that series yet…

Absolutely. (i'm sorry) Google professions and psycopathology. I wasn't really surprised by what I saw (warning: Google). Still: Clergy, cops, etc.

This brief article is so unlike your usual work (which I frankly love —-so, far). Even I AM too young to know all I should probably know about this whole mess. Please don't (have?) to do this again. I love good writing; I love a good story + humor and you are a favorite. Ok, I get it; sometimes you have to just do…

Same to you, my dear. Sending healing and comfort vibes your way.
