[QUOTE=Allene;158758]That's not exactly the answer I was looking for...[/QUOTE]

Pulling out is a DANGEROUS way of practicing birth control...you don't play russian roulette with a gun...so don't even consider "pulling out" as any sort of safe sex trip..:cool:

umm ok i'm really new to sex but pulling out is a bad idea!....period....my friend used to use the "pull out" technique and they figured they were ok and she wouldn't get pregnant...well that was a year ago and she's got a baby girl now so u do the math and make him use a condom! no condom...no sex, make that a rule! or if u dont even do that at least go on the pill

BAD IDEA!!! There is semen in preejaculate, so you can get pregnant without him cumming inside you. You should also remember that if you were to have sex twice, there would still be semen on his penis, and same goes for if he had masturbated or recieved a handjob earlier. Same thing goes for if had masturbated or received a handjob earlier and had any cum on his fingers and then fingered you. There are way too many things wrong with this technique of birth control.

In the middle ages, they did this because there wasn't really anything else you could do to prevent pregnancy. Nowadays, we have cheap, effective means of birth control at our fingertips, so take advantage of it! In my city, there is a free, confidential health clinic where anyone over 11 (or maybe it's 12) can get totally free contraceptives. I get the ring from this clinic.

(The ring is like the pill, but its a plastic ring you insert in your vagina, you leave it in for three weeks, take it out for one while you have your period, and put a new one in. It's great because you can't forget to take a dose, like with the pill, and it's not visible on your body, like the patch.)

Another thing, STDs are real! Even if pulling out were an effective contraceptive, which it is absolutely NOT, you still should have him wear a condom until you get checked for STIs/STDs and he can show you the paperwork. So... get some condoms! Health centers give these out for free. My high school even gave out free condoms. Otherwise, they are cheap and very easy to come by, and about 98% effective when used correctly. I think I read a statistic that said that pulling out is about 80% effective.

SO GET SOME BIRTH CONTROL!

And, get to your clinic and see if you can take the MORNING AFTER PILL if it's been 72 hours or less since the last time you had unprotected sex! This could save you the cost and trauma of an abortion/having a baby!

I had the same reaction. lol

If you don't know basic stuff like this, you're not ready to be having sex. These questions should be asked BEFORE, not after as a second thought.

I can't even begin to expain how much this bothers me. Sex makes babies! Figure it out!! If you don't know exactly how to prevent that from happening, there shouldn't be a penis anywhere near your vagina. There are already way too many unwanted children who don't get a proper upbringing because mommy and daddy are more concerned with getting their pants off than the possible consequences.

wow thats a bad idea

no glove no love

lmao i like that rhyme, well she hasnt been back.. maybe she was joking :)

Better yet, use BOTH birth control pills and condoms!

Sperm can live for a while. So, if you had sex several times and there was any sperm on his penis, yes you could get pregnant. Remember, there are millions of sperm in a drop of semen, so even if it doesn't seem like there is any semen on his penis, there may be.

I'm very glad you're going on the pill soon! Remember, though, that the Pill does nothing to protect against STDs! In addition, the Pill is not 100% effective. Some people do get pregnant when on the Pill, so a backup is a good idea. Your partner is putting himself and you at great risk by not using a condom, and I would suggest that you tell him that he has to wear a condom or you're not going to have sex with him.

Good luck, and I hope everything works out!

[QUOTE=Allene;158936]So wait a minute... the only way I could get pregnant from our "pulling out" meathod is by precum... right?!? Because Sperm can't survive long at all outside of a person, so even if we have sex a few times, the sperm remaining would have died. Am I right? I think I remember my health teacher telling me something like that. And no worries... from now on, I'll take the pill. Now I'm just worried about being pregnant... at least the odds are in my favor.
Thanks[/QUOTE]

I just read around here that sperm can live a couple hours outside... its not like they die as soon as they hit the air... plus any moisture would make them last longer... whether its from you or him.
So say you had sex.... he pulled out and came... then like an hr later you did it again... unless he's urinated a few times and flushed out his system... there are still PLENTY of sperm in his tubing... that would come out in the precum.
One problem w/ pulling out is the guy might get carried away and think he can hold back before he pulls all the way out... but can't.
Also, I am on the pill... sometimes my b/f will pull out and cum on my stomach or whatever... but most of the time.. some will still get on or around my vagina.
