I've considered the IUD, but it would only be worth it if I were in a committed monogamous relationship

Oh, heck yeah. I waited until I was sure we were committed and monogamous before I went to the trouble of the IUD. I was just paranoid with only condoms.

And we *still* use condoms, every single time we have PIV sex. We are the most paranoid people on the planet. (But, well, condoms mean less mess, too, and I just don't find the messy byproducts of sex to be very sexy. Ick. I am what I am.)

Wet spots ruin the afterglow.

Considering copper rings turn my skin green, I don't think I want anything copper up in there!

I'm pretty sure you're not locked down to Cu.

And there's also plenty of non P in V sex to be had.

And there's also plenty of non P in V sex to be had.

True dat.

I'm pretty sure you're not looked down to Cu.

I know Cu is copper, but I do not know what this means. Sorry. Perhaps I am still hungover.

And there's also plenty of non P in V sex to be had.

This is not the alternative I was looking for, Obi Wan.

Just get a non-copper IUD. Try anal. Frottage. Mutual masturbation. Bunch of stuff.

I think "locked down" was intended.

Locked down was in fact edited in right afterwards.

Nonian, I'm glad you called the doctor.

Damn, Steph, I hope this does it for you, and I hope you escape the AB side effects.

I mean seriously, i'm already using a condom and BCP, i don't need to chemically destroy all the little sperms as well. Total overkill.

Yeah, I'm on BCP. StW brought the condoms, I didn't even realize they had spermicide until after when he was putting the extras in my dresser.

I refuse to whitefont the lube!

Ahahahaha!! Tempted to COMM or tag this.

Can I also say, since I'm already TMI-ing, how nice it is that I don't have to remind him to use a condom every time, and that he hasn't tried to talk me out of one yet? So nice.

I will have NO flora left anywhere within a 10-foot range of me.

Oh dears. Good thing you already take a probiotic.
