Protection

Did you know that there is a certain % of women that when taking a contraceptive of any kind will end up with no sex drive?

That is womens lib for you they gave us the freedom to choose when we want babies by giving us contraceptive but in doing that they take away our sex drive....

Explains alot, wow. Fiancee is going off pill :p
 
LOLZ!

But really it's a funny world? We all know nookie makes babies, why is she not taking any responsibility? +100% for you!! But she has to take some to and if she doesn't want to she will just have to settle for "kinders by dosyne..... "

Our internet is fscked today so i can not get the recearch i found on the sexdrive thing.
 
What about Natural Contraception?

Yes its not 100% foolproof but its better than taking anything... or wearing anything...

Only have sex during certain times work out her menstrual cycle so then you know you may not have sex at certain times...

+1. But some women can't be 100% sure of when they are ovulating.
 
AFAIK the Pill has some long term negative effects.

It might have changed from a few years back but I'm against the pill completely. There is other ways like not pumping your load in her to begin with :D Condoms and anti sperm cream and a whole chemist full of other stuff.

I'll try and post a link to research for "The pill"
 
The wife and I still play it safe, she's on the pill and I use Durex Extra Safe. Still haven't even come close to making the decision to have children yet.

I was lucky though, she decided for herself to go onto the pill years ago.

Pregnancy


Typical use of combined oral contraceptive pills prevents a diagnosed pregnancy in only 90 to 96 percent of women, which means that four to 10 women out of every 100 using the pill for one year will have a diagnosed pregnancy. 4,6,10

The pill's third mechanism is to change the lining of the endometrium (the lining of the womb), which creates a hostile environment for a newly created human being. The tiny baby cannot implant and is spontaneously aborted by the body. 4,5,6,11,12

As quoted in the booklet Does the Birth Control Pill Cause Abortions? by Randy Alcorn, a representative of the Ortho-McNeil pharmaceutical company said, "If you end up with a fertilized egg [new human being], it [the baby boy or girl] won't implant and grow because of the less hospitable endometrium." 1

"It seems unlikely that implantation would be possible in the altered endometrium developed under the influence of most of the suppressants [of ovulation]." 3

Environmental


Researchers have found that caged adult trout exposed to ethynylestradiol, a synthetic estrogen, were half as fertile as fish kept in clean water. The trout were exposed to the estrogen for two months, and then bred with a healthy female. 13

Doug Myers, a wetlands and habitat specialist for the Puget Sound Action Team, said that scientists are "finding the presence of female hormones making the male species less male" in frogs, river otters and fish. 5,13

"Scientists in western Washington found that synthetic estrogen - a common ingredient in oral contraceptives - drastically reduces the fertility of male rainbow trout." 5

After randomly netting 123 trout downstream from a Boulder Creek sewer treatment facility, including 101 female trout, 12 male trout and 10 "intersex" trout (having both male and female traits), scientists in Colorado discovered that "estrogens and other steroid hormones from birth-control pills and patches" caused the fish's genetic alteration. 5


Spiritual


A couple taking the pill: "Hence to use this divine gift [the sexual act] while depriving it [taking contraception], even if only partially, of its meaning and purpose, is equally repugnant to the nature of man and of woman, and is consequently in opposition to the plan of God and His holy will." 9

Relationship

Depression 7,8

Changes in libido (usually decreased libido) 4,7,8

Ways in which the pill destroys relationships:

It easily opens the door for marital infidelity;

it especially opens the door for temptation to youth;

"a man who grows accustomed to the use of contraceptive methods may forget the reverence due to a woman, and... reduce her to being a mere instrument for the satisfaction of his own desires, no longer considering her as his partner whom he should surround with care and affection."9

There's a term for people who use this method of contraception: "Parents".

True.

But read the references at the bottom ;)
This is research done by a variety of different Profs and what not. The fact that it is on a Anti-Pill sight is beside the point :p
 
Lets keep this thread at least semi-decent.

It's not just an anti-pill site per se. It's part of a pro-life campaign.

EDIT - did you actually read the references at the bottom?

You mean bucket of salt.

True.

You will notice that they mention the levels of the drug has been changed to be safer for females. In turn it causes miss carages instead of no pregnancy. That is also in there I remember reading it as I quoted it.

I have always been Anti Pill. Because of an Article I read years and years ago when I was still a laaitjie in one of my Dad's Porn mags :p
 
Many People can plan it for years and not get pregnant as long as you play it safe...

Thats why Sex out of marriage is soo risky...
No - that's not why. An unintended pregnancy is the least of your worries.
