    Condoms break. The best prevention is layered birth control, two different forms like condom plus another method which will increase effectiveness to near 100%.

    Also you can’t be seriously saying that all men happily use a condom. Been on the receiving end of much weedling and stealth removal.

      Seriously, why is this such a common thing? It is straight up rape. I have had it happen to me multiple times in my life.

      It’s important to note, for those who need to know it, that “layering birth control” should only be done with different types (ie a condom and a spermicide, or a condom and the BC pill, etc.) It does not mean using more than one condom at the same time! Two or more condoms create friction against each other, which can cause them to tear - defeating the purpose.

      Men like these should be taken out back and shot, no different than rape imo. I just said that condoms work and are oretty much 100% effective if used correctly. But yeah, I cede to the fact that it’s not 100% controllable from women pov.

        Condoms are only 98% effective, even with perfect use. That means that in a year, for every 100 people who use condoms as their only method of prevention, two of them will get pregnant.

        Not even taking into account typical use (which results in closer to 12 pregnancies for every 100 people), 2 for every 100 of the hundreds of thousands of people that use condoms, is not “pretty much 100% effective”. Please don’t tell people that it is.
