It's kind of like deviated septums and nose jobs. I'm sure there are people out there whose septums really were deviated and they needed that nose job! For most of them? Not so much.

LOL. The truth of the matter is that the average sexually active person knows very little about their bodies and sex. People are also very careless and shortsighted at least once in their lives--35 year old versions of children and it unfortunately has lasting consequences sometimes.

Afterall, there are a lot of grown men who think they need to wear a Magnum. Just another example of the ignorance and ridiculousness of adult sexual activity.

Billy Joel's daughter also said that. Funny.

I met an adult woman at a work-related seminar (with a Master's in a health-related field) who told me you couldn't get pregnant while on your period.

I felt like I was in 7th grade all over again.

I had a friend in college who told me that her sex ed teacher in HS told her that you couldn't get pregnant if your BF's penis was less than 4" because it wouldn't extend through the cervix to implant the sperm into the endometrial cavity:eek: I laughed my ass off! I told her that she didn't want any man's penis going through her cervix! It's amazing how little people know about how all of that stuff works!

There was a mini-series in the UK that addressed many of these issues and was pretty funny. Surprisingly liberal & honest, considering it was on tv! http://sexperienceuk.channel4.com/sex-education

The first six-part series of The Sex Education Show tackled the nation's sexual ignorance and reticence by capturing a wide range of different personal experiences of sexual issues and problems, as well as offering candid advice. The series uncovered the secret sex lives of teenagers as they talk about pornography, abortion, sexual disease, homosexuality, peer pressure and pregnancy. Together with the results of the biggest ever television survey of teenage attitudes to sex, it revealed a striking picture of the real state of sex education in Britain today.

Well, it was British. Most other developed countries have a much more liberal and honest view about sex education than Americans do. Blame our crazy Puritan past!

I have a coworker who, at 42 had an oops pregnancy. She thought she could only get pregnant a day or two before her period. I remember her saying "He was here for the weekend like two weeks after I started my last one so I should have been safe" Unreal.

And then, when my daughter was in 8th grade, she came to me and asked me if I would buy condoms for her to give to her friend. Her friend was using the withdrawal method and my daughter was terrified that her friend would get pregnant. My daughter tried really hard to convince the friend that this was not an effective method. Thankfully, the friend did not get pregnant.
