I totally agree.

If condoms aren't your forte' then definitely try something w/ spermicide. The only thing about spericide is that if you have had U.T.I's before spermicide could potentially cause you to have another one. (Got this info from my doc a few months ago so I don't remember exactly *why* or *what* was it in the spermicide that might help cause another U.T.I., so I guess just keep that in mind if you have had U.T.I's before or whatever or better yet, talk to your doc for other options to use in leiu of pulling out or spermicide or whatever)

One of my friends in college used "pulling out" as her "backup" but really, it did her no good b/c ... well, let's just say it didnt work. It's totally possible she didn't take her pills on time or whatever that could have contributed to it, but she thought pulling out would make it ok, and it didnt.

Also, be safe when it comes to sex... there are all kinds of crazy diseases going around out there.
