This sounds like a pretty good defense to me. It's the same one I used to use. Now, I stick with the pill and condoms (mainly since I'm not in a monogomous relationship).
I'm not allergic to latex.... Is this an allergy that has developed for you, or is it something you always had, but just never knew what it was?

well i don't know if i really plan on getting married - don't see the point of it, really. as for ready to have children, I am. Sure I'm not in the BEST financial situation, but it's not bad, I'm confident I could handle it if it were to happen (certainly better off than my cousin who was pregnant at 18!) [don't forget, I'm in Canada so a lot of expenses you may have down there are diff, and i think maternity leave here is better].
Now, I do agree though staying on the pill or something else if you're not ready - also my doc once told me the risks associated with BC are much less than all the problems that can occur with pregnancy, so yeah it's usually better to stay on the pill. I just have decided that preventing pregnancy is not a high priority anymore. And like i mentioned, it's not like I'm getting any action to begin with. Maybe if I were to get back into a relationship, I might start again.
I have a friend who uses IUD and she loves it. I just get squeamish at the thought of that procedure though (although I'm not usually squeamish about much - heck I've seen my own cervix! thanks to the doc and a hand mirror  )

Doc said it could have developed over time. It didn't affect me so much with my last bf. But as I've gotten older, it seems to have developed into something where I can't have a guy use a latex at all. I won't go into the details of a reaction... it borders along TMI.

Yeah, I have heard about some of the reactions... Not fun.
Interesting that these kind of things can develop over time.... Maybe a change in hormones or something?

Maybe... or it was always there, but never surfaced. I've always had "some" sort of issue... but not nearly as bad. So perhaps the developing over time issue isn't the allergy itself, just the severity of it.
(Kinda like I never had allergies prior to moving to Sacramento. Now I get hayfever...  )

Um, I don't mean to offend, but I doubt I will be taking advice from an old drunk dude about birth control.

Lay off the bottle. Seriously. In case you didn't know, it takes two to have a baby. Men should be just as interested in birth control. And are women who choose to have sex loose? What about the men?

Um, the "lay off the bottle" comment was warranted. I hope he wasn't sober when he called women loose for being concerned about birth control and insinutated that we're not acting like adults. Frankly, that's offensive.

There is no such thing as a loose man, man-whore, or man-ho. They are usually called playas, pimps, or simply "The Man".

Women just call them "diseased."
