Wherever the plane lands
Would a woman actually believe a guy who says, "Don't worry, I'm on the pill"

UK scientists invent male 'pill' that can be taken hours before sex

British scientists have developed a revolutionary pill that men could take as a one-off contraceptive just before a date.
The tablet would prevent a man from being able to impregnate a woman, but within a few hours his fertility would return to normal.

The rest of the article is here

hmmm...would a man believe a woman who told him the same thing? I personally would believe a man who said he was on the pill, because a man who would make this statement would most certainly not want to procreate under the conditions that led him to make the statement in the first place. Now, I would question the time frame since ingestion of the pill...additional precautions would be necessary I think...not only for the additional protection, but for protection from STD's too.

Sound kinda bogus. Based on how that system works I don't see how it could be accomplished in the time frame specified short of jamming that pill you know where to block anything from leaving the body. Even a vasectomy takes much more time to work.

Still holding on to the baby. She has a NST today so we will hopefully know more if these are real contractions or the Brackston Hicks (sp?).

Thanks for asking.

They will probably discover that their test subject just stands too close to the microwave oven in anticipation of his Hungry Man dinner and that is what is making him sterile.

Maybe it's just me, but I would not trust birth control to the same gender that leaves 1/10 of a millileter in the milk jug so it's not "technically" empty and they don't have to throw said jug away.

So they take it before sex? How long does it take to go into effect and would a guy really be able to wait that long??

In too many instances the answer to that one would be "Too long and not bloody likely".

That's why I couldn't trust them to take it right.

I'd sure be nervous asking a woman the same thing. After all, this is the same sex that don't believe the mirror, so they ask a man if the jeans make them look fat. If they can't figure that out, can you think they are taking the pill correctly?

Oh happy...LOL. We know what we look like in the mirror, we just want to know what YOU think we look like. The answer should always be "You look great dear" and then we'll smile and move on.

My answer is allways, "You look perfect dear, it's not like it's gonna stay on very long after we get back home anyway"

If you really want to know what we think, why do you have a pre-packaged "You look great dear" answer that is required from us?

Oh yeah, because you want to see if we really are THAT stupid. Sadly, some of us are... :Goes to linen closet for a blanket and pillow for the couch:

Fortunately, I am smarter than that, even though I've never been married

The whole thing reminds me of the movie Tommy Boy, when Tommy (Chris Farley) asks Richard (David Spade) "Does this suit make me look fat?" "No, your face does."

Also the same gender that appears either afraid or incapable of putting the toilet seat down themselves, so they berate men into doing for them.

Jay Leno discussed the male birth control pill last night during the monologue.

He said the problem with this whole concept is that men never know when they're going to have sex. Women know when men are going to [be allowed to] have sex, but men never know!

I almost spit my pepsi out laughing.
