Please Take Note: 2 Condoms = LESS PROTECTION (V. Imp!)
I’ve noticed a somewhat disturbing trend in pop culture recently, wherein people suggest using two condoms at once (“double bagging”) for double the condom efficacy. Except that actually equals less protection, not more. Edited to add: Molly: Are you gonna be double bagging your junk on our honeymoon? Mike & Molly, season 2 episode 18 “Peggy … Continue reading
I Need Affordable Birth Control for LEGITIMATE, MEDICAL Reasons
And so do a whole lot of other women. It’s hard for one little blog to make an impact, but I’m trying to do my part by sharing my story. Birth Control is NOT exclusively used for preventing pregnancy. It is also used for addressing medical concerns. Since employers/schools/etc don’t know what prompted the need for … Continue reading
Best TV Coming Out Scenes

Ultimately I would like some answers straight from MTV, but I don’t think I’m high enough on the blogging food chain … Continue reading
Dear Sarah Palin – Your Family Completely Refutes The Logic Of Abstinence-Only Sex Education
Hey Sarah, I admit that I find you to be basically ridiculous, what with your playing the martyr card every chance you get, fame-whoring, not serving full terms that you’ve been elected to, shooting wolves, & trying to act like you’re a revolutionary woman in politics when women like Hillary Clinton, Barbara Boxer, and Susan … Continue reading
Does MTV Provide Condoms for Reality Show Castmates?
Does MTV provide condoms for reality show castmates? If so, why don’t they ever seem to get used? If no, why not??? Last night I watched the four billionth season of RW/RR Challenge, which is called The Challenge: Rivals this year.

The Importance of Reading
The other sentiments are of the more strongly worded variety, so maybe don’t view at work/around little ones…
Will.i.am.NOT.a.fan
First, the quote: ELLE: If you walked into a woman’s house, what one item would convince you that you weren’t compatible? W: If she had condoms in her house, that would just f-ckin’ throw me off.
