Nope I find it a word I don't use ..ever. Even reading it out loud sounds foreign to me.

Further to the entertainment thing,
Couldn't the Council make use of the newly repaired Aotea Square? Y'know ,the one next to the Town Hall. That would fit nicely into the Warriors Game Sunday.

Although this is a bit of a threadjack (sorry Emma) I felt this is one for the ladies so what the hey.

Do women who get side-effects from the regular Pill get the same ones from the IUDs
Not me. IUDs are also good for other hormonal and even physical complications. I am impressed with these little critters.

A few pics, with your boy Clayton in there.
Gee thanks Joe , although not my boy, was hoping more that you guys had some support. ;) Hope you all got something out of going even though it must feel like the never ending saga. I'm assuming there is no pics of you then?

But taking responsibility for sex and keeping ourselves and our partners safe? That’s something we should be sharing equally.
That was my point.Everyone could take responsibility and the kids I've helped raise all carry condoms on them, and for them it is a no brainer. So I think sex education is a good thing.
Anyway I am not wanting to argue. It was jmo. -

Guys like you are the reason I got an STI & have used the morning after pill 3 times.
Actually, I think it is a little unfair, does take two to tango.
I made some pretty crap decisions there, but why was I put in the position to be that gatekeeper in the first place?
You were put in that position because you were naive and chose to be there, making you responsible for yourself, in that position, hence the good reasoning around the need for sex ed. It is not the other persons fault if you choose to have sex. I thought we all wanted equality here? I just can't get behind blaming someone else for ones own ignorance.There are many protections that both sexes can use to have a healthy relationship, and that should be taught too. To have multiple partners or liasons is a personal choice so one needs personal responsibility for ones own actions.
Ben did say he was adding his experience to the bigger picture. I thought he expressed himself pretty honestly (and consistently), enough for me anyway to wonder if he was circumcised, or not, as that may have been his difficulty, or he may have been getting condoms a bit too small, stretchy as they may be. Maybe the reasons there is non use of condoms should actually be a study in itself, cos honesty is a good way to start to understand why. jmo though. -

I don’t recall it ever being a big deal to ask a guy to use a condom
Well, that in itself may be entirely why Ben had difficulty ;)

If they’d put it over their head and then tried to continue the lecture,
This is good. I probably would have turned up if we had that. Hell, I would have made it a subject for my photography class. :)
