      The pull out method doesn’t work.

      I know this because I have a friend who swears by it. He has four ooops-babies.

        More reliable than the pill if you can’t trust the person taking it.

        Source: one oops-baby from “yes I’m on the pill”. None from pulling out.

        I’m convinced most people who have babies with the pull out method didn’t actually pull out in time. There is of course extra risk if you ejaculate and then go for another round without clearing the pipes first.

        Don’t rely on any of this though. I know people who do it with strangers too. I’ve only ever really done it in relationships where if there’s a baby eventually, it’s not the end of the world.

          I got my partner pregnant from penetration without ejaculation. We would fuck a bit then put on a condom to finish. Turns out that doesn’t work reliably (not a huge problem for us, since we were planning on having a kid a few months later anyway).
