Birth Control and Swinging

I'll start this off by saying I'm not a doctor so if you have any questions about your specific sexual or overall health, your health care practitioner would be the person to as ('cause they know stuff about your dangly bits and whatnot).

So, a vast majority of swingers don't swing to get children sired by different fathers. There is a fetish for this, that fetish is not tied to swinging, it is very very separate. Like super extra double deluxe separate.  I believe it has to do with a kind of cuckolding breeding fetish? I don't have that fetish so I can't tell ya. (Do you have that fetish? Tell me about it!)

Birth control. There are many many different types. I will go over the pros and cons of each and how they relate to swinging and what they do to your body and protect you from. Read on!

"Condoms may not protect from everything, but neither do seat belts - they are just the most practical and effective choice at hand to reasonably minimize risk." SLS user "catnipfun." 

Condoms (male)
Barrier method: Condoms are pretty universal and are easy to use. They are easy to find. They protect against pregnancy about 71-85% success rate. Pretty low on their own, but good to add to other methods.  Latex and polyurethane and other synthesized types of condoms are good because they protect against many STD/STIs like AIDS, chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis and more. No condom can protect against HPV. Natural condoms do not protect against anything other than pregnancy.  Condoms are good because you can switch them between partners.  They are a little pricier than I think they should be, especially for the good brands or the polyisoprene or polyurethane ones (like Trojan supras or Durex avanti bare. You also have non-latex options for those that are allergic or want to switch it up. What sucks about any condom is that they taste like lube and latex/plastic even if you buy the flavored ones. Then it's like giving head to a balloon.

Condoms (female)
Barrier method:

Spermicide
chemical method:

Diaphragms/Cervical caps
Barrier method:

Sponges
Barrier method:

Birth control pill
Hormonal method:

Implant
Hormonal method:

IUD
Hormonal OR non-hormonal method:

Vasectomy

Hysterectomy/Tubal litigation

Family Planning
Lifestyle method:

Continuous breastfeeding (LAM)
Lifestyle method? Ok, so until I started researching for this entry I had never heard of using continual breast feeding as a method of birth control.

I have returned!

Quick post just to update everyone that I am back from the Godless Gathering PA.0. I survived and had an incredible time.  Met some fantastic people that I'm sad I only get to see once or twice a year.  It was pretty successful. The video footage will be uploaded later.  It will be uploaded to my original youTube channel, and then mirrored at the EroticWetAtomic youTube channel. Also, I have a twitter that I might annoyingly update sometimes; #eroticwetatomic. Just editing the post to announce that the video footage has been uploaded to YouTube under EroticWetAtomic (this attached channel) and FineLineFalling, my regular "G" rated channel.

A Note on the Importance of Communication in Relationships

As someone in a poly relationship, i hear all the time about how important communication and honesty is. It's beaten into our heads over and over again. "Problem? Talk about it." Sure, it makes sense, it's logical, it's what people should do. So then, why do people have such a hard time being honest? I'm going to say this very plainly. The truth is always better than a lie. As far as i'm concerned anyway. Just be honest, especially with your friends. This isn't always about romantic relationships, poly or otherwise. Friendships, play partnerships, they're all types of relationships. Don't want to hang out? Awesome. Say so. Don't make excuses. I get that people are busy, or have things to do, or are feeling not too social that day. Don't want to fuck? Awesome. Say so. Don't leave me wondering if i'm some sort of sexual predator because you say that you want to get intimate and because I trust you, I believe y...

KateHarding.net's "Guest Blogger Starling: Schrödinger’s Rapist: or a guy’s guide to approaching strange women without being maced"

I found this article some months ago and was recently reintroduced to it. My last entry had to do with women related things, let's focus on what goes on inside the brains of us very lovey ladies and woman-identified peoples.  The full original article can be found here on KateHarding.net and I recommend every single person that comes to my blog go over there and read it (or read excerpts here). Gentlemen. Thank you for reading. Let me start out by assuring you that I understand you are a good sort of person. You are kind to children and animals. You respect the elderly. You donate to charity. You tell jokes without laughing at your own punchlines. You respect women. You like women. In fact, you would really like to have a mutually respectful and loving sexual relationship with a woman. Unfortunately, you don’t yet know that woman—she isn’t working with you, nor have you been introduced through mutual friends or drawn to the same activities. So you must look fur...
