God Blessed us all with the ability to exercise self-control.
And He also put some on this earth to test it.

yeah as a woman i’ve always felt thy sorrow is my monthly visit
Well, soon I hope and pray. Don't abhor the pill but embrace the mentality behind it. Abstinence is required but marital indulgence is so much better.
Well thanks! I’m counting my chickens a little bit since #10 is T - 1 Month but the ultrasound shows she is almost 5 pounds and beautiful.
OK, one month to go so next month. /sheepish.
The sad truth.
Pregnancy is a beautiful benefit. So I agree.
So men can’t insist they wear a condom?
I read somewhere that she credits, at least in part, her daily ballet lessons as a child with helping her attain her breathtaking figure.
Beyond that, avoiding smoking, excessive drinking and too much sun will probably do a lot toward helping anyone retain a youthful appearance later in life.
It's shocking and terribly sad to see so many young women that spend a lot of time in bars who at age 30 could easily pass for 50
I hope that everyone knows that I do not point that out as an issue of fairness, or competition, or any of that kind of shallow guy versus chick, stuff.
What I am talking about is that it came about as a recent disruption in the natural equilibrium of the two sexes in America, it has wreaked havoc on single women, and introduced sexual, and financial chaos into the dating and mate choosing process (welfare support is part of that), and all of that has caused the social and cultural problems that we all talk about so much.
The only thing that can send us back to the centuries of normalcy, is men suddenly being able to easily control when they impregnate during the sexual act, that will stir female instincts to come up with counter strategies, which naturally, are the old tried and true ones, when men controlled the results of pregnancy, which in effect gave them total power over their sex actions.
Condoms, as ineffective as they are, have been around for centuries.
Evidently making love to a glove, has never appealed to men.
I don't know what the "sex balance" is. But physiologically, everyone that wants to have sex wants to reproduce. If their mind does not want to reproduce they are psychologically messed up and their mind and body are in conflict. I predict that a male form of chemical birth control will either pander to the anti-natal psychological disorder (infantile lust) or destroy the sex drive (ex. Depo Provera is used for chemical castration) either way, it will exacerbate the conflict between mind and body and further destroy relationships between the sexes.
“Would women trust a man who says he’s taking the pill??”
I must say I’ve great trust in my husband and have for the 21 years I’ve been married to him. But I’m the one who has to have the child; not him. I’d have to think hard and long about it just as I did when I made a marriage commitment.
If fewer and fewer American's have any posterity to secure, it's no wonder that we have become so reckless and spendthrift with our blessings. Look at the irrational stock market. It's eat drink and be merry for tomorrow we die!
I’m 50 and can pass for late thirties for forty. I credit staying out of the sun and no cigarettes.
One more thing: use a good cosmetic line, I use Clinique and make sure I never go to bed with make up on. In the last 30 years I’ve only missed washing my face before bed just once.
Too bad. They are effective; just not as birth control pills.
Well, the problem with assigning fault to something or someone for the decline of moral values in our society is an excuse to exonerate individuals from their own responsibilities. With freedom comes responsibilities, and blaming the pill, condoms, or any other birth control method for our actions isn’t the right way to deal with our weakness.
Psalm 137
1 By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.
