Discount stores like Wal-Mart rather than grocery or drug stores are a less expensive route for condom purchases.

Used of any sort, even in the same "session," is a very bad idea.

I notice there're some sounding of misandry on this topic.

"Women" today are "liberated" and are every bit as self-involved as men have been conventionally depicted.

"Some of our students have two jobs, have children," Jessop said. "To increase this by 100 percent or more overnight, which is what happened, is a huge shock to them and to their system."

I'd say!!!!

Working 4 jobs and double the kids would REALLY be taxing on ANYONE!

Hahaha! I was a good girl while at MSU- probably studied too much. The pills were to regulate endometriosis.

Good. If you're not married you shouldn't be having sex, and if you are married, you shouldn't be using artificial contraceopton.

[thebaron512]

That was my thought as well, but bitching about $20 raise in price a month does seem to a "hit piece" news to me!

[Pinkbell]

Boo hoo to those girls! The media thinks we are supposed to care that they have to pay more to keep spreading their legs. Maybe this will encourage some of them to try abstinence. Although, I doubt it. Most will probably continue to pay for their birth control pills, even if costs them more money.

The pills were to regulate endometriosis.

Oh yes I am sure. Even good girls sometimes suddenly take off their glasses, undo their hair .. and then other things. (Or maybe I am confusing good girls with the "good girls" in adult themed movies.)

[rintense]

Believe it or not, I didn't. I hated MSU (too big) and commuted home every weekend.

[HarmlessLovableFuzzball]

Relax. I only said that in jest.

[rintense]

I know. I know... I'm just giving ya a hard time too.

[HarmlessLovableFuzzball]

You are just like jillvalentine. Firing guns with the face mostly hidden. :)

My mother sells condoms to students
My sisters pokes holes with a pin
My brother performs the abortions
and oh how the money rolls in.

I think you, um, nailed it.

$22/month? When I was in college, a lot of women spent that much in a day on makeup.

Unfortunately, I went to an Ivy League school. I don't think the women on campus spent that much on makeup in four years. Or razors.

That's funny, because I commuted to Larry Tech, and then on weekends I hitchhiked up to MSU for the parties... :) Mid-seventies, though... Don't try it now!

[randog]

Understood. Most of the women at my alma mater were majoring in marriage.

[napscoordinator]

Supply and demand!!! Basic economics.

I buy mine by the gross at Sam's Club.

I think one got me all the way through college. Carried it in my wallet "just in case". It wasn't so much that the girls were chaste as it was that I was ugly. Or maybe I went to school before sex was invented.

[little jeremiah]

What to say? Just this: Human beings actually have the capacity to control their sex organs. Really! Waiting until marriage is not only the right thing to do, but it makes people happier. Acting like animals in rut does not make for happiness, either at the moment or in the future.
