I'll change my mind? I'm beginning to change my fucking mind about continuing this conversation.

I have all this baby pressure shit coming in at me from all sides. Friends, family… well, that’s about it. Strangers aren’t approaching me and asking me why I am sans offspring. Yet.
Tell them “I just really love the taste of semen” and then look off into the distance a little, let your eyes glaze over, and lick your lips, just a little, just once. Then say, “Oh, I’m sorry, what were you saying?”
One of my few regrets was when we had been married for 3-4 years (meaning we were 25-26) someone asked me, “So what are you guys using that you’ve been able to keep from getting pregnant for so long?”
To which I said, “the pill” but I really wish I had said, “Mostly the ass.” The really strange part was that the question came from someone who had been on the pill for 8-10 years herself while “sexually active” so I was surprised at her surprise that we had somehow managed to avoid unintended pregnancy 4 years into our marriage. I’ve heard that antibiotics can reduce the effectiveness of the pill; I didn’t realize that a wedding ring could also have the same effect.
(There’s a lot more to shoesonwrong’s original post.)
