So I was thinking about this the other day. I have recently watched 2 movies that made reference to the diaphram...(hush and the family guy movie LOL) I realized I don't know of 1 girl that actually uses a diaphram. I am very ignorant in regards to the subject. I was just wondering if anyone here used them, how affective they are, and the pros and cons, and if people thought guys would actually be for them...what with them not having to worry about the protection end of stuff.
it doesn't seem to be a very common form of contraception, or maybe not amongst women of our age. I was wondering the same thing about the female condom...have you ever seen one? the other day i was watching a programme on tv and they were talking about the female condom and they had one there to show the public.

Diaphrams are effective birth control if used properly, but of course they offer no protection against any STD's. It seems that OB-GYN's tend to push the pill, followed by the newer IUD's that release chemicals. Personally, I think guys who don't want to make babies should get vasectomies; it's about $300.
