Serious Talk on Sex -Keep It Mature! description about a manga now added

[amemome]

For the question about how to get birth control, I don't know what it's like in other countries but I know in the uk the only over the counter birth controls you can get are condoms and the morning after pill. Even if you can get other stuff over the counter I'd suggest going to discuss about this with your doctor about what contraception is best for you. That way you may end up finding out the one you thought would be best for you isn't and there's an alternative that will be better.

Thanks for all the answers, everyone! I was curious, since I baselessly encouraged a friend of mine to use birth control with condoms...

This is something I didn't expect to see pop up c:

I had 'the talk' at the age of 9 after these girls in my class were talking about periods and girl parts at a school trip. My Mum supervised the trip, and when I went home, I asked her what they meant. So she ended up buying my these book called 'girl talk' because she felt bad having to say it to someone so young. I am 12 now, and would like to ask:

what is rape? :3 I feel a bit stupid not knowing what it properly is.

Condoms plus birth control is a great idea, and I'm glad you encouraged your friend to do that. Condoms aren't 100% effective, and birth control definitely helps =)

The title pinged me.

Rape is unconsented sex or forced sex. If somebody said no and their partner continued then that would be rape

Non-consenting/forced sex, essentially.
Oh, this point needs to be made...

Even if you are in a relationship with someone, if they force sex upon you without your consent, it is rape and therefore illegal.

The basic definition is sex without consent. If anyone forces you into sex without you saying yes, that's rape. (At least that's how I define it) =)

It's nonconsensual sex that is typically forced upon another person. It can be aggressive, as well as statutory rape (an adult having consensual sex with a minor)

There are different laws in every state/country regarding the age difference for statutory rape, so it's best to look it up if you're uncertain.

I suggest changing the title, no matter how crafty you were/are trying to be.

It's less expensive (and obnoxious) than a baby XD

My university provides free birth control. I'm sure if you have a health center nearby, you can get some inexpensive birth control.

Flavored condoms are only good for bjs. Never for actual sex.

Because if we're being serious about safe sex, it would be to use condoms for sex and bjs.

 

[Jake]

condoms are cheap?????

 

[amemome]

Yeah, this does need a title change.

just taking out "baby" will make it a ton better. any mods/ OP up for the change?

 

[cIementine]

Thanks for explaining guys c: I knew it was something along those lines and that it was illegal. I am pretty slow on all the things kids blab on about these days. Children my age are so dirty minded, it's just everything has to be related to cuss words or rape, etc :c

I think the topic on slut shaming should also be addressed in this thread.

There is such a double standard when it comes to it. If a guy has sex with lots of chicks, then he's such a player/stud/whatever. But if a girl has lots of sex, she's a slut/skank/tramp/all those words in the book.

But having lots of sex isn't a bad thing imo. As long as it's safe sex, consensual, and no one is being hurt by it aka no one is cheating. Cheating is never good, and I would never condone it.

It's in my personal values not to have lots of sex partners and one night stands, and sex should be reserved for relationships when you really care about someone and trust them. But if my friends want to have sex with someone who wants to have sex with them, then cool. Good for them. That's their decision.

When people slut shame, it's really just dumb. They say to the person to have more self-respect. But the thing is that self-respect is exactly that. It's the respect someone has for themselves. Someone could have lots of sexual partners and still respect themself. One's own respect for themself is not defined by another person.

They cost a ridiculous amount over here (or at least the decent/trusted brands do)
I'm pretty sure we have the highest teenage pregnancy rates here, so why the hell are they costing people like ?10+ for a box of about 5? what even
ok
