Have Sex Standing Up

Source is the Fog Zone report at: http://www.thenationalcampaign.org/fogzone/default.aspx.

The Fog Zone report is from a nationally representative survey of 1,800 unmarried young adults ages 18-29 and is the first of its kind to focus in depth on the attitudes and behavior of both single men and women regarding pregnancy planning, contraception, and related issues. Also from the report:

Myths and misinformation about pregnancy and contraception are prevalent as are inflated fears about the possible side effects of contraception. For example: * Nearly half (44%) of those who have used birth control pills incorrectly believe that women need to take a break from the pill every few years.
* 18% of men think having sex standing up reduces the chances of pregnancy.
* 42% of men and 40% of women believe that the chance of getting pregnant within a year while using the pill is 50% or greater, despite research showing that the birth control pill is typically 92% effective.
* 28% of men incorrectly think wearing two condoms provides extra protection; in fact two condoms are more likely to break due to friction.
* 27% of women and 34% of men believe it is extremely or quite likely that using the pill or other hormonal methods of contraception will lead to a serious health problem like cancer, despite clinical evidence to the contrary.


Seriously.... I get questions from guys having sex that don't even know what an STD is. If you don't KNOW the logistics, don't do it. Once you do know, be responsible enough to avoid STDs and unplanned pregnancies.
If you hear a rumor about avoiding pregnancy that sounds a little crazy, it probably is. Research everything to make sure you're hearing it from a reliable source.
