When someone points out that sometimes birth control fails and the response is “then don’t have sex” I assume that person has a lackluster sex life. 🤷♀️

I've been on here for years and people will say they aren't having a lot of sex/no sex with their partner and then get shamed and people who get pregnant by accident are shamed. Can't win. I don't really assume that I just assume they've never had a scare or failed birth control or maybe their partner is snipped. I really don't love that argument I don't think its helpful.

I try not to engage with the obvious rage bait posts but ya know everyone has their days. I just find the “don’t have sex” so absolutely ridiculous. Women should be encouraged to enjoy sex! It’s not just for procreation.

I don't think you should have sex with someone you aren't willing to have a kid with. That's pretty much what's written on the tin of sex. My mom warned me from an early age about how fertile the women of my family were. Because I made the choice to not use bc/iud I pretty much used a condom or dealt with the likelihood of pregnancy with whomever was between my legs. Its not rocket science

There's only 2 absolute way or not getting pregnant we all know we take a chance having sex is no ones business to tell us how unless we ask. There alot of judgment on moms groups when we're all in the same situation of you break it all down

Why do u assume that. Personally I’m never thinking abt other pplz sex lives regardless of what comes out of their mouth cuz it ain’t my business and what ppl assume of mine jus solely based on what I say it their problem as well. Cuz only the ppl in the relationship are the ones who know abt their sex life. And if it’s lack luster or not is certainly not my problem so I jus don’t spend time thinking abt it 🤷🏾♀️
