Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Yes, I understand that, and tweaked my comment to make that more clear.
Frankly, the fact that we're able to temporarily turn off fertility at will at all is extraordinary, tradeoffs or not.
I of course can understand a woman who can't find a method that works for her wanting her male partner to use a condom if she doesn't want to get pregnant. Personally, as a male in the position of her partner, I would sympathize, but would rather have non-penetrative sexual contact, or none at all, rather than presentative sex with a condom, because they take the majority of the pleasure out of the act, for me.
