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.

No contraceptive is 100% foolproof, so using a backup is always a good thing.

Hormonal contraceptive efficacy is in the 99.8X% range. Using another method on top of it makes a difference so small that it'd be within the margin of error of any attempt to measure it.

This is like saying seat belts aren't 100% foolproof, so you should always also wear a helmet while driving a car.

And seriously, if the friction is the only thing that make you enjoy sex

Friction is the only way 99.9% of people will ever orgasm, and good luck finding anyone who'd say they'd prefer if they didn't orgasm during sex.
Seeking pleasurable physical sensation is not equivalent to not enjoying a sexual encounter without it. This is like telling someone who says they prefer pepperoni on their pizza that they don't actually like pizza, just pepperoni.

Probably not the best example to use. The most common injuries you get in a car crash while wearing a seat belt would be prevented by wearing a helmet. In fact, race car drivers are required to wear a helmet and a neck brace as essential safety gear along with their five point harness.

Haha ya when I read that helmet comment, my first thought was a helmet would definitely help.

You're never going to convince everyone to wear a helmet when driving though.

Per point 1: Not true. Some dudes cum just by being given a compliment from the opposite sex. Also there is a pretty huge group of people who are into orgasm denial. What do you think a cock cage is for?
