    And as long as the non-committal penis meets up with a trusting vagina, it's okay, right?

    Are women "happier" when they spend three days wondering if they are/not pregnant? Even if you consider killing the child an option, there is still a few days of pain and discomfort and that nagging feeling of guilt present for the rest of your life (unless of course you happen to be a psychopath)...and if no pregnancy, that nasty pain and discharge that comes along every couple months....waiting for half-of-forever to discover some otherwise dormant bug will liven up your social life (not to mention make streching your mouth difficult. Yep, I can see where women (and men) would prefer unprotected sex. Give me more of that!

    Unprotected means no condom. Tip: there are many other forms of birth control.

    And if she is on the pill, that does not protect from an STD.

    Unprotected obviously means to you what it does not mean to others...unprotected goes beyond a little rubber between fluids; it goes to the heart of the matter: do I feel that this person is going to be responsible for the consequences of what we are about to do (this applies to both parties). Disease is just one of the problems, there is a potential for a new life to raise or destroy, there is the emotional and physical issue of trust (for both parties), there is the issue of "will I regret this decision tomorrow, next week, in nine months?", if in nine moths something decided to pop out, will he be there (kind hard for her not to be there)? Unprotected goes far beyond the rubber dam used to retain fluids.

    *shrug* I am protected from getting pregnant by having implanon inserted and I am protected from getting infections because I only sleep with one man in a monogamous relationship and I trust him. I still call it "unprotected sex".

    How many people really become "committed", I wonder? As long as the "committed" penis meets a "committed" vagina - it works out, for how ever long that is.

    so what ? at long as they are tested, and the viruses incubations are past, it might last only 3 months, but they don't need stds protection.

    I was with my ex 3 years, so it was 2 1/2 year of "unprotected sex". it counts

    "correlation does not equal causation." If the study actually said that unprotected sex makes you happier, healthier, and sleep better in it's abstract, then I would say it's a junk study, blinded by a scientific bias. These women preferred unprotected sex, but did they also have a happy devoted relationship and were on hormone pills that changed their endocrine system. The group that used condoms was separated into promiscuous and not promiscuous. They didn't divide them into, on birth control, or in long term relationship. If they're on birth control, their endocrine system is a little different than another women's. If their in a devoted long-term relationship they would likely be happier. No scientific study would say that and expect to be accepted, but a journalist might.

    I guess so until the clinic says "Good news is, your not pregnant.... but..." or they say "Good news is you are pregnant... but...." Either way I ain't buying it!!

    Unprotected; that is, if the man is clean (as we assume the Woman is) and there is no need for protection. I'm sure it's a higher quality of sexual experience when it's done naturally, unrestricted by the clinical sense of artificial barrier that the condom imposes upon the Act. This is not to say that I favor the transmission of diseases; only that I honor the Act of Sex between two clean and consenting partners to be a spiritually higher and sensually more fulfilling form of sexual experience.

    The ONE time I had unprotected sex it turned my partner into a raging, psychotic maniac for 9 months... And a complete and total control freak for the rest of her life.

    I wouldnt say happier but ppl seem not to mind when they have unprotected sex. I agree if you are married or living with your partner but if you are not you really never know whats up.Better be safe than sorry.

    We should protect our selfs but some ppl seem to like it unprotected.

    not exactly saying i support it or it's a smart idea (unless you're trying to get pregnant of course!) but i've heard this before in other studies. that sperm is a natural antidepressant & also releases hormones in both partners bodies that explain why you usually get sleepy or relaxed. it's a stress reliever legitimately. the hormone is similar (or the same) as the one that is released famously after you eat Turkey at Thanksgiving, weird example i know but that's all i can think of :)

    I find other ways to have fun and have intimate relationship. Maybe my vote shouldn't count on this one...due to my age
