Nice try. Men face all the various health risks that women do when entering into hook-up situations.

Some men must not agree with you, if they balk at using barrier contraception.

As regards pregnancy... with the possible exception of street prostitutes, nearly all women know at least enough about a guy to be able to find him if and when a pregnancy should occur.

She finds him...then what? If he didn't want to stick around and there was no talk of a pregnancy, do you think they'll want anything to do with that problem, when all he wanted was hit and quit?

It isn't the guys fault if she can't make peace with a termination. And she should know better than to be surprised if he is angry if she decides to keep it and nail him for child support.

It IS the guy's fault if he played games and refused to do HIS PART (wear protection) to protect the couple from what I would call a tragedy. Who wants to have a child for a random stranger. No one I know of.

I didn't say men shouldn't or do not wear condoms. They do. I just offered that a lot of women's attitudes regarding condoms sucks. Luckily such women are balanced out by other kinds.

Oh, given that women bear the brunt of the consequences should something go wrong in the hookup, so I don't think their attitudes should be judged THAT harshly. Men want to pretend the stakes are equal, but they aren't. The stakes are only equal if the man agrees to share in dealing with the fallout. That's not true of the guy who came in, got what he wanted and had no intention of ever seeing the woman again.

What do morals have to do with any of this?

Or self respect?

Nope.... Not everyone subscribes to your morals.... they vary by region, change over time, vary by culture, and by individual.

It's easy for dudes to talk about women getting on a variety of birth control, but they all (ALL) have side effects, and none of them will prevent STD/STI transmission. So even though wrapping it up makes your boner sad, a woman is completely in the right to insist on condoms with a FWB/ONS.
Yeah, I don't get why on earth an IUD would come up as a magic bullet in a convo that includes preventing STD transmission.

But I couldn't shake the feeling that when he walked out that door, he had decided he wasn't going to look and he wasn't coming back. I just felt it and I can't understand why. Why get that close to it and not just go find a condom and come back? Why haven't I heard from him?
He might have felt stupid too, perhaps he wasn't anymore prepared than you.....You didn't have a condom either. And, now he has acted so stupid that he can't recover....And, seriously...You are better off. Why dwell...obviously he was not the right guy.

She needs self respect, she was lucky he didnt hit her or give her

Has'nt her parents taught her to respect herself.

Save sex for marriage not as a pastime enjoyment that immature sexpots play.
Try to be moral human beings for a change
all you bring is pain upon yourselves in the long run.
in other words, "grow up".

So I'm 43 and never been married. So I should be a virgin?

Give me a break. That wouldn't make me grown up.

Not everyone wants to, or is going to get married (personally I'd like to).

I do respect myself. That's why I chose not to engage in sex with him without protection.
