I never claimed it was anything but my opinion Platapus. Nor do I particularly care whether you or anyone else thinks it's a valid opinion or not.

Good post. You are right, and I stand corrected.
It's good to get chased back to the United States Constitution for an occasional a re-read.

Oh and lastly never ever EVER rely on condoms as the sole method of birth control, they are one of the least effective methods out there and the failure rate is very high.
Neon, you sure?

Just done a quick wiki and typical usage puts a 15 to 20% failure rate. Perfect usage is down to 2%.

I suppose there will always be the guys who stick them over their thumbs or bananas.

You still haven't said it wasn't anything more than your opinion. Quite the opposite, actually, from your repeated insinuations.
