Re: Contraception au natural.
Right thats why every place I have looked on the web so far when typing in "contraception effectiveness" Or "Contraception failure rate" or a number of other key words, all the results I have seen so far agree including the statistics of planned parenthood.
I think you're using a different statistic than Crash. From Planned Parenthood:
Of 100 women whose partners use condoms inconsistently or imperfectly, 15 will become pregnant in the first year of use. Only two will become pregnant if condoms are used perfectly
if used properly condoms are 98% effective at stopping pregnancy, if used "inconsistently or imperfectly" condoms are only 85% effective at stopping pregnancy. It seems clear that Crash is arguing using the "if used properly" stat and you have something else.

Just a monkey in a long line of kings.
If "elitist" just means "not the dumbest motherfucker in the room", I'll be an elitist!
