Friday I was killing some time, so I was reading the insert for my birth control. I always find it interesting to read the fun little user question and answer pages in product inserts. You always find all the common sense stuff in there that they know probably made the cut because they’re trying to make the product understandable for the lowest common denominator, also because at some point someone actually asked them these questions.

I use the ring for all my birth control needs, it’s effective, I don’t have to think about it and it’s no muss no fuss. It’s esentially a few inches in diameter and flexible, you get it in place and leave it there for three weeks. Easy enough. One of the questions though in the product manual made me giggle. “can it get lost inside me”? Um, obviously you’ve never had a big enough vibrator or sexual partner if you are of the opinion that something could just get lost inside you. It is not a big black hole in there, things don’t just go missing, or dissapear into some giant void. Nor can things get out of there and start roaming willy nilly around the rest of your body.

If you actually think that something, anything larger than say a pin could get in there and get lost you should forefit the right to have sex.
