Once or so, my boyfriend and I don't use condoms because we're both clean and I'm on birth control. We had sex and I realized I hadn't taken my pill the night before.

Scared me to death.

I hope everyone answers "Never" to this...

OK I am in a longterm and committed relationship so we always have unprotected sex (aka no condom) but I am on the pill and take it at the same time every day. SO I said more than 20 times, but I don't think I am being unsafe because we have both been tested and I am extremely diligent about taking my pill...he also pulls out so I think we are fine.

Nope.

I didn't vote because I wasn't sure how to answer. I mean, does it count as unprotected sex when you're on the pill and are in a committed long term relationship? I mean, I've NEVER had sex outside of a committed relationship and without some form of birth control, so I don't think I'm being unsafe by any means.

I've never had sex, however, after reading DearSugar, I KNOW when I do have sex, I will NEVER have unprotected sex.

Also Clareberrys, pulling out is just as bad as if he ejaculates in you, isn't it?

DC Roamer....did you forget about people trying to get pregnant. If everyone answers never to having unprotected sex then how will the population continue. LOL

I am also in a longterm committed relationship. I had unprotected sex a LOT in 2007!

A whole damn lot! But I think it's ok, because we're married and TRYING to get pregnant!!!

As a married woman, I'm not really that concerned about it. While I don't want to be pregnant at this point, it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world.

Uhmm.... well, I don't use condoms with my boyfriend, but I'm on BC and we were both tested before sleeping together... I almost voted 8-10 but decided to vote never???

I'm on the Nuva ring, he's sterile, and we're both STD-free. I think it's ok.

Kristin - no, you are more likely to get pregnant if he ejaculates inside of you, rather than outside of you, there is some sort of precum, but I think I'm fine since I am on the pill...pulling out is better than nothing at all

the only sex I had all year was unprotected, so I'm not voting. It wasn't "unsafe" as it's with my husband of 7 1/2 years. And we have a daughter together, so we had to have unprotected sex to get pregnant with her, right?

I am on the pill and my boyfriend of two years and I are both clean and committed, so I am not worried about disease.

well I was pregnant for most of the year.....so ALOT

been with the same guy....and we're tested..but i ran out of birth control for 2 weeks..

tons of times...but I at least made sure he was clean and that i was on the pill... but i don't think I will do that with subsequent bf's...

I clicked on more than 10, but it's with my fiance of 3 yrs hehe but we may want to change that to 1,000 hehehe

Why would you make your BF pull out if you're on the pill??? Poor guy!!!

I'm in a long term committed relationship. We use the "pull and pray" method. We aren't aiming for kids right now but it would not be the end of the World.

married. so ...yeah

I'm on the pill and my boyfriend and I have been togetehr for a year soooo everytime we ahve sex he doesn't use a condom...so like a million hahaha But we usually have sex once if not twice a day so times that by 365!

Dear, this poll was a bit confusing! I took it to mean that if you are in a relationship and on birth control, then yes, that is protected sex. So my answer is never.

But i can see how others interpreted it as "no condoms = unprotected sex" and since they are in committed relationships, then yes, they have had "unprotected sex." I guess this one applied to the single gals huh?

Lots and lots.... but my honey and I are "clean" and we're not against getting pregnant if it happens. So, we don't really see the point in using it.

my boyfriend and i dont use condoms, im on the pill and we have been together for 2 years, so we just go and get our check ups every year to make sure everything is in order!

I didn't answer this one either cause none of the responses were appropriate. Yes we had tons of sex but I don't feel that its unsafe if I'm on the pill, in a committed relationship and we've both been tested.

Technically, we are using protection because I am on the pill, and we do use the pull-out method; we just don't use a condom.

I have been with my boyfriend for 4 years, and we are both tested every year and have never cheated on each other.

The odds are in our favor.

And Karlotta, the pull-out method is just a back up for those of us who want to be extra careful but don't want to use a condom. Birth control is so sketchy from time to time that a person needs a back up method. If you don't want to use condoms, then I think that the pull out method, if everyone agrees to use it, is perfectly fine.

have never had sex before so i dont think it is right to have unprotected sex at this time.

More than 10, but I can't vote. "I know how unsafe it was"?? I'm married, have been for 11 years, and have kids.

All the time LOL..... I've been happily married for 8 yrs and we have children so if I should end up pregnant it's all good.

no glove no love. too many people close to me have become preggers on accident

Where's the option of everytime, but with one partner? I never used condoms once this year cause I've been with the same guy for over four years!

I can't believe how many people have had unprotected sex. Have you never seen House?!?! Partners are always having affairs and getting STIs, better to be safe than sorry!!

What's wrong if you are in a committed relationship, both of you are STD-free and the guy is unable to make children?

Never and it's because I don't want another kid yet! I'm married and have been for 6 years...
