Hey, this is Dan Savage, and you're listening to the Savage Love Podcast.

If you want to record a question for the podcast, the number is 206, 201, 2720.

Now, let's get right to your phone calls.

Hey, Dan. Hey Dan.

My girlfriend is going to be going on birth control, which means you're going to stop

using condoms.

And so I think this might be a good time to sit down with her and talk about what our options would be if she got pregnant because I don't feel

that I'm old enough or ready to have a kid yet, but I don't really know what her stance

on abortion is. And so I think it would be good to sit down now and talk about it while she's not

pregnant and while it's not like in the situation so we can sort of have a calm or

conversation about it but I was wondering if you think this is actually a good

conversation to have knack that might sort of open up a can of worms.

And also, if you do, how do you think it would be best to go about bringing up and talking about it?

Because it's a rather probably difficult subject, especially for a woman to talk to talk to a woman about.

I think it's good to sit down and have a talk about it now before she's pregnant.

You bet.

I also think it's a good idea not to stick your dick repeatedly into somebody you feel

like you can't talk to about the consequences of you sticking your dick into her

repeatedly.

One of those consequences, of course, being an unplanned pregnancy.
