    That’s not at all what i said, or at least not what i meant. Two people meet, women pulls out condom, man says, “it’s ok, I’m on the gel.”. It’s exactly the same as “I’m on the pill,” or shot or whatever. It’s been my experience that men were fairly likely to just say ok, but i think women would be more questioning of it. Of course that doesn’t take into account stds…

      Yeah, so again - rape. Lying about being on the pill is just that. Lying about being on the gel would be exactly the same. It’s all about trust - don’t get into bed with someone who you cannot trust. Gender has nothing to do here. There are people poking holes in the condoms, there are people lying about contraception (either pill or getting snipped). A new type of it doesn’t change anything.
