Ended up being far far more than just one week per month... And, after about a year, she was pregnant with our 4th kid, after some 7 years of me telling her that I didn't want any more kids. And, of course, by now, my opinion on what to do meant jack shit.
So... Suffice to say that that doesn't work.
Still... Condoms worked well for a number of years.
Not ideal, I agree, but good enough.
Oh, come, now... How does the pill change anything?
Then it does become a moot point.
The problems begin when this distinction is not made clear to the masses. Like it wasn't in Africa and South America, where many people have multiple partners and, because of some anti-condom church based propaganda, AIDS soared to great heights.
Did she have a little machine that recorded her cycle, her temperature, and her cervical mucus? Those tend to be really reliable. My sister used it for years.
Not a machine... but an app on her phone.
