 Sometimes I see conversations here I feel like I should not be privy to.

 Ohhh really…like where? 😜 
 Today it was a natural family planning conversation being had exclusively by men. I’m pretty sure the only one in the conversation who truly understood the concept was a guy I follow. I briefly thought about imparting information, then thought Nah. 
 Can’t you just hold the egg back by flexing your abs tightly? 
 🤣😂🤣

 Sometimes its just not worth the energy

 Is this what you tell your wife? 
 Ti's surely. 
 This is the way 🫡 
 More and more these days, I’m just walking away.

 "Natural family planning"?, Not really sure what this means but I assume it means women are incredible, and we men just talk out our asses to compensate. 
 Big if true! 😂 
 NFP is tracking your cycle and fertility indicators to either prevent or know the best time to conceive. It can be difficult to do correctly. High risk of human error. 
 Well, I suppose it's a good conversation to have regardless of how it happens. "A" for effort  
 Not when some contributors see women as mere receptacles for their emissions. A for effort to the person I follow trying to do some education amongst his sex. His last comment seemed like he’d also thrown up his hands. 
 Ya, that's a tough one. I see much of this type online, not so much in the real world. There are always outliers, throwing up your hands and blocking is probably for the best online and off. 
 It is almost exclusively when one person I follow wades into a conversation trying to impart information or reason.
