I think the whole point of the OP is that one day the MC gets morning sickness, realises she's pregnant and wonders wtf? What if a spurned guy masterbates onto one of her tampons? Or she has some reality-sex-toy that ejaculates and he fills it himself?
The tampon angle goes along with the condom angle, they don't really exist anymore due to looted pharmacies etc... Also, live sperm is only viable outside a controlled environment (correct me if I'm wrong) about 15min before it becomes unable to fertilize, so that would be very hit or miss. Same thing with the sex toy.
okey, so - penetrative sex: oui or non? The last thing I'd like is to sound homophobic, but: there is absolutely no freakin' natural way for a human female to get pregnant without a human male, so if your primary concern is for her to remain 100% politically defined homosexual, you better ditch the pregnancy thing all together...
Sounds like you know the answer. She's gonna have to have good ole tab-A in slot-B old-fashioned fornication. It's up to you how to get the pieces together.
That's not my primary concern. It's more like JJ said, trying to get "Tab A" into "Slot B" without it seeming cheesy or thrown in just for the hell of adding another erotic scene when there's already at least two XXX rated lady on lady romps already displayed. Misses her period actually.
this is getting silly... if whenever someone comes up with a solution you refer back to an undisclosed part of your book which doesn't allow the solution, ie: pharmacies are all closed then you need to work out your own answers - I think this thread has been exhausted
I saw on TV once a documentary (?) in which they told this story: It was during the American Civil War. A soldier was taking cover from enemy fire behind a farmhouse. One of the enemy outflanked him and shot him, and the bullet hit him in the scrotum and tore off one of his testicles. The bullet then went through the thin wall of the farmhouse, where it hit a young woman smack dab in her ovaries. The bullet had some of his sperm on it, and she got pregnant. The soldier later found out what happened and married the young woman after the war. They had more children after that, but none looked as much like the soldier as the one that resulted from that first, very violent, pregnancy. As John Fogerty said, I know it's true, 'cause I saw it on TV. You could use that, if you want.
He got shot in the nuts and they still worked for years after? Hmmm.... I think I saw that guy... on Dr.Phil... or was it Gerry Springer?
Unfortunately, the 'bullet pregnancy' is just a myth. I do agree with erebh though, I think we've exhausted every plausible, or non-cheesy, non-sci-fi, method of getting your MC knocked up. Time to get writing! ...or have her find a baby. I don't know!
Eeeww! Who would ever use a tampon or a sex toy that wasn't clean? That ain't happening. And I can't imagine a dildo or vibrator gains anything whatsoever from an ejaculation feature. Nope, nice try but an orgasm is not about the sperm.
Sperm can live a good 5 days in the right conditions (generally we are talking about the birth canal and the fallopian tubes). But those conditions are very specific. Drying, the wrong pH, the wrong salinity, any number of things will mess with the little swimmers.
who mentioned orgasms? But this is all yours for 64.99 inc p&p plus you get a free gift! http://www.lovehoney.com/product.cfm?p=8657
That's fascinating, but show me the sales. If dildos aren't about the orgasm, what are they about? However, since you linked to real ones, someone could play a mean trick on the woman and she might not know about it until later. What a clever plot twist.
Duh. That's why I quote the John Fogerty line. If you'd heard the song, you'd understand how I meant the post to be taken. The line means "I don't actually believe this." Oh well. We don't share much in common, culturally, I guess.
