Every once in a while, I see an ad for this contraceptive patch one can wear for three weeks. It affixes to ones skin and provides the same protection as “the pill” without having to remember anything.
But here’s what gets me. Have you ever worn a band aid for several days, and seen how nasty, fuzzy and gunky those things get? Won’t the same thing happen if you wear one for THREE WEEKS?
What’s more, they show where one can wear it, and it’s basically on sexy places. So here’s Hotty McDermot, modeling the patch, and she’s got it just above her hip bone on her bikini line. She’s stroking it as it advertises sterility from the small of her back.
Now imagine one has the opportunity to get down with Hotty McDermot. I doubt the average shorty is going to be widely deterred by finding a nasty, festring gunk wad in Hotty McDermot’s pants, especially when she looks like that. But still, it makes one think.

You should really think about doing your research!

This patch is not made out of the same material as a band-aid, dear. As said in previous comment, you need to do a little more research.
If guys are offended by a patch, perhaps they should take a little more responsibility for handling birth control matters.

My girlfriend has been wearing the patch for some time now. As stated, it is not made out of the same material as a band-aid, it allows the skin to breathe and is comparable to a nicotine patch, which is also worn for A WEEK at a time.
The operative phrase is one week, in which the patch is applied to the skin (which can typically be anywhere) for a week and then replaced, and worn on a different patch of skin, for another week. The process is repeated, three weeks per month, while one week without the patch allows for normal menstruation.
At no point has her skin ever become red, irritated or “nasty, fuzzy or gunky” (which I believe are the words you used to describe it)upon patch removal. It can be worn in the shower, while swimming or at the gym. It does not come off or cause the skin to display any of the ill-effects you have described. It’s also super thin, flesh colored, barely noticable and much less cumbersome than a condom, which can get nasty and gunky.
So, now for the burn… perhaps if you could even “get some” in the first place, you wouldn’t be so concerned with the sexual responsibility of others.
