My older sister and I shared a room when we were young... one night she explained to me that there were actually people in Hollywood (apparently ONLY in Hollywood) that has sex for fun and not just when they wanted a baby! imagine... she went on to explain they managed this by wrapping the man's penis in Saran wrap and a rubber band. for a long time i thought only people in Hollywood had sex without a baby and when I was much older and learned of condoms I naturally thought that whole Hollywood-Saran wrap thing must have really caught on!
