It sure as hell kept my high-school girlfriends from getting pregnant!

My mother-in-law told her daughters to hold a nickel between their knees on
dates.

I think my beliefs were influenced by my Dad. He wasn't particularly
religious, so that wasn't a factor.
When I became old enough to notice and start dating girls, he had a little
talk with me. It wasn't the classic "birds and the bee's story .... hell we
all knew *that* one in the 6th grade. His talk was more about controlling
natural desires and being responsible for the results if I didn't. Legal
abortion wasn't an option at that time (pre-Roe v. Wade) . He simply
encouraged me to consider the ramifications to the girl, and to me, and how
it could affect the rest of our lives.

He wasn't progressive enough to hand me my first condom, but made sure I
knew what they were. He also strongly insisted that I always have respect
for women and if I ever didn't, he would personally kick the **** out of me.

At 6'4'' and 225 lbs, I didn't argue with him.

My father and mother told me to be sure I didn't get any girls pregnant.
Then they explained in detail how to use condoms. I was no older than 13.

The nickel between the knees was effective. The only problem was on our
first date.
As we walked into the movie theater, I thought the future Mrs.E. was
handicapped.

Harry's problem was fighting off the older girls who wanted to seduce
the younger guy.

In my school, the younger girls always wanted to date the older guys.
