About EarthMother
About me:
I have worked in social services (nonprofits) for over two decades. At this point, there is little I've not heard, and therefore, I am able to give pretty grounded advice.
I like to write, and I'm currently working on my first novel. I created a 5-week workshop series for midlife women; and, I also have a midlife advice column in a small SF Bay Area paper.
Feel free to ask me whatever is on your mind &/or in your heart. I'm here, just ask!
I wish you well,
Earth Mother

ok, if you read the back of a mountain dew bottle it says like alot of stuff about what its made of, and one of the things its made of is yellow 5, now i heard that yellow 5 kills sperm cells. but i also heard alot of other stuff that is suppoust to kill sperm cells that wasnt ture but i heard this is really really ture. so does yellow 5 kill sperm cells and makes it a less chance to get a girl preggy?
Dear Mountain Dew,
Cultural myths continue from generation to generation, no matter what. In my day, it was Coke & Pepsi, so please don't let these uninformed facts replace common sense when it comes to birth control!
The numbers of babies born to youth under 18 years of age is absolutely staggering, so please don't add to these statistics! Do the responsible thing and use a condom (for HIV protection too), and have your partner use birth control gel or foam, if she's not using anything. Both of these products can be purchased at your local grocery or drug store.
If you are interested, you could do an internet search on birth control methods which would answer any questions about which methods are the most effective, etc. You could also visit (or call) your local Planned Parenthood Clinic for more information. At any rate, if you are having sex, do the responsible thing and USE BIRTH CONTROL.
Take Care,
Earth Mother
