Do Cambodian women know about ovulation cycles?

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO.

You know what I called the last guy that tried to use the "rhythm method" of ovulation cycles to avoid pregnancy?

Dad.

Try them with simple planetary cosmology for a potentially rewarding opportunity to educate.

Be pepared for shock and amazement when they get it.

Surprisingly ignorant of fertility, and basic biology and anatomy. Mine didn't even know she had a urethra and a vagina and wondered how a girl could pee with a tampon inside.

It seems something endemic in Khmer people that they do not have the basic curiosity to learn these kind of things, and often do not weight it enough to retain that info. In some ways its kind of nice too, innocent and light hearted.

They are not wrong about their suspicion with the pill, I have always distrusted it too.

Wow mate your constant whining about your one friend is probably funny as hell if you're 5 years old. Has anyone laughed at this tiring joke? Do you want to just start writing like normal people instead?

If she eats mints and abstains from sex she will not get pregnant.

Or even an aspirin will prevent pregnancy as long as it is held firmly between the knees..............
