I had strep in college. They asked if I was pregnant. I said, "Not unless immaculate conception* is still a thing."

But I had a friend who didn't disclose that she was sexually active AND College Health didn't tell her that antibiotics could fuck up your birth control pills, so THAT went badly. So I sort of see their point.

As a bi person married to a person of the apparent opposite gender, coming out is always an option. I usually refer to said person as "my partner" or "my spouse", because I think that even that stuttering moment of ambiguity is useful toward queering the world.

*That's not actually what immaculate conception means, but it's the popular conception of it, and it always bothers me. Immaculate conception has to do with Mary's state of non-sinfulness.... er, anyway.
