| Because condoms aren't the only form of birth control, and if both you and your partner have been tested for STD's and are both clear, then they're not necassary. However, saying that, they're the most effective way of preventing pregnancy and I wouldn't have sex without one. It's not worth the risks :-/ |

My boyfriend used a condom and I still got pregnant. There is no "safe sex"
??????? How? i know they are not hundred percent. but did it break? Is there a safe kind? and If it does break and you know cum went in... is there any Steps you can take?? 
I don't know about her specific situation, but for your 2nd question the condom breaks or cum/precum enters her she can take the morning after pill to prevent pregnancy (kind of like a boost of birth control pills, but in a healthier format). Should be taken ASAP but can be used up to 120 hours after sex. 
No, 72 hours.
http://www.plannedparenthood.org/health-topics/emergency-contraception-morning-after-pill-4363.htm Actually it's now shown to be somewhat effective for up to 5 days although of course 3 is MUCH better and as soon as possible is what you're aiming for. 
My PP leaflet says 72 hours o__O |

| Ideally if you don't want to get pregnant, both sides should be using protection. Condom + Birth control pill/patch is about 99.9997% effective. |

Apparently, if we are to believe in the Bible, not even abstinence is 100% effective. Goddamn life. Having sex is like driving a car. You'll never be completely safe, but if you're smart, you'll probably avoid collisions. |

| I can't get pregnant. In taking the risk of not using a condom, I at least am responsible for me and my partner. It's not like there's going to be some child created in a fucked up situation. If I fuck up, I get in trouble for it, no one else. That said, there are only select times when I don't use a condom, and it's for very particular reasons and I do it with trust. Except for that one time last year that I was convinced I had HIV for 3 months until I could get tested.. oii. |

It's safer than no using any protection. 
Most definitely. The chances of getting pregnant while using a condom are very slim. It happens, but very rarely. 
Oh, it's most definitely better than using nothing at all. It's better to use a condom, or birth control. I'm just saying that neither protects you 100% from pregnancy or STDs. |
