+--------- Most Bizarre Methods of Contraception ----------+ Back in 23-70 AD, Roman nobleman Pliny the Elder believed that if you took two small worms from the body of a certain species of spider and attached them -- wrapped in deer skin, mind you -- to a woman's body before sunrise, she would not conceive. It was believed in ancient times that if a woman spat three times into a frog's mouth she would not conceive for a year. Supposedly, a pebble clasped in the hand during coitus would also stop conception. St. Albert the Great (1193-1280) advised women to eat bees as an effective contraception procedure. Aetios of Amida (fl. 527-565) suggested that a man should wash his penis in vinegar or brine before having sex and that a woman should wear a cat's testicle in a tube across her navel to avoid contraception. ***
