"Pulling out" has not been proven to be a reliable birth control method, even in that situation.

It's also quite shocking how little research there seems to be on the subject.

You're right on the second point - we were all always taught that precum can contain sperm. It can...if the guy hasn't urinated after ejaculating the last time he did it. Not all that long ago someone had the bright idea to actually test it and found no sperm otherwise.

It's certainly not a foolproof method but the success rates are up there with condoms, when both are used properly.

planned parenthood lists it as not much riskier than condoms.
