Oh, puh-leeze.

Has the author of this screed never heard of contraceptives? Or does he just think that women are too stupid to use them?

He may be trying to convey a sense of compassion towards women with this, but he fails. He communicated that he thinks women are sex objects, and that he thinks human life is less valuable than his personal pursuit of physical pleasure. This guy doesn’t give a squat about women.

In fact, according to Planned Parenthood’s own statistics, the majority of women undergoing abortions were contraceptive at the time they got pregnant.

Actually, there is little reason to think that is true. Planned Parenthood is the worst source of information about contraceptive failure. Because of the stigma associated with abortion, spreading the myth that women only have abortions because their contraceptive failed is a lot more lucrative than pointing out the truth that most abortions happen because women didn't bother using birth control.

I have known several women who have had abortions, and have read accounts by dozens more. Not one of them was using contraceptives.

yes, you’re right, just wow.

I have an idea... although I can’t claim it originated with me, maybe God had the idea first, but maybe these men could wait and have sex inside a marriage. What an alien concept these days, and extremely unpopular.

Hmm. Perhaps but my experience is different. Most acquaintances & coworkers who contracept have gotten pregnant anyway. Some have kept the baby, some not. I work at a women’s hospital that does late term abortions. Most of those patients admit to being on the pill or Depo shots.

Regardless, I believe the contraceptive mentality leads to abortion & certainly leads to the objectification if women by jackasses like the writer of this piece. Your above post in which you stated that this man dosent give a squat about women was on the money!

If it were true that most women who use contraceptives get pregnant and abort anyway, then we’d see a sky-high abortion rate among married women, who are the most active sexually. We don’t. Also, the abortion rate varies too much across different races for contraceptive failure to account for abortion—if the problem were contraceptives, there would be no racial difference in the abortion rates. Many women who are aborting may be reluctant to admit they weren’t using any contraceptives, because the stigma is less if they claim contraceptive failure. But if you listen to women describing having an abortion, and you do not ask about contraceptive use—you’re more likely to get the truth. If they don’t specifically mention using it without being asked, they weren’t using it.

You can live the ideal, but you can’t change human history. And human history has shown that sex outside of marriage has always been since Adam was cast from the Garden. I just can’t abide some little worm demanding that unlimited abortion be available just in case some woman has the poor sense to have sex with him and gets pregnant. He just doesn’t want to MAN up to his responsibility.

Now that “Plan B” is plan a one night hook ups should be easy. They will be selling “No Consequnces” shots at Starbucks for that morning after.

If a BRO is so worried about getting a girl pregnant, he could always engage in a homosexual BROmance with one of his BROs. Y’know the BRO motto, “BROS before HOES”.

It’s the liberal way.
