BOTH parties to a pregnancy have a RESPONSIBILITY to ensure no baby is the result. The surest, most Godly way for unmarried couple is ABSTINENCE. You don't get pregnant by just thinking about it!
Unfortunately, we have inherited the trait of seeking to shirk responsibility from our first father. Adam chose not to intervene when Satan tempted 'the woman' (not yet named Eve until AFTER the Fall), shirking his duty to protect her from the temptation. Then, in Gen 3:11-12, look at what he said when God asked, "Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?” Adam's response was, “The woman you put here with me—she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.” He tried to shirk HIS responsibility for disobeying God and blaming the woman.
God designed us uniquely among all the animals, in His image. When we point the finger of blame, we should never forget that there are three fingers pointing back at us!
I never said, or meant imply “the male” was without blame. I was given my thoughts on why men are not interested in having children, or getting married for that matter. People want fun with no repercussions. It was a response that was I felt was pertinent to the title.
I appreciate your Biblical analysis, it could not have been better written. I agree with everything you wrote.
“And who is it that usually initiates sex, and is insistent and usually very persistent? The male. “
Not any more, boy are you out of touch.
