I think what was so creepy was and apparently still is your unnatural interest in women’s reproductive activities. Just Eeeew! :-)
The discussion , one brought up by you, was about the fact that you tend to believe that 99% effective means completely effective. It simply does not. Such is the case with the ignorant woman in story in the Harvard Crimson.
The women says that the type of birth control she and her ex-boyfriend used made becoming pregnant one in a million. Not hardly. More like 1 in 100 or greater.
You actually seemed pretty snarky about the ease of finding a 99% effective form of birth control unwittingly showing your ignorance as to the semi-truck hole in your entire argument. SHE WAS USING 99% Effective BIRTH CONTROL!
Had this young Harvard undergraduate realized that ALL birth control fails at some time and at a certain measurable and verifiable percentage, she may not have been in the position of murdering her unborn child.
The reason why the sex lives of others are important to us is because we as a greater society are forced to PAY FOR THEIR MISTAKES! Either through increased taxes to pay for their bastard children or through increased fees, insurance premiums and productivity loss to pay for their abortions and care for their bruised psyches.
We also care that we live in a society that is so Pagan as to condone and even champion abortion which for any rational person is child murder.
So we have a vested interest in the story and in the downward spiral of today's sexually liberated society. We have a vested interest in GETTING THE FACTS STRAIGHT!
I am by no means a prude. I have NO PROBLEM with realistic sex education. However, we should be telling our children the truth. Sex feels great. It is supposed to feel good. It is also incredibly dangerous to be sexually adventurous or active sexually AT ALL outside of a committed relationship. It is dangerous to your mental health, your physical health and the health of the greater society.
It is DAMN DANGEROUS even in a committed relationship! Particularly to your pocket book, as MOST women will become pregnant. Almost always at the most inconvenient times. I KNOW THAT FOR A FACT! I have five sons.
I have a vested financial interest in my children to the tune of hundreds of thousands dollars, so far. Unfortunately I also have a vested interest in many an unwed mother and their many bastard children through the hundreds of thousands of dollars I have paid in taxes SO FAR. Unlike my own children, I don't even get the fun of helping to make their children. I don't even know them, I just get the bills!
Telling someone it is safe to engage in sexual intercourse EVER without the possibility of becoming pregnant makes you an ignorant fool to the tune of hundreds of thousands of times per year. Actually an average of 444,360 times per year. That is the average amount of abortions performed on women every year who also where under the misconception that they where using birth control that was completely effective. UH OH!
Nothing is more creepy than a dismembered and aborted fetus. I suggest you google a couple images. It might put you off your food, but it is a very enlightening exercise.
