> Because of the hormonal disruption, a victim of a real rape is unlikely to ovulate. Ergo, no child will be conceived.

> If a rape victim has just ovulated a day or two before a rape, it is possible that conception will take place. However I believe it is this is, in fact, very rare.

Got some actual facts om your side, or are you just winging it?

You could “believe” invisible purple storks prevent “legitimate rape” pregnancy, but that wouldn’t make it true.

Honestly, people.

And a politician that doesn’t have a solid and defensible message about this hot button issue has no business being in politics. Never give the MSM the bullet to shoot you with.

Winging it?

Try this for size:

"... one of the most important reasons why a rape victim rarely gets pregnant... is psychic trauma. Every woman is aware that stress and emotional factors can alter her menstrual cycle. To get pregnant and stay pregnant, a woman’s body must produce a very sophisticated mix of hormones. Hormone production is controlled by a part of the brain which is easily influenced by emotions. There’s no greater emotional trauma that can be experienced by a woman than an assault rape. This can radically upset her possibility of ovulation, fertilization, implantation and even nurturing of a pregnancy." [emphasis mine]

That quote is from Dr. John C. Wilkie, MD, OB/GYN

How 'bout you? Are you an ob/gyn by any chance?
