Years ago in Army medic training, this is exactly what we were taught by physicians, that the odds of a pregnancy starting in such a trauma were much less than consensual sex.
For the past few weeks, I have felt that only Akins and I were aware of this.
Of course, the term “legitimate” rape means back-seat car intercourse, but the word “legitimate” has given the libtards something to hang their hats on.
So, “legitimate” rape is a lot less traumatic than “forcible” rape, such as Bill Clinton forced on Juanita Broaddrick IS traumatic.
And yet this sexual pig is feted by the perverted Democrats as a hero worth $500,000 per speech, totally ignoring his rape charge and openly sexual aggression on Paula Jones and innumerable women in his disgusting career.
How anyone can cling for any reason to the “D”emocrat party is beyond me.
What is depressing is that millions of Americans would read what Akin said, and because of that vote for Claire McCaskill instead of an otherwise very conservative voting Akin. Or, because of what Akin said, decide to vote for Barack Obama instead of Mitt Romney for President. I know the American voter is butt stupid on the average, (look what we have for a President) but this is depressing.
I had a similar recollection, except that it came from a PBS (I think) special from around 1980 where they showed internal videos taken from inside a woman during intercourse. They postulated on the program that there were physiological responses that occurred during the consentual event (specifically climax) that increased the likelihood of fertilization. This implies, therefore, that rape would be less likely to result in pregnancy. I've been living with this concept, true or false, for over 30 years as a result of that program.
