Women have been convinced that they have a right to not be pregnant, regardless of how many times they happily lift their ankles up to the sky.

Your imagery is rather perjorative, IMO. Certainly lots of married women, faithful to their husbands, use oral contraceptives.

Married women who use the Pill have been convinced that sex need not have anything to do with procreation. When nature persists and demonstrates that even "protected" sex can cause pregnancy, these happily married and faithful women still demand that they have a right to not be pregnant.

No matter who she is, the woman who engages in sex (and the men who encourage it) with the demand that procreation will not happen is abusing her sexuality. Of course others disagree. But nature seems to back me up in this regard since so many people who "take precautions" end up pregnant. No one having sex has any right to think that pregnancy is impossible. We all know better. Shame on those who pretend otherwise - and then kill the babies that inconveniently result.

The leg raising example is really about the kids in high school and college who are encouraged to get their legs in the air as early as possible.

BAck to the article - women should know about this cancer risk when making their choice to "bop without consequences" - because there actually are consequences.
