From personal experience I know it is true. I made the mistake one time of getting involved with a woman without getting to know her very well first. He goal was to get pregnant so she would be eligible for welfare and the job training benefits. After I got to know her a little better I discovered that she had the timing of her ovulation charted on the calendar and timed events to maximize the chance of pregnancy. Once she was pregnant she had no interest in a relationship. The only saving grace from my perspective was shortly after she told me she was pregnant and what her plans were she had a miscarriage. The momentary pleasure of getting laid twice was not worth the subsequent agony of worrying what kind of a monster such a woman would raise and with the way our legal system is currently structured I would almost assuredly have been limited to occasional visitation and paying child support.

One of the consequencs of stupid behavior.

If I was making the laws, women would be 100% responsible for any babies they have, unless they are married to the father. Marriage implies a contract to help support the children; "getting laid" doesn't. Take away the welfare and the forced child support, and you'd see a lot of irresponsible young women suddenly figuring out how not to get pregnant.
