Sperm is sperm whether it is coming from one guy you are married to or 5 other guys you had a one night stand with.Why would that result in more pregnancies,especially with better education,free BC and legal access to abortion.

More sex = more abortions and it's not just married people having it or unmarried people sneaking off occasionally. And access to abortion doesn't prevent the pregnancy from happening.

Too bad the OP didn't add to the poll...if you have had an abortion, did anyone ever ask you if you were forced into it?
I'd bet the answer would be 100% Nos
Some statistics aren't worth the time it takes to post about them.

I am more and more convinced that anti-choice creeps are simply so consumed in jealousy that they talk in circles and never make sense.

They are so jealous of women who have lotsa fun sex, who enjoy sex and if they get pregnant simply take care of it like adults take care of their other problems.


That's it...there no real feeling for the poor "baaaaaaaaaaby" (because there isn't one!!)...it's just the thought that others are having some great SEX...and the anti-choicers don't even know what that is....


Women who have abortions don't need counseling but those dried up, frustrated anti-choicers sure do...

Ever heard of birth control? Works for me...

See, that's why we, as adults, are allowed to make our own decisions regarding such things. You keep your morality to guide your life and I will do the same for mine. So long as you don't try to shove your personal beliefs down my throat we have no problem with each other.

Yes, and they were victim to another malady as a result - post traumatic hemorroidal removal syndrome - we are busy organizing funerals for these wee cells.

More sex does not equal more abortions unless people don't have access to birth control.
