She should take care of the kid.

Better yet, both you and her should not try to get her pregnant if you aren't prepared to deal with a child.

Wait until she finishes her education and then marry her.

Then you can get her pregnant.

Correct (although some people who are generally responsible can make one irresponsible decision). And irresponsible people shouldn't be having babies, but they will be having sex... again, you need to face and deal with REALITY.

That is why we use BC, but if an "oops" happens then she would have to have an abortion so she could finish school.

Yes indeed, TRY not to get pregnant. But if you do and you can't take care of it don't make it anyone elses problem. You talk as if people are getting pregnant on purpose so they can go have a fun abortion. You also talk as if a large % of people aren't idiots. Here is a heads up...they are. That's why your utopian way of life isn't possible and all we can realistically do is prevent the problems from overwhelming society.

I said I've done the research, and for me that means more than a Google search... I'll post some resources if I can dig them up, though.

You could do the research yourself too - just a little math is required.

Abstinence only works for overweight/underweight socially awkward dorks, the extremely unattractive, or the clinically depressed.
In my experience, most people who fit that description have been liberals.

Republican women tend to be cute, beautiful, and hot!

Nope....not good enough.

NO SEX FOR YOU until you are married.

{ and only then if you want a baby}

Why are you here.

Most folks who don't have sex don't have a desire to or the opportunity to. They come in all political flavors.

Abstinence is a form of birth control, and it is 100% effective.

Yeah, that's why most Hollywood actors and models lean right... mkay, whatever.

Republican women are hot, eh? I'm sure many are, but I can't help thinking of this woman (and yes, she proudly identifies as a Republican!) when you say that:



Well, I guess there are some people who'd find her attractive......
