Yes it never happens. Because you say so.
Never ever in your whole life met anyone who got pregnant who thought they would not get pregnant.

Think about it... the left can get any unemployed female to larp.
You don't know of anyone at all, who had a late in life pregnancy they didn't intend, or a pregnancy following quickly on the birth of a child when they thought breastfeeding would protect them from another pregnancy?

Ok. I guess we all run in different size social circles. You may live in a very small community.

Over time, and this has remained fairly static for a couple generations, the birth rate for babies that are conceived unintentionally is around 40%.

But, you don't know anyone this has happened to. IC - do you imagine it's because no one is telling you?

I hope not, but there's always that possibility.

I really hope you’re not saying women should bear total responsibility for becoming pregnant.

I bet you know a LOT of women who got pregnant unintentionally.
There’s a difference between an unplanned pregnancy that results in a baby vs an abortion. Abortion is controversial for a reason. Even though I support the right to choose through the first trimester, I still understand that a life is ended via abortion so if someone is having unprotected sex uses abortion as BC, I think that’s messed up even though I do still see reasons to keep it legal.

No, I haven't. Because EVERY SINGLE TIME, the women who got pregnant KNEW they weren't using birth control. Just like the 95% of unintended pregnancies today are caused by women VOLUNTARILY participating in unprotected sex.

I’m surprised that they haven’t told us who is responsible yet. Just speculation. It should not be difficult to figure out.

That obviously is not happening, nor will any law against abortion ever slow them down. “Just say no” didn’t work in the Garden of Eden, and it doesn’t work now. The only way to stop abortions is to make it impossible for males to impregnate women.

Of course not. But when a man refuses to use a condom and a woman agrees to sex anyway, that's on HER. She can say NO, but did not.

So then point the finger.
It can't be that difficult for you.
