    Default Contraception

    Last week a mother of three boys said having access to abortion was essential. It caused me to wonder why see would risk a pregnancy.

    If married, the man could or could consider a vasectomy.

    Contraceptives should or could be a paid medical benefit .

    However, infrequent sex was a reason for not using a contraceptive in this article.

    Oh come on, Chuck. People of all stripes "risk pregnancy" for the same reason (s) that they have for tens of thousands of years.

    Just read, “One day I hope to become a mother. But for now I have sex just because I like it. Sex is fun.”

    Or, right now I love to order stuff from eBay. Someday I hope to be out of debt.

    Or, I love not caring if the Suby has oil. Someday I hope to not have to replace my engine.

    So, you're going to pick on this married woman for her pregnancy?

    How about we try restricting all sex to only when a woman signals that she is willing to be pregnant.

    Actions have consequences, Ted. I assumed a man of retirement age would have understood. Perhaps not.

    So, if your students don’t study for the final, they are not at fault for failing?

    No shit, actions have consequences. But why are you picking on the women? How about we castrate every male who gets a woman pregnant when she would rather not be pregnant?

    Why did you start this thread? What is your point?

    Really Ted?? You’re an educator and you don’t take the time to read? Shit fire bro!!

    There was a commercial with the verbiage, “ I can bring home the bacon, fry it up in a pan, and never let you forget you’re a man”.

    I’m not picking on anyone. Are you posting drunk again?

    Same as you. I realize this is uncomfortable for your position. I’ll give you a pass.

    Either a vasectomy or female contraception would eliminate the need for aborting human life.

    While too much information, I got a vasectomy decades ago because of my spouses health concerns.

    So, preventing pregnancy seems to be the most obvious and safe option. I am surprised it’s not more utilized.

    Contraception IS utilized, Chuck. Millions and millions of times a day all over the world. And also by MEN.

    You read one article about a few married women, and then you busted on them for not being smarter about becoming pregnant.

    I'm going to make my point plain: pregnancy is the the number one crusher of dreams and ambition and adult growth for women around the world. And they bear that burden disproportionate to men, who now abandon them when pregnant at higher rates than ever (not that it was ever "good"). Pregnancy and its complications are the number one health threat to women's bodies under the age of 40 and has the most profound effect on altering a damaging a woman's body. Freedom for women is tied to four things in the modern era: educational access, marital equality, legal equality (for business and finance), and reproductive control. Women (and the rest of society) must fight for all four of these pillars of female freedom because NONE of them have been traditionally granted them in the history of western society. NONE OF THEM. And some of them have been won only VERY RECENTLY in cultural terms. Some men want to take these gains back and pull out some of these pillars. Some men won't even acknowledge that these things are true nor that if true that they carry any continuing legacy today. But most women won't fucking say that. And even fewer will say it now that the SC has said (in its majority opinion) that Roe had no basis in law or cultural history prior. Well, no fucking shit. The litigants were trying to overturn centuries of legal confinement of women to pregnancies that they did not want (one of those pillars).

    They won. And for 50 years that victory stood and the fourth pillar of female independence from the disproportionate burden of pregnancy grew stronger.

    And now the foundation under that pillar has been removed. And women are now less free, less independent, and the patriarchal tradition of America has begun to re-tie women with the chains of pregnancy.

    So don't blame married women for getting pregnant. That's not the problem.

    M: I came here for a good argument.
    A: No you didn't; no, you came here for an argument.
    M: An argument isn't just contradiction.
    A: It can be.
    M: No it can't. An argument is a connected series of statements intended to establish a proposition.
    A: No it isn't.
    M: Yes it is! It's not just contradiction.
    A: Look, if I argue with you, I must take up a contrary position.
    M: Yes, but that's not just saying 'No it isn't.'
    A: Yes it is!
    M: No it isn't!
