[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It would be a war on women! Women should have the right to decide their own lives and what goes on with their own bodies. When women have control of reproduction, they are better educated and have better financial freedom.

You know how one can prevent that? Not letting a guy put it in when you're in high school. I'm not for abstinence only and I do think there are medical/criminal reasons for abortion, but let's be honest if any particular high school girl is soooo worried for her future bc she fears a condom will break and she wouldn't be able to get an abortion -- would it be the end of the world to not start sleeping with people until after high school??[/quote]

It’s been a while but I seem to remember that high school boys might play a role here too...

Really? If they're putting it in without consent -- as I say above there's criminal reasons for an abortion then. But if a girl is letting them put it in knowing a pregnancy could result if no protection is used and/or if protection fails, the boy is burdened how exactly? Is he carrying the pregnancy and breastfeeding the kid? And I say this as a parent of daughters -- we all know girls carry the burden here, no matter how charming/convincing a boy may be.[/quote]

And will continue to carry the burden as long as people like you place responsibility for birth control AND child rearing on the woman. [/quote]
