Are you saying that you are more concerned about the death of feminism than the death of babies???? Who the fuck cares, if this is murder like you say, how can you pass up a voluntary, nonviolent way to prevent them?

What, too expensive? Or is your real agenda to use pregnancy as a sex deterrent?

Do you even read what is written before you start spouting off?

Those of you who actually grew up fighting for equality for women do not want to be treated like children. We fought for equal rights not special rights. We fought for reproductive freedom not free birth control. You women call for special services and/or free services are not feminists and you set all women back 40 years. Take charge of your own lives and then you can call your self a feminist and a mature women.

I totally agree with 9:44. Cut the victim mentality and empower yourself.

Come on -- do you really want someone who can't find $9/month or who is not willing to travel 3 miles to Target to have a baby? Isn't THAT more of a drain on resources?

No, she's saying that woman should keep her knees together. Remember, this isn't about "life" it's about "sluts."

I'm pro-life...and I'm extremely pro-contraception.


I'm pro-choice and want to reduce the # of abortions.

Lets work together to expand access to contraceptives, rather than yelling at each other outside clinics!

clapping!!!

I'm Catholic, but these numbers are just undeniably powerful. The argument against contraception is that it interferes with God's will. But then again, most of these women are having sex outside of marriage and therefore against God's will anyway.

I suppose there will be some who will be worried that the contraception sometimes causes a spontaneous abortion of an embryo at the 2-4 cell range, but I think even if you count those as "deaths" the numbers still make this use of contraception "pro-life".

If we really care about the life issue, as the most important thing, we can no longer ignore the role of contraception in protecting life.

Not surprising.

From the article:

"From 2008 to 2010, annual abortion rates among participants in the Contraceptive Choice Project -- dubbed CHOICE -- ranged from 4.4 abortions per 1,000 women to 7.5 abortions per 1,000. That’s far less than the 19.6 abortions per 1,000 women nationwide reported in 2008, the latest year for which figures are available.
Among teen girls ages 15 to 19 who participated in the study, the annual birth rate was 6.3 per 1,000 girls, far below the U.S. rate of 34.3 per 1,000 for girls the same age."

Holy cow, those are amazing numbers. To me, anyone who opposes abortion HAS to consider the magnitude of the change that can be achieved by using birth control, even taking into account moral qualms about birth control. The results are just too big to ignore.
