to the cowardly asshole who would not sign his/her name (okay, probably a he) and suggested women get "recreational abortions" because they have apparently not figured how to use birth control:

Fuck you. You're a moron.

My sister got pregnant using the birth control pill, a method considered 99% effective (guess she was the unlucky 1%). I know other women who have, too. This is not to mention accidental pregnancies resulting from using less "user effective" methods like condoms, diaphragm, sponge, foam, Norplant, etc.

Those method/user failure statistics exist for a reason.

As a kindly doctor in the UK told me a few years ago (after I got pregnant using a sponge AND a condom simultaneously) "sometimes it's just hard luck." Oh, and I was fortunate to have access to RU 486 in that country. Technically we do here in the States now, too, but probably not much longer...

Birth control is still in the stone age. But perhaps you, "GUEST", could try to move your mentality a bit further along into the present day, hmm?

Just because you haven't gotten laid in ten years, is no justification for your anonymous misogynistic venom.

Gee, I probably lost a few votes with that one...
