If you don't have the means, intelligence, or maturity to raise a child, then you shouldn't be involved in promiscuous activities, such as sex. amirite?

OR, you could just practice safe sex with condoms and birth control...

true, but contraceptives may not always work. there is always risk of forgetting to take the pill one day or the condom breaking.

Uh huh, and if you use both, the chances are like .0000001.

STILL HAPPENS.

As the post is saying these people aren't mature/intelligent so odds are they aren't planning that well, or are that consistent. Look at all the kids who are accidents, I bet their parents thought they were playing it safe.

Safe sex doesn't lead to a baby. Your post should be "If you're not responsible enough to have safe sex you shouldn't have sex."

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Doesn't matter if it is safe or not. You can still have a baby no matter WHAT. Unless you have like a hysterectomy or something.

You can still get pregnant (though the chances are very very low), but there are other ways to avoid having a baby.

K, wait. Did you just... not read what I said or something?

I'm saying that even if all birth control fails (which is highly unlikely) and the sperm fertilises the egg, you can still back out. I was referring to abortion/adoption.

By the way, this is a repost.

True, to your first comment and sorry I didn't realize someone already made this post.

There's always a risk of having contraceptives break or fail, which is why there are teenagers who had "safe sex" that end up pregnant. So yes, this is true.

There is more to sex than making a baby...

So, someone who doesn't want to have children at all needs to stay a virgin for their whole life, even if they're married or in a steady relationship, thats what you're saying? Yes, condoms and other means of birth control are not 100% effective, there's no denying it. But the chances of getting pregnant while you are practicing safe sex is very slim, especially if you combine different methods.

Not at all. What the OP is saying is that if you don't have the means, intelligence or maturity to take care of one, you shouldn't have sex. Not just if you don't want one. Having the means, intelligence and maturity means that if you DO get pregnant, you'll do what's best for the child... which can mean raising it or putting it up for adoption, etc. But, I know sooooo many people who honestly CANNOT do what is best for the baby because they are too stupid or immature. My friend is pregnant (17) and she does drugs (while pregnant) and she wants to KEEP it. She's a perfect example. That's what the OP is saying from what I can understand.

Well, that is a lot more understandable, but from the way that the OP worded his/her post it was unclear.

I've been with my bf more than 4 years. We don't want kids any time soon. We have sex. A lot. No condoms, I'm allergic. But I'm on the pill. In 6+ years of taking it, I've never been preggo. Coooool.

(:)): So you're allergic to latex, polyurethane, and lambskin condoms? I doubt that.

Even if i'm a... Promiscuous girl? Ah? Ahhh?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

@691284: in fact, I am. But seriously? If I wanna fuck my man of over 4 years without a condom that most definitely does not make me promiscuous or anything like that.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

promiscuous activities such as sex? what other promiscuous activities lead to pregnancy?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

That's the point.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

lol you obviously don't get it. Just making out can lead to sex.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

oh i get it now. i guess i wasn't thinking about it that way.

Birth control pills have soooooooooo many bad sides effects for women. You shouldn't use them. And I completely agree with the OP. Also, all you people who are having sex with your boyfriend/girlfriend, are irresponsible, even if you are using a contraceptive. Babies can still be concieved if you use a contraceptive. The solution in very simple; if you don't want a baby DON'T HAVE SEX. Oh look, I just solved the problem of abortion. The only problem is that people are too pleasure oriented and selfish to abstain. Besides, there's a better way to make sure you don't get a baby. It's called Natural Family Planning. Look it up.
