If that's true, then you're the only one. 99% of these "oops!" pregnancies would have been prevented if the parties had taken the simplest precautions.
So it's not about people having sex. It's about people having reckless, irresponsible sex. If a person is reckless and irresponsible about bringing a human being into this world -- which is by far the biggest thing she will ever do -- then I think it's quite fair for others to wonder whether she'll be reckless and irresponsible about other things, too.

You know...I'd actually have to argue that your diligence and consistency is/was quite a rare occurrence as well.
Unlike you...there are many young ladies who simply aren't strong enough to say "No!" to unprotected sex...every time. They most certainly are taking a roll of the dice, but you'd be surprised how many smart, contributing, wonderful, and committed women make that mistake everyday. To the point of the poster that you were responding to, it may just be that these ladies are unfortunate enough to have the visible results of that 'mistake'.
