I completely disagree with the notion that everyone who engages in sex absolutely and without conditions accepts the risk of pregnancy. It is completely disconnected from reality. |
Just because people behave like idiots doesn't excuse it. If a particularly dull bulb signs up for the Army's infantry, but didn't understand that he might be in some degree of danger, he can't just say "woops, never mind ship me back to LA please."
