- This doesn't mean that the woman has to sit & suffer with an
- unwanted pregnancy, of course, any more than a car accident
- victim has to suffer with his injuries. She consented to sex,
- orgasm, and a small chance of pregnancy, not to pregnancy itself.
- The woman can choose from a wide variety of options once she's
- found out she's got an unwanted pregancy. She can have an
- abortion, bring to term & give the baby up for adoption, or
- bring to term & keep the baby. It's all up to her.
