- Gosh, Nyikos, why don't you name for me a contraceptive
- that's 100% effective? That is, a contraceptive that will
- prevent pregnancy for sexually active het women 100% of the
- time. Can you name one?

- Here's a free clue for you: Until women have such a
- contraceptive, unwanted pregnancies are going to exist.
- Even among women who use contraception. Some of those women
- are going to want abortion IN ADDITION TO contraception.
