- I have at least one acquaintance for whom trousers proved to be
- insufficient for the purposes of contraception. The one I am sure
- about was a woman. She was confident that her pants would stay on and
- she would not be impregnated. She was raped. And became pregnant.
- You could say her contraception failed.
