Pregnancy and all of its wonders
First off feel free to move this to D&D if it would fit in better there.
Anyways, topic is pregnancy. What are your thoughts on it? What do you think about abortion and contraceptives? What about the age at which people should be getting pregnant if they want kids? Do you want kids? Have you or someone you've been with ever been pregnant? How do you handle it? Teen pregnancy? Rage a little bit about all of the 13 and 14 year olds that are getting pregnant now days if you would too. |
Pregnancy is cool, and exciting, tbh. I mean, it's bringing a life into the world.
I'm all for abortion, and I'm also completely for access to cheap birth control. If you're going to have sex, be responsible. If something happens, ah well. I think people should get pregnant when they feel like they're ready for it. Hopefully they're financially stable, but..eh. As far as being a dad, it's definitely something I'm looking forward to later in life. Hopefully it can happen within the next ten years. n_n Teen pregnancy happens. It's not going to go away. The best thing we can do is provide support to them. :) |
I think people should avoid getting pregnant at all costs. It's a 9-month horror show which ends in one big agonising climax, and then if that wasn't enough punishment you're then stuck with a child for the rest of your life. I can't imagine anything more horrifying.
Abortion is a gift, we shouldn't let it just sit in its box collecting dust. |
Pregnancy terrifies me. I don't even want kids and the fear of pregnancy, especially when I'm still in school, bothers me so much, I won't even have sex (alongside my disinterest, though I'd say the fear of pregnancy is ahead of that).
I can't tell people how to live their lives, but if you're going to have unprotected heterosexual encounters, get some birth control. Get some condoms. Get spermicide. Get a vasectemy. Get your tubes tied. Don't reproduce. I'm kidding. Just reproduce wisely and responsibly. Be safe. |
I think pregnancy is a great thing under the correct circumstances. I believe you shouldn't get pregnant unless you know for a fact that under one salary, you can pay for the bills and have a child. Until then, don't even risk the unprotected sex. Make sure you always use a condom and/or birth control, or you will regret it.
I think abortion is right under the right circumstances. For instance, if you were raped and you got pregnant, I'm sure you wouldn't want a living memory of that instance so that would make sense. And, really, I personally believe if you can't afford it, an abortion might be best. Why give the child a crappy life of poverty or send it to an adoption home, if you can take it out of the world before it has a realization that it's even dead. The child doesn't have emotions yet. It wouldn't know. It's not murder. |
I feel that pregnancy is a fascinating subject, really. The process of two cells joining and becoming a human is amazing. But good grief am I happy I don't have to deal with being pregnant. Although I suppose my future child's mother will probably take it out on me on the bad days, so yaaa D:

Like, it's a perfectly viable thing to do. I think I'm just pro-abortion, FOR NOW. I couldn't imagine having to do that to my kid, though, I'm sure my view would change greatly if the situation were to arise. |

I strongly believe that people shouldn't be having kids if they're not financially able to support their child. Of course, accidents do happen, why is where abortions or adoptions come into play. |

Here's my whole little reason for making this thread.
Wednesday I once again fell into the trap of getting my ex pregnant. I didn't end up using a condom even though I had brought one with me and had it laying right on the bed next to me. Anyways, this would be the 4th or 5th time that I've gotten her pregnant, and we haven't even been in a relationship for over 6 months. So after we had done the doo she looked to me and asked what we were going to do if she got pregnant. Which I then replied to with "We'll just abort it with my fist like we always do." Now she's gotten to the point of showing 3 times, the first time she lost the kid was when we were dating and that was neither of our faults, she just lost it. The second and third time she started showing was when we weren't together and I got rid of that real quick. I don't have time to be 18 years old with a 15 year old girl who's pregnant with my child when we haven't even been dating and I don't want to be with her. And regarding teen pregnancy I just feel bad about it. 2 years ago everyone at my school was freaking out because a 7th grade student got pregnant. Last year a 4th grade student got pregnant and nobody even batted an eye. Not to get too off topic, but something about this just isn't right. When I was the age that some of these kids are when they're getting pregnant I was just learning how to fap. I hadn't even thought of touching a girl like that until I was in 8th grade and I'm not a very sheltered/nonsexual child. |
As hilarious as I find it that you've gotten this same girl pregnant the same amount of times as I've seen the new Captain America movie, I have to wonder why you continue to have sex with her. Disregarding the fact that you're silly enough after three ended pregnancies not to wear a condom, either one of you (or both) are clearly exceptionally fertile, so it just doesn't seem like a worthwhile match-up in the long run. There are plenty of girls out there that I'm sure are less fertile.
|
Oh I'm sure there are but there's none that will crawl under a blanket with me so willingly. I usually start without a condom and go for 20-30 minutes like that then I put it on and wreck it for the next 15 minutes to hour and a half. But sometimes she decides she wants to actually do something instead of making me do all the work and boom it's done.

^Wow, just wow lol. Wow.
xD .. What are your thoughts on it? What do you think about abortion and contraceptives? Abortion is good, contraceptives are super good. I just wish it was easier to get ahold of birth control without a doctor. I really would like to be on birth control right now because I trust it the most, but I don't have health insurance so I can't really get ahold of it too easily. >.< Abortion is very good for many circumstances, as long as its not forced. Adoption...well it is good too, although there are SO many kids right now needing to be adopted, I feel like if someone wants to adopt, there are plenty of kids needing it, but most people want a baby to adopt instead of a child. Sooo many kids out in the system though. :( What about the age at which people should be getting pregnant if they want kids? The age would mostly not matter, the circumstances would. Do you have stable money, a stable home? Not living with your parents? Good relationship with your partner? Those things would be good conditions to have a baby in. Have you or someone you've been with ever been pregnant? I have been pregnant, I do have a child. I got pregnant much too early but it was by no means on purpose or anything, sometimes stuff happens and you get unlucky. Teen pregnancy? Do not really agree with it, most teenagers are living with their parents still and still going to school, the parents will probably end up taking care of the child a lot so you can go to school, but your parents didn't ask or want any of that I'm sure. They will probably end up having to pay for the child as well, by no fault of their own. There are circumstances where the teens parents DON'T have to pay for the child, and the teen is able to get their own place as well. I was "lucky" ( I use that word loosely because falling pregnant was bad luck all together) to have gotten pregnant when I was pretty much done with high school, had the baby after I finished. Of course it did interfere with me going to college, but one more year and he will be in school and I will go then most likely. My boyfriend got a job so my mom didn't have to pay for a single thing, unless she wanted to buy something. (and grand parents always do) I lived with my mom for a year, then we were able to move out into a place of our own. Our situation could be improved, but it would have been much worse if I were to fall pregnant at an age that wasn't so close to 18. (turned 18 a month after he was born) |
childbirth is actively ♥♥♥♥ing disgusting to me, and if I ever have kids I feel like I'm gonna pass out in the hospital room while it's happening. however I would like to have kids eventually.
and I'm pro-choice. as far as I see it I have no grounds to tell a woman what she can or can't do with her unborn child, so abortion is an issue that I try not to get too involved with. it's not my decision. |
I want my own kid(s) but I don't want to go through the pregnancy process. >_< I fear most hospitals and medical places and situations so I can only imagine that pregnancy is way worse... Just the thought of your belly button turning inside out grosses me out, for goodness sake!
I think it's amazing that a woman's body can manage to give birth. It's a cool but extremely painful process. I'm really scared for it but I want kids! GRRRR >_< I think that if people are having sex and don't want kids then they should be using two forms of protection at least to make SURE nothing bad happens. Personally for me, I will use two forms of protection. Birth control and a condom. I feel unsafe using only one form. Abortion is a hard thing to do, especially if you're quite far along. If the kid will come out all messed up in one way or another, I believe it's best to just have an abortion. Same goes for rape victims. But if you're going to be stupid and have sex without protection and be surprised you're pregnant, then you shouldn't use abortion as a safe way out. That's just sickening to me. Use protection. If you are and something bad happens then that's a different story. |

They do say that when it becomes your situation and your child, your opinion greatly differs. I personally don't want to figure out what it feels like, haha. Again, pregnancy terrifies me. |
I see the beauty and the gross factor in pregnancy. I don't like children and I don't find babies cute at all so I'm not big on it for myself, but that's your call for yourself!! It's still interesting to me how it all happens and I find pregnancy in anything besides humans to be "cute" to some extent I guess.
I'm all for abortion and contraceptives. I think it's completely the woman's choice since it's happening in her body. I wouldn't say there is really a right age for getting pregnant as there is a right time. And to be honest for some people that time is never. I've had a couple friends get pregnant before. Some of them kept it and some of them didn't. I myself have never been pregnant, but if it ever happened I already know exactly what I would do. |
Yeah, pregnancy doesn't sound so great to me. Morning sickness? Mood swings? Carrying around a parasite (yes, that is in fact what a developing baby/fetus is, more or less) for about 9 months? Forcing an almost 2 foot long, 6 to 8 pound thing out of an orifice that is way smaller than that at the end of that 9 months? No thanks. Not to mention that being a parent is not something everyone can handle. I'm sure I'd make a terrible parent. I'm not interested in having kids at all, in case you couldn't tell.
Also, children and babies are terribly overrated. As for the rest of the subject, I'm pro-choice, and contraceptives are a very good thing. Use them people. There's no reason not to. With teenage pregnancy, its not so bad if you're 17, 18, 19. But if you're 13, 14....10....don't get pregnant. It's really something you don't need at that point in your life, and I seriously doubt anyone on that end of the teenage age range can handle having a kid. |

It's necessary for humanity. It's not a bad thing to not want to go through with the procedure, which is why you can give it to someone else and have it born via surrogate mothers. If you don't want the baby at all, abortion's your way to go. Sure, it sounds wrong, but the choice is completely up to you. I'm not a children person, so I wouldn't want a kid, but I would probably end up having one anyway. It's human instinct, to want to have kids. If you don't want one, nobody's going to call you weird. Again, 100% your decisions. Of course there's the issue of overpopulation, but that's basically inescapable.
Age? 18 and over. Obvious question. That way, you usually have the father bringing an income, and you being able to stay home. I remember there was a pregnant 15 year old in my class. Cool person, good friend of mine. I was just thinking, in my head, "why?". She's stopped coming to school since having it, which means she's going to miss out on a good education. Taking care of a kid's work. All I can say. I don't really care what you do with your baby. It's yours, you do what you want. Just be careful with what people say... |
Abortion is idiotic. "I can't afford my son/daughter, so let's brutally murder them. :)" "I was raped, so instead of raising my own flesh and blood to have a better life, let's again, brutally murder them. :)"
You are absolute monsters to humanity. The love of my life was raped many, many, times and had told me if she had gotten pregnant (she didn't) she wold have loving raised her child to have a beautiful life, not (once again) brutally murder it. |
