What's Your Pet Peeves?

1: Pro-Life Advocates -- This seems to be a big one here, and I'm not going to argue ideology. If it's to cover-up an affair or something like that, I'm against abortion. Those bitches should own up to the fact that they screwed around and were total idiots and now have to live with consequences.

I feel very much the same way. If a woman who's old enough to understand where babies come from willingly spreads her legs for a guy who's also old enough to know where babies come from but who sticks it in anyway, and neither one even so much as uses protection, they deserve whatever happens. If even one of them didn't want her to become pregnant, that's something they should have thought of before getting it on (I view the guy as being equally responsible in this regard).

Wow, you mean you're not going to call her out on that? You AGREE????

*in complete shock*

You think it's okay for an unwanted baby to be brought into the world just because someone didn't try hard enough not to get pregnant? It is our job to try to prevent pregnancy, but you can't just punish someone because you think they lived their life wrong.

Even if that were a logical thing to say, where do you draw the line? You can't just say, "Oh, you didn't try hard enough. He pulled out, instead wearing a condom," or "Well, you used a cheap condom and it broke so you have to have a baby now," or whatever.

And of course we all know that birth control is going to fail some of the time. There's nothing we can do about that right now.

And maybe you THINK a woman who has an affair should suffer the consequences (problem is that it doesn't just affect her. It affects her husband, her lover, her family, whoever has to raise the baby, and THE BABY) but to legally enforce that? Way too messy. Not to mention the fact that a man can't get pregnant, and so he can cheat but not have to suffer the same consequences as a woman does for the same behavior????

You just can't control people like that. It's sexist and it's illogical.
