i just had a family life class about sex in general. we talk about abstinence, of course. and so on. plus, students ask questions.
"can you give a handjob and still be abstinent?"
one girl asked.
Sorry, I just can't do all lower-case.
Anyway, so the subject quickly changed to abortion. Yay for living in the most fucked up Christian (note: I mean that these particular Christians are fucked up, that is. I generally love religions) and hardcore Republican area ever. No one had an actual opinion or logical thought. Even the TEACHER was a dipshit. They all wanted it illegal.
NEWSFLASH
If some promiscuous whore doesn't want a baby, she'll GET an abortion. If a young girl is raped and would die giving birth to a baby who also wouldn't likely make it through infancy, she should get an abortion. If it is illegal, it will happen in an unsafe and unhealthy environment. It will happen.
Legal abortions doesn't mean doctors are going to chase pregnant women down the streets with vacuums to suck the baby out through their vaginae*. It just means those that request it can get it done by someone who is well-trained.
Helpful vent was helpful.
*Did you know: The plural of "vagina" is "vaginae"? Yay Latin! |
