Question for the peanut gallery:

It’s like how every Sunday I hope that Jameis Winston, Ben Roethlisberger, and Adrian Peterson will get devastating injuries during a game. I am firmly anti-violence, but football is dangerous and if something should happen, I wouldn’t be sad about it.

I’m sorry your family went through that. I hope you’re all doing okay.

I’m not either, but I don’t think my love would disappear instantly. It would take awhile, like a bad breakup. First, I would be devastated and cry a lot. Then, with time, I’d get over it and move on without them.

That was one of the privileges I was thinking of, yeah.

I’m pretty ashamed of myself for not thinking to do it first.

Bless you.

Remember how we always think this is gross when a man is saying it about a teen girl? I remember.

Agree.

Yeah, women in those circumstances who are ambivalent about pregnancy probably aren’t using IUDs. I fail to see how her ideas have anything to do with IUDs, or why we would need to “mourn” a thing that still happens on the reg.

I just fail to see how her point has anything to do with IUDs. The title is disingenuous clickbait.

I also don’t think people who have that particular sort of accidental pregnancy will lose it because of IUDs.

I get that re: money privilege, but there’s also people who medically can’t survive a pregnancy, or a variety of other reasons why pregnancy may be 100% out of the question. Mostly, I think the title is silly and should reflect the somewhat narrow focus of the article.

Now change the title to something that makes sense, I guess? I’m not really sure what you’re saying. /shrug

That’s fine. The article should still have a different title. It’s a very stupid title.

I don’t understand the question.

Thank you. It’s the whole “mourning” concept that I disagree with.

Yeah, the “mourning” is what really gets me. Mourning is a response to loss. No one has lost anything. People who are ambivalent about pregnancy don’t have to get IUDs if they don’t want them.

Thanks :D

That’s fine, re: money privilege.
