in principle, people should ideally be able to happily forget their significant other without fear of going bankrupt because they accidentally had a kid. a reality where poor people are forced to be celibate because they literally cannot afford the risk of having love is not a reality that i find acceptable |

Clearly telling people to just "not have love" isn't fixing anything. But you can't fix stupid, so there's really no point in arguing about this further. --- End quote --- IDGAF that people are too stupid to listen, if they're too stupid to enact some self control and not forget on impulse, that's not my problem. I'm not looking for a way to 'stop unwanted pregnancies', I'm saying there is an out, but if their too stupid to not stick their richard into these situations, then there is no solution. This is an excellent example of you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink. |

The issue is not people having love, it's people not having access to/not understanding birth control. |
