Navy Seeks to Combat Unplanned Pregnancies

I just knew you were going to say that. You have essentially said men cannot control themselves around women and it is the women's fault. You never cease to amaze.

Can't you read? I said both sexes are at fault....
 
and in the Navy thry are in epedemic proportions aboard ship. The stories I could tell you like a sub tender after a 6 month cruise being called the love boat.

Not what your source says. In fact your source says that the vast majority of those with kids in the navy are married. Did you know that married couples ashore can have unplanned pregnancies?
 
Liberals are the ones who want to use the military for social experimentation.............Very few young people use birth control....That is the reason for the epedimic of pregnancies.

I hate to tell you but this does seem to point to a intelligence problem with Navy personnel. They seem to be unaware of what happens from unprotected sex.

I notice you don't mention my comment on the Loveboat. Those women getting pregnant were not married.

Easy for you to say...............

You still don't realize that the study isn't limited to at-sea pregnancies. For all you know, 99.9% of them happened on land.
 
Well, obviously you slept in that day of biology as the female does have responsibility of carrying the baby for 9 months then raise baby to young adulthood while you go dress up like a cartoon.

But she has no responsibility in making the baby in your narrow mind?

Nobody said that. I'm really confused as to where you got the idea.
 
He seriously implied that rape in the military is the fault of liberals. Yet another example of how thin and flimsy that "personal responsibility" schtick is.

One more time my left wing friend.........This thread is about unwanted pregnancies not rape.

You said there would be no rape problem if women weren't on the ships, and women are on the ships because of liberals.

One more time, NP: unwanted pregnancies also occur on land.
 
There you go again with that "Left Wing" crap. I will now repeat to you for the 6000th time that just because someone does not see eye-to-eye with you, it does not make them "Left Wing" (not that there is anything wrong with that). Like most people, I am conservative on some issues, liberal on others, but mostly in the middle. You are what you are . . . a one horse pony.

Why are you lefties so ashamed to be addressed as such? A am a Conservative and wear my Conservatism as a badge of honor as do most Conservatives.

You have a reading comprehension problem . . . perhaps you should see a doctor.

Of course they do and that is a problem to but I am talking about shipboard preegnancies..
 
I notice you don't mention my comment on the Loveboat. Those women getting pregnant were not married.

Your article does not specify shipboard. Sorry NP, but you ran away from the facts.
 
I'm pretty sure some folks might say there wouldn't be rape if there weren't women.
Them (hypothetical?) folks would be wrong, of course.

People, on the whole, say and believe a lot of silly things. :D
 
I want you to try and concentrate like a laser beam my left wing friend.......We are talking about pregnancies aboard Navy Ships.

Actually, YOU are talking about pregnancies on ships. The article is talking about unwanted pregnancies in the Navy in general.
 
Yes, because only liberals in the military cause pregnancy. BWWWAHAAAAHHHAAAAAA! Stop . . . please . . . if you just made a point without Liberal bashing it would not make you look so . . .

.

I think the word you are searching for here is 'ignorant'.

Hey, I have no problem calling you Right Wing. Most of your opinions on anything are on the outermost reaches of the right wing.

It strongly appears not only did you miss biology classes but reading comprehension as well.

You see my political lean is very conservative. yours says slightly liberal when in fact you are as far out left as they come.
 
I told you lefties a long time ago that this is what you get when you mix young men and women at sea for a long period of time....No matter what the restrictions are they will get together and make unwanted babies.

Up to 65 percent of pregnancies in the military are self-reported as unplanned, according to a December report by The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists' Committee on Health Care for Underserved Women.
Nearly three-fourths of all Navy pregnancies were unplanned, according to a recent parenthood survey conducted by the service. Of those, only 31 percent of the couples were using birth control at the time they conceived. With pregnancies involving enlisted servicewomen, 70 percent of the fathers were also in the military

Because servicemen never got women pregnant unintentionally before women were allowed to serve :doh
