In Utah, miscarriage is murder

This kind of reminds me of that law in Connorsville, Wisconsin, "it is illegal for a man to shoot off a gun when his female partner is having an orgasm. "

There are all sorts of weird laws out there - and you know they were all made in response to a specific incident. I'm sure there was some *sshat in Connorsville that would shoot his rifle every time he'd get his wife on a multiple-streak, just to piss off his neighbor.
 
I can see them trying to prevent girls from being like that 17 year old paying someone else to beat her up so she'd miscarry. I had a friend in high school that told me once "If I ever got pregnant, I think I would 'accidentally' fall down some stairs." Would that have aborted her fetus? Probably not. I'm sure we can thank Lifetime and Soapnet for girls thinking like that. Well, those stations, and a serious fault within sex education.

But things often happen backwards. Rather than promoting birth control use (which can be obtained in prescription form without parental consent) Utah is on the "Abstinence-based" sex-ed system - and is likely to move toward abstinence-only. Thankfully there's the internet. But I don't know how many people will go and do their own research on these topics. I'm rather well educated, but I have a co-worker that's 34, and still asks *me* to explain stuff  :roll:

On somewhat of a tangent - I don't understand people that promote AO. Do they practice what they preach? I mean, if they have been married 20 years, and have three children. Did they only have sex 3 times? Doubtful (and if so I pity them). But why tell young people the only way to prevent pregnancy is through abstinence, when they obviously know differently?

Do I agree with the law - no. Am I surprised it was made - not at all.
 
Ah, good old abstinence-based sex education. Only in America ;D

How is that stuff working out for you guys?

(Incidentally, this graph comes in handy when discussing age of consent, since it's higher in many US states than it is anywhere else in the developed world)

Actually, there seem to be a lot of weird laws in the US, even weirder than the ones about shooting guns when your wife cums. (srsly, who thought up that law? Who passed that law). Then again, there are weird laws where I live, most of which were passed by the current government...
