Without a 100% effective contraceptive, unwanted pregnancy will always be thrust upon a woman. Abstinance helps, except in the case of forcible rape, but even you (I hope) would not recommend that alternative for married women. They have abortions too, you know. -- Bill Tanenbaum - AT&T Bell Labs - Naperville IL ihnp4!ihlpg!tan
