Munkers
I'd be curious to see some dialogue on the subject, but I can't get over the fear of how much soul-sucking "she didn't leave so she deserves it" is probably going to occur along with "she should of watched her BC more closely" and goodness knows what else.
Ugh, yes. I get to the point where all I can say is "stop victim blaming" and leave it at that. Which does nothing to educate those who aren't simply trolling but genuinely believe that to be true and/or reasonable.

But that does remind me of something. My mother worked in a women's clinic for a number of years which helped to serve the underprivileged in our area. They had a number of Catholic hispanic patients who wanted birth control to space out their children, but they had to hide the birth control from their partner because he would throw it out or potentially retaliate against her. The norplant (arm implant) was a really popular option there as was the depo shot.
That's horrible. Though cynical as it may sound, it's actually preferable to the cases we have here; those Catholic ladies were well aware of the expected reaction and were able to take precaution. These teens/college aged girls, not so much.
