I'm with you, Yoshi! I can't even comprehend it. Like you, I lost V-card at an early age [it was the thing to do, back in the day, and I craved having a "boyfriend." What a joke!~ Like you, I didn't waste a lot of time securing birth control, and I never had children. Altho I regret this to some extent in middle age, my maternal instinct has still not kicked in sufficiently to undergo all that would be required to bear, raise and educate another person. Do you think the girls you reference are getting prego to keep the boyfriend? To have someone that will love them? To live "on the edge" during the sexual act? Your guess is as good as mine. Thank You for providing some great food for thought to those who might be in such a situation. billieJ
