Remind me again who at responsible for rape? It doesn't matter what you do to "protect yourself from rapists." Rape ***will*** happen no matter what a woman ***does*** until the rape culture is brought to a ***stop***.
How about publishing articles that educate boys and men ***NOT*** to rape. What about holding men and boys accountable for their actions? How about we stop the doubting, blaming and shaming the victims? How about you "Don't be THAT guy." http://www.theviolencestopshere.ca/dbtg… Only when we, collectively as a society, stand up to say this is not okay, will the rape and violence stop!

There are so many fallacies in your logic. ad hominem, hasty generalization, and red herring!! Your arguments are invalid.

A few other things.
1.) Get educated. Have you looked into the vast amount of research on actual risks and benefits of oral contraceptives? You might want to check out http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1034… or http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NE… for starters. Oral contraceptives are shown to have a significant effect on reducing the risk of ovarian cancer. It is also shown that "current or former oral-contraceptive use was not associated with a significantly increased risk of breast cancer." If you're going to make such claims, back it up with good research to support them.

2.) Furthermore, given the income and life style that most people make, the last thing you want to do is encourage more babies that can't be appropriately cared for and educated.
Who is going to support these children when their parents can't or won't?

3.) Regardless of whether or not you believe in contraceptives, tell me that you are without sin. Only one person can determine if someone is saved and you're not Jesus. Don't try to do His job. Do not pass judgement or you too will be judged.
