Safety trumps safe sex for teens in abusive relationships

This is one of the more disturbing headlines I鈥檝e read lately. 鈥淭een Girls Report Abusive Boyfriends Try to Get Them Pregnant鈥?br>
My first instinct was to ask where young men are learning these tools to oppress and degrade, but on quick reflection, the real question is where are they not learning them? From judges, to legislators, to pharmacists and hospitals that impose their beliefs on others, to the protestors outside of the now-delayed clinic in Aurora, Illinois 鈥?it would be impossible for a young man, especially one with the proclivity to abuse, to not recognize the power that comes with forced procreation.
Do you think, in some cases, men purposely get women pregant? (it's contrary to the belief that women are the guilty ones, isn't it?)

I had an ex do this to me.
I had an abortion then left him. I'm never going to let any man do that to me again.

if your boyfriend abuse you leave him.
You are making assumptions. Abusive relationships by definition are harmful. Even as women use sex as a weapon, so too do men. Teenagers are no more intelligent and are just as wicked in their devices and ways as adults. It varies from one case to another. In most cases teenagers don't fully understand what procreation means. They know the information, but do not truly understand it. In other cases, they understand but do not care. In abusive relationships, it's about power, control, and low self-esteem. Abusers are often as much victims as their victims. Though they won't admit it, the abusers usually have low self-esteem and seek easy targets who also have low self-esteem.
