Thanks for finally trying to answer our questions Runner.

It seems to me that you believe that all unwanted pregnancies are a result of immaculate conceptions?

What about all the daddies Runner?

I would suggest that to decrease the admittedly too large numbers of unwanted pregnancies, that all the men/boys who don't want to make babies keep it in their pants.

What do you think about that suggestion?

suze, rather than blaming the men or blaming the women, why don't we try to evolve as a species and reduce the number of abortions that people are resorting to.

Yes, at the end of the day, this means being more thoughtful about how we experience sex, as a culture and individually.
The 'sexual revolution' should go further, deeper, into a more honest and grown-up understanding of the place of sex within the lives of individuals.

What, then, does contraception and abortion do to artificially change the biological sexual 'dance' of the woman?

Perhaps our culture of artifically enabled sex exacts an emotional cost on some younger childless women, by interrupting their hormonal 'flow'.

Biological science might better trace the emotional responses of women to sex, for example. Is it not possible that regular sex bonds women with their partners, in a biological preparation for the baby that the body expects within the year?

Let's not forget the sex is, from a biological perspective, essentially about pregnancy, after all.

Perhaps diseases such as anorexia can also be linked to competitiveness and anxiety caused by the cultural changes to sexual behaviour, where an incredibly drawn out, artificially sustained 'courting' ritual is now the norm.

There is so much study to do on the biological dance between men and women. Abortion, contraception and indeed the full gamut of biological messenging that occurs during sexual relating really needs to be studied much more fully.

Then, perhaps, the messages we tell ourselves about sex might become positive and holistic, rather than merely simplistic, pleasure-based and, need I say it, shallow.
