I wanted to share this with you because, frankly, I loved reading it. I think you will enjoy it too.
From here.
Two words: mandatory sterilization.
At puberty. For everyone. I know its fascist and I dont care, because I know itll never happen so why not fantasize with my fascist fantasies? In a world that I ruled over with combat boots and common sense, things like this would never happen.
It is obvious even to a disabled monkey that easier access to birth control would have no impact on a situation like this. These stupid children were trying to get pregnant. TRYING! Oh and by the way, other articles about this point out that most of these girls are 16 and younger.
I cant possibly fathom why this situation is a mystery to anyone who is paying attention to popular culture. Frankly, Im surprised it doesnt happen more often and on a grander scale.
Weve allowed the rampant sexualization of girls all the way down to toddlers. Britney Spears little sister, star of a Nickelodeon show, had a baby this week at the age of 17. Read the article I linked to for that and notice how they act like this is good news and shell be such a great mom! OMG, like, shes so fun!
The stigma of being a slut is gone, thanks to Paris Hilton and the like. You can be publicly KNOWN to be a drunken, STD-carrying, wildly promiscuous shit-for-brains and what will happen? Youll get acting jobs, endorsement work, a fashion line, and hundreds of magazine covers.
If you have kids and you ever let them watch MTV - I mean ever - or half the other entertainment channels out there, youre making a serious mistake. Have you seen whats on there? I cant even begin to describe it. I flip by sometimes and stop to see what kind of garbage theyre broadcasting to children, and Im telling you as someone who doesnt even have kids, it freaks me OUT.

This is one of the results of the fact that weve decided as a society that being judgmental is a horrible thing. Seems to me that people need to start being MORE judgmental. Im doing it right now and it feels pretty good.
If youre a 16-year-old girl and you have sex with a homeless man with the express PURPOSE of becoming pregnant, I am judging your ass off. Judge, judge, judging. I think you should be ashamed of yourself and that you should be embarrassed. Maybe feeling that way will help you learn a lesson that you so obviously need to learn.
Im judging the parents, too, though not so much. Even the most well-intentioned parents cant control everything their kid does, particularly in this day and age, but still, it would have been nice of them to teach their daughters some damn sense. Im judging the school officials for making it so damn easy and convenient for girls to have babies before they graduate.
Im judging the hell out of all the morons in that city who think the answer is easier access to birth control. Are they not paying any attention AT ALL? Are they missing the part about how this was a pact and these girls set out deliberately to get preggers?
They dont want birth control, you fools! They want to have babies because they think that makes them cool and lucky. Theyre stupid, stupid, stupid little children who have no moral compass and have come of age watching Paris and Britney whoring all over the front pages of magazines and getting wealthier by the day.
They have no concept of shame or of negative consequences. Society has failed them and now theyre going to pay the price, but not alone. Their babies will pay a portion and so will the taxpayers. (Note that the town they all live in is an economic disaster with no jobs, so you know most of these kids and their babies will end up on welfare.)
But thats just me, and Im judgmental. I sit here on my high horse and judge these poor naive children for being marauding narcissistic sluts, but what do I know? I was never lucky enough to give birth at age 16. I guess Im just bitter and jealous because I had those burdensome ideas about decency and having a future and not whoring myself out in order to be loved.
God, I hate teenagers. I hated them when I was a little kid, I hated myself when I was one, and I hate them all now, forever and ever amen.

A Massachusetts high school is facing a pregnancy boom with 17 girls entering summer vacation expecting babies in what some have called a pregnancy pact.
Officials at Gloucester High School in Gloucester, Mass., are investigating whether half of the teens made a pact to get pregnant during the school year, Time.com reported.
Officials said that beginning last fall a large group of girls started asking the school clinic for pregnancy tests, the site said.
Some girls seemed more upset when they werent pregnant than when they were, principal Joseph Sullivan told Time.com.
The pregnancy rate at the 1,200-student school is four times higher than the previous year, and officials were shocked to learn that men in their 20s had fathered some of the babies, Time.com said.
We found out one of the fathers is a 24-year-old homeless guy, Sullivan told Time.com.
The Gloucester baby boom is forcing this city of 30,000 to grapple with the question of providing easier access to birth control, something this largely Catholic enclave is slow to embrace, the site said.
I bolded the money quotes, because that right there is all the explanation you need as to why this shit goes down. The adults have no clue. It is obvious even to a disabled monkey that easier access to birth control would have no impact on a situation like this. These stupid children were trying to get pregnant. TRYING! Oh and by the way, other articles about this point out that most of these girls are 16 and younger.

The girls who made the pregnancy pactsome of whom, according to Sullivan, reacted to the news that they were expecting with high fives and plans for baby showersdeclined to be interviewed. So did their parents. But Amanda Ireland, who graduated from Gloucester High on June 8, thinks she knows why these girls wanted to get pregnant. Ireland, 18, gave birth her freshman year and says some of her now pregnant schoolmates regularly approached her in the hall, remarking how lucky she was to have a baby
The high school has done perhaps too good a job of embracing young mothers. Sex-ed classes end freshman year at Gloucester, where teen parents are encouraged to take their children to a free on-site day-care center. Strollers mingle seamlessly in school hallways among cheerleaders and junior ROTC. Were proud to help the mothers stay in school, says Sue Todd, CEO of Pathways for Children, which runs the day-care center.
Jesus H. Christ. Strollers in a high school? Heres an idea: if there are so many of them that they need their own on-site daycare, create a separate school for them. I think everyone has completely lost touch with some of the positive effects of ostracizing people who do stupid, dangerous things. Its not always bad to impose some shameful consequences, and if thats one way to make these little psychos stop what theyre doing, then good. This is one of the results of the fact that weve decided as a society that being judgmental is a horrible thing. Seems to me that people need to start being MORE judgmental.
