Oh, Mr. Hartley, only a man could and would write that letter to the editor. Only a man would think about pregnancy as simple as he seems to believe getting pregnant to be. I am sure he meant well: attempting to buoy women’s spirits to think we are totally in charge and all that. But really, only a man would, as they have for centuries, attempt to place full responsibility on the woman for the results of the sex act for a resulting pregnancy.
Just when we begin to think men are coming to understand their equal responsibility in the sex act, someone like Mr. Hartley comes along, wanting to take the heat off themselves and their buddies. Really?! Either go back to your cave or make the effort to gain better understanding of this matter. Please.
