Keep in mind that if any of this is true, it’s still only true if the baby is viable to bring to term and won’t kill the mother without an abortion. If the fetus is already dead and leading to an infection, or many other things that could happen, bringing the thing to term ain’t gonna help shit.
Yeah people grossly underestimate the dangers of bearing a child, even a healthy one.
Counterpoint: There’s a correlation between being forced to have a child you’re not ready for and having your fucking life ruined.
Causation isn’t correlation.
You have that backwards.
Yes it is.
Causation requires correlation, but not vice versa
It is it? Or it requires it?
The famous sentence is that correlation isn’t causation, the inverse is always true. Correlation means that two things tend to increase and decrease together or inverted, that they both have a relation with whatever else. Causation means that one thing is the cause of another thing, meaning that one or several things increasing or decreasing are the sole cause of another thing hapenning.
By definition, causation implies correlation, but the inverse isn’t true.
Small example: months where more icecream is eaten have an increased average of tanned people, on average. Does this mean that eating icecream gets you tanned? Nope, it means that on summer people eat more icecream (partial causation) and on summer people go more to the beach and get tanned, again, being summer isn’t the causation of getting tanned, it’s just a correlation because it’s sunnier. As we know, being in the sun is the causation of getting tanned.
In any case, either you mixed the two terms or you got confused, I hpe this clarified it :]
Or that was the joke?
You also have a decreased risk of ovarian cancer if you completely remove your fallopian tubes, and it doesn’t require an 18.75 year financial, emotional, medical, and time investment to gain.
Its longer than that these days. I was out for a bit in my 20s but in my 30s I had to move back because there is no realistic way to live in my own house and all I have to show for my work history is back pain, meniscal tear, poor vision, constant migraines, deteriorated mental capabilities and social skills, probably other crap, debt.
I’m also like that. I only have a job thanks to Hungary’s ultra-bullshit public employment program, which pays half the minimum wage for a full time job, because otherwise I would go to the pub drinking.
I have multiple disabilities, with the most severe of them caused by the very medication I’m taking to treat one of them (anti-seizure med side effects are so bad I’m thinking of quitting it, if I die then I die), and only one of them are eliglible for a mere 10% cut of my taxes, if I could prove it to a very strict board which was implemented due to the “welfare queen” myth.
You are also significantly less likely to die from a gunshot if you’ve never owned a gun.
But hey, statistics only matter if they support your already held views, right?
Those parasites from Futurama are better…
Meanwhile these dodos are against stem cell research. 🤦♂️
