Talk:Sexual intercourse
"which could lead to a pregnancy if the sperm reaches the woman's egg in the fallopian tubes." <--- this would lead to ECTOPIC pregnancy, which is a serious and life-threatening condition that is probably still not a good enough reason to justify abortion to some people.
[edit] Definition of sex
Has the definition of the word "sex" changed so that it now only includes consensual acts, and excludes rape? See for example this comment about child sexual abuse, "When it comes to terminology, sex is the word that is used to describe a consensual experience. It does not apply in this situation. It is important that we use the correct terms because the word 'rape' carries a heaviness, a meaning, that 'sex' does not. Describing it as sex tends to minimize the perception of damage. Once the perception of damage is minimized, people start to wonder if maybe the child wasn't asking for it in some way." There are a lot of people these days insisting that the word "sex" is semantically incorrect to use to describe a rape. I'm not sure when that started; I don't remember hearing people say that until the past few years. Landmartian (talk) 08:14, 19 February 2015 (UTC)
