Your comment reminded me of the time a Capt . in the Navy said to me, who was pregnant with number 4 or 5:

"Don't you know what causes that?"

Before my better sense could could prevail, I quipped back:

"Ahh, but we ENJOY what causes that!"

He blushed and so did I.

Another time, a stranger, upon learning that I was pregnant with number 8, sidled over to my young teen daughter at Price Club, and says, "You should buy your parents a TV for their anniversary".

She didn't get it, thankfully. But I said to him in an aside,
"oh, no, not a TV! There's too much sex on TV these days!"

LOL

It makes me so mad when strangers (or even family members) say things like "Haven't you figured out what causes that?" As though CHILDREN were an unwelcome product of sex!
