Are you saying that stress will not affect a woman's reproductive system???

Please cite your studies --

No, I said that it wouldn’t protect against pregnancy, and the body wouldn’t distinguish “evil rapist sperm” from “loving husband sperm”. I notice for someone demanding studies, you have cited none.

The study that has been cited on this thread repeatedly is the 1996 study by Holmes et al, showing a pregnancy rate of approximately 5%, with an estimated 32,000 rape related pregnancies annually. As I’ve pointed out, there’s also evidence from the Rwandan ethnic cleansing, and probably the Bosnian as well.

There have been many, many cases of raped women becoming pregnant. There is no magic “thing” a woman can do to “shut that down.”
