It's really honestly amazing that there are so many people in this world that don't understand that, A, married couples use birth control and have regular sex and, B, that birth control can fail.

Are they all incels are something?

"Your child its a miracle from god!" - anti abortionists

Unfortunately, a lot of people who are under the influence of religion believe that marriage is for creating children, and many of those people received very little to no sex ed.

The ideas that "every child is a blessing" and "God will provide" are used to handwave away the importance of people's bodily autonomy and to deflect the reality that people can and should have access to the resources to chose if, when and how many children they have.

I've taken to calling them reproductive luddites. They're afraid of contraceptive technology.
