A Very Controversial Topic Is Now Happening

[bodie]

It bothers me very much that the state thinks it can decide this.

Sometimes people are handicap to a level which allows govenment to make medical decisions, if they have no legal guardian. However, there are other logn term birth control choices available.

you can have an implant in your arm, just under the skin - lasts three years.  surely its better than surgery.   anyway if she is so unable to make a decision,  how did she consent to sex??  surely the authorities should spend there money on looking for the unscrupulous bastard that took advantage of her??   that is what concerns me - is someone working as a carer,  or in a hospital taking advantage of women like this???

This does not surprise me. However, it is interesting to note that no one in the article argued whether the woman would have the ability to care for a child. If she can care for a child, it is hypocrisy for the government to insist on sterilization. If not, then that is one of the issues that should be raised in this case.

Facts have no importance to bureaucrats.

AFAIK it's not illegal to take advantage of someone who is severely mentally disabled if the disabled person consents to sex, as long as they are past the age of consent, and the person taking advatage is not a carer, teacher, doctor, or whatever. There's also the possibility that the guy is also mentally disabled.

Yes, peoples relatives shouls step in and do this instead.

I still don't see why the state can't force long-term contraceptive measures if it can force a sterilisation.

Because the state is stupid and self-righteous.

In the early 19th Century Herman Melville, the later so famous author, was in Liverpool as a sailor. He happened to find a mother and her children literally starving to death in a cellar. The idea of killing them out of mercy occured to him, but then he thought: "The English Crown wouldn't spend 10 shillings on feeding these poor people but it wouldn't hesitate a second to spend a thousand pounds to find me and drag me to court for putting them out of their misery."

That sums up the stupidity and heartlessness of the state perfectly both back then and to this very day.

This or she could have an injection every three months, that would work too.

My ex MIL was on forced oral contraceptives after a very similar thing.

Some girls do have a very developed sex drive, a mature body, and the ratio of an 8 year old. Happens. And you can't keep them under surveillance 24/7. Can't really deny them their needs either. They are mature in many ways, just not in ratio.

In the end, we're animals.
