Whenever I ask a question about something I need to figure out & it has to do with my baby, there are people who tell me to ask the father & when I tell them there isn't one they shake their head in mock sorrow, ask why I didn't "wait for the right one"(or say, "we all make our own choices & then we have to live with them"), & I can tell by the looks they give they assume I'm inadequate, or worse yet, a "welfare mommy". Why do a lot of people assume all of this without stopping to consider the possibility of rape? I never 'chose' to make a baby...a choice was made for me, my body chose to form a baby, and I chose to let her live & love her. If so many rapes are happening every day, why is the possibility of rape pregnancy so overlooked?
