And there will always be pedophiles who will prey on children. Should we also have dispensers popping out prepubescent Justin Beiber look-alikes at gas stations? Or maybe pre-marital sex is accepted among Pakistanis now, in which case I did not receive the memo.

Wtf? Pedophilia is a psychiatric condition where someone 16 years or older is sexually attracted to pre-pubescent children (source: wikipedia). Pre-marital sex is not a “condition” or illness. I never suggested that we promote pre-marital sex. But pretending it doesn’t happen is stupid.

@doppelkopf

This place is schizophrenic, just the other day a poor bloke was bombarded with ahadis and Islamic references left, right and center by the holier-than-thou ladies, and here they are, advocating birth control for 15 year olds. How unenlightened and ignorant of me, right?.

Calm down. Advocating the availability of birth control is not the same as advocating premarital sex. The option to safe birth control? Botched back-alley abortions. Yes, I’d rather have a young girl get access to BC than die bleeding all alone.

@doppelkopf

At any rate, over the counter availability shouldn’t even be a problem. The 15 year olds can always go up to their enlightened moms, and ask for some.

Life isn’t always so simple is it?
