  Weirdos end up on Lemmy. Many of us are a splendidly wonderful, if pedantic, sort.

  And then there’s the weirdos that… aren’t that. The ones who never built social skills or the ability to look at the world from beyond their own limited experiences. The ones who extrapolate with reckless abandon, usually in the traditional directions of punching down.

  I’m sorry if they or someone they know got baby-trapped, but that is DEFINITELY not the usual nor should it be phrased like it is.

    I’m more shocked at the amount of upvotes the comment has.

      His point isn’t wrong. He could have explained it better but telling a teenage boy how to not get girls pregnant regardless of what they tell him is not a bad idea. I definitely had experiences with girls I slept with telling me not to worry about it and at least one of them went on to have a teen pregnancy by another dude. They weren’t trying to trap me. They were just dumb. So was I and I got really lucky that there were no consequences. Teenagers say and do dumb shit and the more cognizant your son is of that the better.

        Women will baby-trap the living fuck out of young men. He NEEDS to know this.

        The above sentence is the one I’m taking a stand against. The rest was fine up until that.
