    Keep in mind that if any of this is true, it’s still only true if the baby is viable to bring to term and won’t kill the mother without an abortion. If the fetus is already dead and leading to an infection, or many other things that could happen, bringing the thing to term ain’t gonna help shit.

    You also have a decreased risk of ovarian cancer if you completely remove your fallopian tubes, and it doesn’t require an 18.75 year financial, emotional, medical, and time investment to gain.

    Counterpoint: There’s a correlation between being forced to have a child you’re not ready for and having your fucking life ruined.

            The famous sentence is that correlation isn’t causation, the inverse is always true. Correlation means that two things tend to increase and decrease together or inverted, that they both have a relation with whatever else. Causation means that one thing is the cause of another thing, meaning that one or several things increasing or decreasing are the sole cause of another thing hapenning.

            By definition, causation implies correlation, but the inverse isn’t true.

            Small example: months where more icecream is eaten have an increased average of tanned people, on average. Does this mean that eating icecream gets you tanned? Nope, it means that on summer people eat more icecream (partial causation) and on summer people go more to the beach and get tanned, again, being summer isn’t the causation of getting tanned, it’s just a correlation because it’s sunnier. As we know, being in the sun is the causation of getting tanned.

            In any case, either you mixed the two terms or you got confused, I hpe this clarified it :]

    You are also significantly less likely to die from a gunshot if you’ve never owned a gun.

    But hey, statistics only matter if they support your already held views, right?
