our sex ed and birth control awareness suck.

But are these stats from ultra-conservative groups? Because I know some groups consider ordinary birth control pills as a form of abortion. Then they average that in some how.

ill double check, i just pulled that from an entry i read and was shocked.... i didnt think they would add bc in there, b/c most peopel use bc...

I'm not sure thats accurate. There are approx 4 million births a year. I sincerely doubt one in four pregnancies are aborted.

If that is true, that's disgusting. A good friend of mine just had a miscarriage and she's heartbroken, and to think that that many women do that shit when people who actually want children can't have any.... that's just really fucked.
