Since it is such a "hot topic"...could YOU have gotten pregnant at 17?

Question

or impregnated someone..???????????????

Answer 1

No because my parents taught me how to use my brain.  You know it is actually very hard to get pregnant so I really can't see how someone if they have some sort of intellegence can get pregnant.

Answer 2

I'm 17 and I'm not pregnant.I've heard of birth control.

Answer 3

Absolutely, I ****** everything I could at that age. I could have impregnated, sure. But I used condoms. And I'm okay with pre-marital s*x and pregnancy. And my mother wasn't a Bible beating governor who tried to force her morals on everyone else.

Answer 4

I could not have gotten pregnant at seventeen because I have never been sexually active in my life. At seventeen, I was more concerned with school work, college, and my future. Besides s*x was and still is the last thing on my mind then and now. If I was planning on having s*x at any time in my life, it would be when I would be married or financially secure enough to take care of a child.

Answer 5

No, when I started having s*x, I already had an idea of condoms, the dangers of AIDS and other diseases.  

Answer 6

NO.But I went to school with many that did.

Answer 7

Nope.  I was a virgin until 18.  And guess what?  My parents were Liberal Democrats.  We went to Church every Sunday and then some.

They would have skinned me alive had I turned up pregnant.  I was raised Catholic, so no birth control either.

Answer 8

Well, I guess if I had an operation to change my anatomy and someone inserted an egg with my sperm I could see it happening. But that is way too much hassle for a 17 year old boy. Commitment yes, but still a hassle.

Answer 9

Well, as I didn't have s*x till I was 22 the answer is "no."

Answer 10

Could I? Yes, but my mother took me to get birth control at 16.  

Answer 11

i was raised by people like the palin's. no, i couldnt have at 17, but i could have at 18. then i did at 19. now a married mother of 1 and i applaud bristol and her parents.

i told my mom i wasnt having s*x until i announced i was pregnant

oh and i got pregnant the first time i used a condom

Answer 12

let me see...hope this is not too much personal information...OK here goes ...

i started when i was 10 , and was having regular cycles from then up until my early menopause hit .

so , yes , from the age of 10 { 17 ..could have had a 6-7 year old by that point if i chose to have s*x } i could have had a baby physically.  i chose abstinence , so no ..unless raped.. i would not have had a baby at 17.  birth control is important , so many ways to look at that and so many forms. to me abortion is not a form of birth control..at that point it is too late , and it is murder in my opinion. i still stand by it takes 2 to make a baby , and if you both use it , pregncncy is not likely. so many lazy people ...and they choose not to use... it is a shame..

Answer 13

Nope, wasn't sexually active at 17.  Not until 19, after being in college for over a year.  And being the daughter of Democrats who believe in education, I was aware that birth control prevents pregnancy, and actually had the self control to put it to use.   However, our very conservative Republican neighbor's daughter got pregnant at 16 and left high school (this was back in the early 70's).  Her parents hated the idea of s*x education.  I wonder if they hated the fact that their daughter got pregnant at 16 more than s*x education.

Answer 14

I had hit puberty, yes, but my good liberal family values had instilled that I wanted to wait until I met someone special and that didn't happen at 17.

Answer 15

no i couldn't

but it happens
