LOL. This definitely made my day. Especially the (hopefully sarcastic) answer.

This is especially problematic for the baby. How can she take advantage of her abstinence only education when its her mom, not her, who is out whorin’ around?

Yahoo Answers is populated with the dumbest people on the planet.

Sadly enough, I can list at least ten people I know that would ask that question.

My head is spinning at the thought of someone who could pose this question being responsible for raising and educating a child.

It would not surprise me in the least if the question was posted as a joke. While I agree with Cheeeeese that Yahoo Answers seems to find the least intelligent people, I have a feeling most of the incredibly stupid questions are actually from smart people who realize that people will find their post and laugh at it.

@(insert): I hope it’s a joke, but chances are it’s true.  I remember two girls from high school who were woefully lacking in sex ed.  One thought that you couldn’t get pregnant if you did it standing up and in high heels because “it would be too high for the sperm to get up there.”  Her surprise pregnancy debunked that theory for her.  The other girl, who already had a baby and was pregnant with a second, refused to take birth control because “I don’t want to get fat.”  There are some stunningly ignorant people out there.

@Cattgirl The ‘I don’t want to get fat’ comment isn’t ignorant; it’s just stupid.
Especially since pregnancy can also make you fat. And pregnant.

Imagining a Matryoshka-doll version of those pregnancy models you see at the gynecologist’s office…

Well, time to get started on my next art project!

haha this just made my day! i dont think the original question was ask as a joke, but that answer is definitely someone just being funny—it’s too well written to be from someone answering seriously!! Time to bring back sex education before we end up with an endless looping of pregnant babies!

This is so sad, this kind of thinking happens all the time in this state. Abstinence-only education ruins lives. People need to stop pointing fingers at teen girls and start criticizing why questions like these are ever posed.

Don’t be so quick to pass it off as a joke. I met a girl who was 18 with three kids.

bwahahaha… “Complications in an infinite loop.”

And if it were timed right, you could -conceivably- deliver at the same time.

Follow-up: What if you have sex before the fetus has developed sex organs, and it gets pregnant, and turns out to be a boy?  Like, can the boy fetus get born pregnant?

I heard of someone asking if he could have gotten his girlfriend pregnant while they were engaging in mutual masturbation…over the Internet…while she was in a different city.

The funny thing about this question, is your baby cannot, but a woman can get pregnant again while pregnant. One of my best friends and his “fraternal twin” brother were actually conceived three months apart. Apparently, it’s around 1 in 7 million chances.

That’s most likely a troll. There is a lot of them on Yahoo Answers. Or maybe I’m just being optimistic, haha.

Why the heck do parents not talk to their kids about sex? Obviously the schools aren’t doing a good job. And hell, it’s your kid - obviously you know something about the topic after popping one out.

I agree with you Fieldmouse- parents should be talking about sex with their children.  We teach them how to wipe their butts and wash their hands, and Sex Ed is just an extension of how to take care of your body and be healthy.

And if you’re too shy to have the discussion with your child, get the book, “A Child is Born” when yours is about ten years old.  Leave it on the coffee table or some other conspicuous place where your child can pick it up and read it.  The pictures of a woman spread-legged, sweating and grimacing, with a baby’s head crowning is all the deterrence your child will need.
