I guess plausible was poor wording, perhaps "more commonplace" would be more accurate

[Outlaw]

I have indeed seen pregnant 10-11 year old patients that were rape victims throughout my career. It could totally be legit.

Or it could be the Ghost of Kyiev all over again. Don't know. Calling it fake is a stretch.

Not trying to derail but.. are 10 year old girls really starting their menstrual cycle now? I thought having it at that age was exceedingly rare.

12 is the average in the US, 10 is not terribly uncommon.

[Roranora]

rape is pretty common though so it gets some of those puberties even a standard deviation or two younger

It's trending younger on average over time.
Historically (like, since the 1800s) it's mostly due to improved nutrition/health. But there's concerns that factors may be making it happen even earlier now.

I had my puberty very early as a guy. That wispy mustache some guys get in the middle of highscool? I had it at 11.
By the end of my freshman year I had a Commander Riker/Silent Bob/Al Borland beard. And at graduation, I looked like I could have been one of those bearded guys in a metal band.

Will confirm my niece also started at 10. We'll just say she wasn't happy about the time I had to bring her a change of underwear at school because her mom couldn't do it.

So apparently this story is fake news.

Came from a single source who is a noted pro-choice advocate and not a single person has been able to corroborate any part of it.

If the president of the country is using a story to help push a political agenda I feel it should be fact checked before they have him say anything, but I guess we only criticize republican presidents for that?

[kuronosan]

Yes but did she fact check it or is this another distraction op

[Andalusian girls]

can't wait for the mea culpa

[archibaldcrane]

Not sure who got further over their skis here, Krandor or the Ohio Attorney General

"Every day that goes by the more likely that this is a fabrication. I know the cops and prosecutors in this state. There's not one of them that wouldn't be turning over every rock, looking for this guy and they would have charged him," he said. "I'm not saying it could not have happened. What I'm saying to you is there is not a damn scintilla of evidence. And shame on the Indianapolis paper that ran this thing on a single source who has an obvious axe to grind.""

[archibaldcrane]

It's just typical GOP behavior though, fomenting panic over fake child endangerment nonsense while disbelieving actual victims of rape.

[archibaldcrane]

Don't worry, the Wall Street Journal editorial page called this girl getting raped and impregnated "a fanciful tale"

She got raped and impregnated while abortion was legal but the Supreme Court yanked away the right days later.

Also she just had her birthday so she was likely 9 years old when she was raped.

[Krandor]

My bad I guess or something, am I supposed to redact my post now

[NynJa]

Do nothing. Archi never redacted anything about Jussies heinous attack by white people in MAGA hats.

[Salodin]

Totally unbiased reporting from Krandor

lol, I don't think the BG community at large is owed a mea culpa because you were wrong in a few posts in a thread, but it is worth thinking about whether calling out the convenience and improbability of an expected outcome (young rape victims being denied abortions) was really worth it.

I encourage everyone to delete more posts.

Admitted to raping her at least twice.
