Dear Fox News fans: screw you. If you really think the vagina page is erotic then you need to wash up your brains.

Uh last I checked they were talking about the commons section, not the encylopedia section... Plus they were talking about a filter for those under 18.

Are these the same people that wanted PBS censored because one show featured a segment on self-examination for breast cancer with a fully-clothed model?

Are these the same people that want abstinence-only sex education taught in public schools?

Are these the same people that want to segregate boys and girls until they reach the age of majority?

Faux News, go chase yourself!

Cause if minors see a boob Space Hitler may be spawned from a satanic pentagram and force us all to vote Obama.

How exactly is the filter going to work only for those under 18? Do you want wikipedia commons to commit suicide by including a request for the user's age just in case he might be a child looking for porn? Or do you want it to filter by default? (This would be exactly the same as censoring for all).

And no, they are not talking about commons only. They are talking about the whole encyclopedia, and using stats about Commons to justify it.

Your first and third claim you need to back up with sources....

The 2nd one actually makes sense, if kids weren't trying to have sex in the first place we wouldn't see a huge increase in under-age girls being pregnent.

What claims? I'm asking questions, not making claims! Well ... except for telling them to go chase themselves.

If they understood and used contraception, then fewer under-aged girls would become pregnant.

Your second claim is incorrect per the most recent statistics on teen pregnancies as they continue to decrease. And, that continued decrease in teen pregnancies is not attributed to abstinence education.

You are claiming that they want to segregate children by gender, and I don't recall Fox News ever advocating that. Then you are claiming they went after PBS for something that they didn't. They went after PBS for using taxpayer money for political purposes, another phony narative that Democrats (the one that they used last time) was that Republicans wanted to get rid of Sesame Street (when the reality was PBS was using taxpayer money for partisan purposes).

Actually, that only reduces the risk, but there is still a chance of pregnency. The only way to guarentee no pregnency occurring is to wait until you're actually an adult.

QUESTIONS! I am asking QUESTIONS!

This reminds me of when I asked questions in Sunday School, and the teacher would tell me that I was an atheist for asking them.

That's a great point, adult women can't get pregnant when they are married unless they invite the soul of Jesus into their body, otherwise they will give birth to a sinful decadent atheist baby

The only way to guarantee no pregnancy is to censor wikipedia and all the interwebs. After all, the forbidden knowledge of good and evil is in there.

I think chastity belts that grow with the child might be a good idea, besides being a practical return investment since the parent won't have to keep buying new chastity belts

Your "questions" as you call them are using phony assertions... I'm merely pointing out that some "facts" in your questions are in error. Not my problem you're giving inaccurate information.

So, adults don't get pregnant? That's a relief. Or, is "pregnent" something else entirely?

The adult body has mechanisms against unwanted pregnancy
