Anti-abortion leftists are a distinct (though sometimes vocal) 
minority of LBO-talk subscribers (who probably number about 300, 
including lurkers).  That said, you don't wanna have heterosexual 
male leftists who are against abortion running around chasing women, 
much less girls; they ought to refrain from having intercourse unless 
their partners are ready to have babies or they have vasectomy 
performed on them; and women are well advised to shun their sexual 
advances.
