I Am Trying To Break Your Sex Laws #3

And now a little something serious from the mail bag:

“Yesterday I found out that I was pregnant. The father was a womanizer that I had a fling with, someone I knew from high school that turned out to be a sleaze bag. I’m debating whether or not to tell him. I don’t really care what his opinion is and I have already made up my mind on what I would like to do. Am I obligated to inform the douchebag?” – Ani

And here’s your answer:

Black Out Your Windows

I’m not inviting Kyle to the abortion shower. I know he’s the reason I’m throwing one but he doesn’t deserve to drink my box wine, eat my cheese and generic Ritz crackers, flirt with the guests. He can find out on Facebook once the photos are posted.

I rehearsed telling him at first. ‘I’m not ready’ was too vague. ‘I want to erase your future’ was too poetic. ‘I’m too good to carry your child’ was too cruel.

Isn’t the shower crueler? I don’t know. What I do know is that there are some failures worth celebrating.
