So what? Is it commonly accepted in the medical community today?
No but I am sure many have not kept up with the research that refuted this. Keep in mind that they will still abort a late term pregnancy if a woman is serverly injured. And women are often badly beaten during rape. And the actual pregnacies from rape are a much lower percentage than women who have normal sex. So it is not so stupid to assume that their body is doing somthing to prevent the pregnancy.

I think that the main issue is actually that many reject that one should not abort because of a rape. So they make out like it was a stupid statement.

Everyone Loves Korean Rapper's 'Horse Dance'

PSY'S 'GANGNAM STYLE' THE LATEST CRAZE

(NEWSER) – The latest dance craze involves … galloping around as if you were riding a horse. Sounds awkward, but it's caught on, thanks to South Korean rapper Psy (that's short for Psycho; real name Park Jae-sang). "There's a saying in Korean. 'Let's ride a horse' means 'let's have a drink and have some fun,' hence the dance," he tells CNN. His "Gangnam Style" video, featuring many examples of the horse dance, is a total hit, and gyms in Seoul are incorporating the dance into their workout classes.

Plus, other celebrities are jumping on the bandwagon: Nelly Furtado performed her version of the dance at a recent Philippines concert, Yahoo reports, and the CBC adds that Justin Bieber may collaborate with Psy. As for the title of the song, it refers to Gangnam, an affluent district in Seoul, and the recurring lyric "Oppan Gangnam Style" loosely translates to, "Girls, your big brother is Gangnam Style." As Psy explained to ABC News, “Gangnam means, it's like Beverly Hills of Korea. But the guy doesn't look like Beverly Hills. Dance doesn't look like Beverly Hills. ... But he keeps saying I'm Beverly Hills style. So that's the point. It's sort of a twist." Less »
