Or just Eugenics

@Clive Holy crap, i know you aren't around, but geez why would you link a video from philosophy tube... He is such a simpleton.

@Salacious Swanky Cat Conception is when sperm and egg merge. Implantation is when the fertilized egg reaches the uterus and establishes itself. They are separate events.

@Clive

Ah. Ok.

I thought he was calling the sperm entering the egg implantation

No that's Sperm entering the female body I think

Fertilized egg implants in the uterus

Attaches to the lining and begins forming a placenta

I suppose you could call that conception since it’s when a woman is usually considered pregnant

But in pro-life lingo conception usually equals fertilization

So it depends on which definition you’re going with

That's the problem. No consistency

I've long thought implantation = conception = fertilization

Nope. Fertilization occurs in Fallopian tubes usually. Implantation occurs in the uterus.

But now I think that's not right but I don't have science background or education to know one way or the other

@yuma_8 yumacannyou give a simplistic timeline or order of operations?

I think conception is probably not the most precise term. Fertilization definitely is better.

Okay

You seem smart

Are you asian?

Lol thanks, I’ll do my best

I am indeed

You has the kawaii avatar

Timeline goes like this: woman and man engage in coitus. Sperm enters the woman and travels up her vagina. If the woman is in her fertile period, the cervix will be open and the environment favorable to the sperm, which can live up to 5 days. Sperm travels up into the uterus, then the Fallopian tubes. If the woman ovulates while the sperm is alive, the egg will meet the sperm usually somewhere in the tubes. Fertilization occurs at this point and pro-lifers consider this the beginning of life.

Fertilized egg begins dividing and travels down the Fallopian tubes into the uterus, then attaches to the uterine lining. This is implantation. At this point the woman’s body will begin responding to the implanted zygote and release hormones. Zygote grows into embryo, then fetus.

So roughly you have 5ish days to stop said fertilization if you want to have unprotected sex and be pro life conscious?

No, 5 days is the max that sperm can live inside a woman in ideal conditions

Once sperm is in while woman is fertile, it’s pretty much too late

You can’t stop the sperm at that point. There are millions of them.

Haha idk why but that sentence made me giggle

Unless you take precautions first

I like you

Sorry about Harvard

😜

So where does something like emergency contraceptive fit into this?

Plan b and stuff

I was gonna ask that

Depends on type of contraceptive

I think most pro-lifers say that plan b is abortion

But idk why
