If you're that desperate to have a child, try adopting; you'll probably get the answer you deserve If she takes any precautions, or encourages you to take any, she's stated her choice in the matter; if you disagree with that choice find yourself some other victim beforehand instead of telling her "I'm all right Jack" afterwards.
