Under extreme stress and under conditions like starvation/ malnutrition a female can miss or skip periods. It's common for eating disorder sufferers to have irregular cycles. But that comes from a pattern of stress and starvation nothing like what happens in a rape. There's no internal defense granted by nature to females to prevent a unwanted pregnancy brought on by a trauma. I had actually never heard this, not even as a urban myth. The intellectual dishonesty some people are capable of is breathtaking. The depth of some peoples stupidity is jaw dropping. People wondered how someone as stupid as Palin came to high office and came so close to the presidency. Well, here's a new specimen in all his cave dwelling glory. He's not being laughed out of the race. I'm afraid it may be quite the opposite. I think there's a very good chance that he will win the election. Not so much because the majority of people who are going to vote for him believe this rape nonsense but because they don't care and aren't bothered by it.
