I was speechless when I read this account in Discover about an accidental pregnancy that occurred when a girl gave her boyfriend a blowjob.
The thing is, her ex-boyfriend caught them in the act. And there was some stabbing. And, apparently, a hole was made in both the stomach and the uterus, allowing a fluke pregnancy.
How do they know that it had to be the stabbing? Well, when she came to the hospital nine months later, complaining of abdominal pain, this is what they found:
Abdominal examination revealed a term pregnancy with a cephalic fetal presentation. The uterus was contracting regularly and the fetal heart was heard. Inspection of the vulva showed no vagina, only a shallow skin dimple was present below the external urethral meatus and between the labia minora. An emergency lower segment caesarean section was performed under spinal anaesthesia and a live male infant weighing 2800 g was born. (emphasis mine)
Apparently, everyone has reconciled themselves to the situation.
But I’m surprised that evangelicals haven’t seized on it.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Is it just me or is this something that would only happen in the US?
Or maybe Germany, those dudes are crazy!
I’m going to guess actually NOT the States or Germany — the original article says, and I quote: “some cattle changed hands to prove that there were no hard feelings.”
Colour me skeptical.
This is the worst news EVER. Like my gf needed another excuse not to.
@ anon — your gf needs additional excuses to not get stabbed?
@ banana — hey, I’ve got a healthy bullshit detector, too, but the original source is the British Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology. I’m not saying that a peer-reviewed scientific journal is infallible, but you can’t ask for a more credible source, imo.
Ah, the British…that explains it.
“No vagina”..? Dubious.
Could be a particularly barbaric female circumcision — it’s been known to have the vaginal opening sewn completely shut in addition to…well, let’s not get into what it’s in addition to.
@ Colin — It was probably a birth defect, like webbed fingers. I’m pretty sure the doctors involved would have mentioned something about the scar tissue, if it was indeed genital mutilation.
