Reading the thread about the Brazilian excommunications over the 9-year old getting an abortion brought back a question that has often rattled around in my head.
No, I am not going to ask how a 9 year old can get pregnant. Though very rare, I know it is possible for menarche to occur that early. (Heck, there's a documented case of a 5 year old mother.)
No, my question is a little more graphic than that... How is it physically possible for such an act to occur? I have seen my share of adult penises. While I have not seen genitalia for young girls, I can do some mental estimation, based on their overall physical size.
I know that pregnancy can occur without penetration, I somehow doubt that's what those guys are doing...

People like this, who impregnate children, make me really re-think my stance on the death penalty.

Yeah, I expect it was rather damaging. I hurt just thinking about it, in fact.

I expect there was a lot of tearing, and that poor little girl would have been in a LOT of pain. *shiver* It would be entirely possible for pregnancy to occur WITHOUT penetration (though that likely isn't the case here)--all a man has to do is ejaculate in the general vicinity of a girl's vagina and a few little swimmers could make it all the way.
But in this case, there was likely a great deal of damage done. And not just the physical.

And the fact that people are getting upset over the ABORTION rather than the fact that the girl was raped is just sickening. Of course, the Catholic hierarchy and their puppets don't give a shit about the girl...

Yeah, it really is screwed that the abortion is the focus of this.

It was one guy giving in to his unwholesome and disgusting urges and not caring about this little girl.
Ironbite-I wouldn't be surprised if she can never have relations with anyone because of this.

Since she's had an abortion, she won't have to deal with the unwanted children of her disgusting stepfather; if she's taken away and given a new home, a good and loving one, and lots of therapy, I'm sure it's possible she could go on to lead an otherwise normal life after this. Though what with the shitstorm brewing about the whole thing, I have my doubts. Nobody is thinking of the poor girl at the centre of everything.

Regarding anatomy, obviously if she got pregnant she must have reach edpuberty, so she may well have been physically very mature for her age. Courtesy of feministing.com I read about not one but two cases in the UK where men had sex with ten-year-old girls without realizing they were underage... or at least they were able to to convince the judges of that. (Note that it says rape, but it refers to the statutory kind.) Those are much different cases though, obviously this girl's step father knew exactly how old she was. Nor has there been any suggesting as far as I know that she was a willing participant. I'm just using those as an example of how, while rare, a preteen could be much more developed than you would think.

She never would have had to deal with any unwanted children. Her body was physically unable to carry one fetus to term, two was especially out of the question. Not one of the three of them would have lived! That's what makes this even MORE ridiculous. It's terrible that she had an abortion, even though no babies would have survived and she would have died as well! Whaaa?
And yeah... the thought of an adult raping a young girl fills me with much disgust. I'm 27 and not big enough to accommodate penis-sized objects, I can't imagine how it would be for someone considerably smaller!
