Document Summary

How sex leads to babies: production of eggs: you want the fallopian tubes to open, matured sperms from seminiferous tubes that developed normally, strong enough to pass the cervix mucus and contact the egg. How sex does not lead to babies: stop ova production and transport, oral contraceptive -> keep estrogen level high enough to prevent fsh surge, cutting or clipping fallopian tubes, stop sperm production and transport. It is hard to stop or control the production of sperms: stop sperm transport via performing discectomy of vas deferens, barriers to ova-sperm contact. It is frowned upon -> less support: extended adolescence: people have to be trained to be independently functioning in the society.
