Complete video at: fora.tv Professor Christopher Dye explains the role genetics may play in teenage pregnancy. He sums up an identical twin study which revealed “a strong underlying genetic basis to teenage pregnancy.” —– Homo sapiens have been around for 250000 years – surely long enough to have become fully evolved? It was thought that the dramatic extension of life spans during the 20th century eliminated natural selection, but new evidence shows that to be false. Will selection always …

genetics has nothing to do with a girl choosing a have unprotected sex at a young age. this guy doesnt know what he’s talking about..
I think she was 17.
Shut the fuck up! it can’t be genetic, it’s pretty unfare that it takes Sara Pailin’s daughter to get pregnant to raise the issue, I didn’t believe anyhin he’s sayin I hope I didn’t offend anyone in this comment
bullshit
statistics disagree
people make choices, dont blame your surroundings!
i dont think having kids at a really young age is a good thing but i do think that teenage parents make just as good of parents as anybody else.
Sarah encourage her daughter to start fucking when she was still a Brownie.
rofl DAD AT 13!! LOL man tooooo young and so sad….
still… i had to laugh… im bad too~
why dont u accept that your dirty civillization based on nudity and alcohlism is creating these problems for u?
I think this link is clearly fallible. My incontrovertible evidence that allowed me to come to my conclusion (by means of consolidating all of my aggregate data) is:
how the hell can you take someone wearing a leopard skin tie seriously? :S
what age was sarahs daughter when she got preggers?
i dnt think its enyone biz tbh ! most teen mums r like enyotha mum i think aven kids in 35-40 is wrong as ur bby cud be born with sumin wrong bt yey thay dnt say enyfink bout that!
the way this country is going if the mom already has a daughter and doesn’t want to go through pregnancy they’ll just ask their teen to get them one ^^
He’s really out of breath!
Dad at the age 13……omg, where is my belt, I need to hang myself…..lol
i dont think its right to have to have kidsat so a young age >:( x
I don’t think anyone is genetically prone to making any kind of decision in life. Teenagers are influenced by many things.
perhaps…or perhaps you are particularly prone to hide behind pseudo-intellectual condescension on youtube where people don’t actually know you so you can pretend to be as intelligent as you want, and maybe thats because your intellect isn’t respected in the real world…perhaps…but who am i to speculate?
I did not say that you were trying to hide it. You simply appear to be failing to get beyond your wounded pride. Perhaps you are particularly prone to assume that your medical knowledge is being questioned.
Yes. I assumed that you would be familiar with Occam’s Razor.
The video does not actually elaborate a genetic mechanism (beyond mentioning natural selection — which is tautological).
OK. By what genetic mechanism are women rendered “prone to make socially unacceptable choices”?
You asked me to explain. Now, I’m asking you.
“you are still cmoing from a defensive position of attack…”
??? i wasn’t aware i was trying to hide it. i’m pretty sure i made it very obvious i was attacking you defensively and in response to your offenses.
“please keep occam’s razor in mind..”
did you really just refer to occam’s razor????
“Perhaps you’d like to explain…”
some women are genetically prone to make socially unacceptable choices with respect to unprotected sexual activity. i’m not sure why i’m explaining another person’s findings though…PLEASE KEEP THIS VIDEO IN MIND.
Nope.
“Didn’t you say that you are in med school?”
if that isn’t a challenge to my education, i’m not sure what is. if offense wasn’t intended, i’m guessing you offend a lot of people without “intending” it.
