Dear Abby: I just read in another advice column that a 17-year-old boy got his girlfriend pregnant accidentally-and they were both virgins. They didn't actually go all the way, but he got the girl pregnant just from "fooling around." Can this be true? San Diego Reader
Dear Reader: Yes, it is true. Here's an excerpt from my booklet "What Every Teen Should Know," written several years ago:
How to Get Pregnant
One of the questions I have been asked often by teens is: "How far can I go without getting pregnant?"
That is not a dumb question. It's a very intelligent one. A lot of kids get aroused by just lying close to each other while kissing. Then they just naturally proceed to the next step, which is petting.
Sometimes they remove some of their clothing because it's "in the way," or they burrow underneath it to explore each other's bodies with their hands. This is known as heavy petting, or "doing everything else but."
The technical (and legal) definition of sexual intercourse is "penetration." (The male's sex organ must penetrate the female's.) However, as impossible as it may sound, in the medical literature can be found cases where there has been no penetration-the girl remained a virgin but, after engaging in heavy petting, she found herself pregnant.
How can that be? Simple.
The boy and girl were lying very close to each other (unclothed), "doing everything but," when a small amount of sperm leaked out . . . near (not inside, but very close to) the girl's vagina. The sperm got into the moisture around the vagina and found its way up into it, and fertilized the egg!
So it actually possible to get pregnant without sex.
