You just agreed with what they were saying, through name calling and generalizations, right there. They were saying she wanted to get pregnant and putting a general spin on it by calling her a !@#$%. Inappropriate, sure, but I understood what they were getting at.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/!@#$%
Yes, I get that. But you're also ruling out the way !@#$% is used in every day talking. A girl at school gets pregnant, even if she's only having sex with her boyfriend, what do they call her?
A !@#$%.
No here in Telford, we just call them a person. Probably because if your female and 16 it seems just fitting to be pregnant >_>
But even then I don't call them whores I just call them idiots.
Well that's what I call them, but everyone else I know, whether here or in another country, has referred to a teenager being pregnant as a !@#$%. Some were even pregnancies due to rape that the girl decided to keep. So, in a nutshell, I understood what they were getting at.
And even if I'm wrong, they were simply joking about the situation, anyway. Either way, don't take what they were saying too seriously.
But that really isnt the meaning of "!@#$%" though. I dont and have not heard of people calling a pregnant teenager a !@#$%, like Bert said, people just call them idiots or uneducated.
So if I got pregnant now, (I'm 17), would I be considered a !@#$% to you?
No, you missed the part where I said that I called them idiots, as well. I don't call people whores, ever, unless that's what they are.
Around here, though, a pregnant teenager is a "!@#$%," no matter what you try to say to counter it. "She was raped." "Still a !@#$%." "Oh, okay."
So now your a hypocrite?
No. I never once said that I called them whores. As a matter of fact, I totally disagree with that view, having had good friend get pregnant on a night of a simple bad choice.
@Kaede: The people around here are very assumptious. I believe I've only met a few people who would see a pregnant teenager and NOT go, "Oh look, she's a !@#$%." The worst part of it is, some of them are women who were pregnant at 16 and had a child. I, as I've said, merely call them idiots, because I disagree with getting pregnant at such a young age, yet I also understand that they have a free will and what they choose to do is their business.
I would never assume a pregnant person is a !@#$%. I hate the community around here for assuming that.
...Yes you did. In fact. Well that's what I call them.
