    reasons conservative premarital sex isn't ironic to a conservative

    birds of a feather, circle the wagons, etc.. groups ALWAYS give their own a free pass. this applies to any group. it only encourages steadfastness.

    the parents didn't reject bristol and they didn't end the pregnancy, all making them appear noble and consistent to their supporters.

    avoid talking sex; talk baby.

    bristol had straight sex, making it a superior state than lesbianism, which would be a choice anyway, right?. (would they reject an out gay child?)
