I had to go the family planning clinic to stock up on pills for my round-the-world trip (my new GP has a rule that they will only prescribe 6 months’ worth - the clinic takes a much more sensible view). I had to fill in the form and was slightly puzzled by the question:
“Are you aiming to:
(a) avoid a pregnancy?
(b) achieve a pregnancy?
(c) both?”
I’m not sure under what circumstances somebody would tick (c). Maybe if they were trying to achieve some kind of quantum Schrodinger’s foetus, a la Amy Pond.
