An Inclusive Litany

3/16/99

The Washington Post reports that after Kellie Smith became pregnant, the man she was living with, Peter Wallis, sued her for becoming pregnant against his will, for violating an agreement to take birth-control pills, and for "intentionally acquiring and misusing" his semen.

Smith counters that she was on the pill at the time but that it was an accident, and that she could not have stolen his sperm because "he surrendered any right of possession to his semen when he transferred it during voluntary sexual intercourse."

Smith gave birth to a baby girl, by the way.
