- I doubt that that is what Ms. Garvin believs is hateful about you.
- Just as first-pass guesses, I would suggest that what makes her
- think you are hateful would be saying things like
- (approximately)
- Women who have sex before being married are lower than prostitutes
- because at least prostitutes get paid.
- Gay men hate women.

- Yes, and whenever anyone asks you for any real details you evade
- the question. I will repeat the appropriate question about NFP
- yet again. You have repeatedly claimed that NFP has a success rate
- approaching that of oral contraceptives, and posted some statistics
- which, although not peer reviewed, support this to some extent. What
- you have not, and seem to refuse to do, is posted the percentage
- of time which one must abstain from intercourse to obtain such
- effectiveness. Will you please do so?
