Abusers often commit reproductive coercion in teens using several different methods of deception. Teenagers are often scared to talk about it. Some feel like a complete fool when they find out the truth. Some teens don't know how to tell their parents what happened behind closed doors regarding the coercion. Here are five ways abusive men commit reproductive coercion in teens.

Men Replace Birth Control Pills With Same Looking Type of Pills

Abusive men are very good at conning women into reproductive coercion by switching out pills so that she intentionally gets pregnant. He uses this tactic as a form to control her and deceive her. His inner goal is to trap her behind that cruel intentions. Some men go as far as to use food coloring to make it the same type of color as well so teens don't suspect a thing.

Men Poke Holes In The Condoms

Teen girls don't realize sometimes that men poke condoms in their own condoms that they walk around with in their purse too. Men will often poke condoms that they have in their wallet when she isn't looking such as being in the bathroom for a few minutes. It is deception which is a form of abuse at the same time.

Men Throw Out The Birth Control Pills

Men will often just throw out the birth control pills in the trash. He will often refuse to pay the fifty dollars or more to have her get the emergency morning after birth control pill from the pharmacy. His control of money is a good indicator of abuse right there. His intention to destroy her life by trying to attach her to him for life by her pregnant without her consent is just outright cruel.

Men Take Off The Condom Without Telling Her

Abusers will put on a condom at the beginning then at last minute take it off without telling her. Sometimes they put it back on just to make it look good by claiming that is kinda slipped off, but he tells her that she has nothing to worry about. Several teens often overlook this one since it seems like that could happen so they don't think much of it til it is too late when a missed period has happened.

Men Tell Her That She Has No Right To Say No Towards Him

He forces him upon her. He commits reproductive coercion against the teen no matter what she says. It is a form of rape, but she doesn't realize it. He may even minimize what he did to her against her will. He even tell her that that only one she has to blame is herself since she was in a relationship with him.

This type of actions done by men is a form of rape. She did not consent to having a baby. She did not consent to having things forced upon her that she didn't want. She was blindsided by this behavior from the abusive man. It was deception behind her back that was premeditated by him.
