Pregnant By Swimming?
Filed under: In The News, Weird But True
Did a teenager get pregnant from swimming in a hotel pool? Photo: sxc.hu
Surely this lawsuit will be thrown out of court on inconceivable (pun intended) grounds. First off, wouldn't the chlorine kill any random sperm? But even further, did Ms. Kwiatkowska follow every moment of her vacationing daughter to prove, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that she spent absolutely no time with anyone of the opposite sex during their Egyptian holiday?
The only reassuring thing about this story, perhaps, is that frivolous lawsuits are not exclusively an American thing.

akcath said...Once I was walking down the street and 9 months later I was pregnant. I wasn't walking with a guy, but I did lean against the traffic pole which is probably why my baby goes from yellow to red to greed and every once in a while starts blinking walk don't walk. My mom was really lame and didn't believe me when I told her, but now when she sees the baby turn colors I think she's starting to. I swear on my baby's life that this is a true story. Really!!!

Karen said...OMG.. I think this is the most riduclous claim I've ever heard. I cant believe anyone ( including you Jeff ) would actually think this is possible. It is beyond me how blind & down right stupid people can be. This mother is definatly in denial. I actually almost have to feel sorry for people like this.

natalya said...The mother needs to stop embarrassing herself and admit that her daughter got knocked up, but more importantly the girl needs to admit what happened. This lawsuit is beyond ridiculous and the hotel needs to countersuit for the lady's stupiditity.

Nancy DeSimone said...Wow, I'm ashamed of myself now! I edit medical reports and I didn't even notice. I had to read it several times to find the mistake! Goes to show what I've been trying to tell them - it is not easier than transcribing because our brains are wired to read a word as long as the first and last letter are right.
As for the pregnant girl, was she skinny dipping? Because not only would the super sperm that survived the chlorine have had to swim to her, if she was wearing a bathing suit, it would have had to get through that, too.
Also, if by some huge stretch of the imagination this did actually occur, how on earth would it be the fault of the hotel? Maybe their sperm detector was broken!!! (My brother-in-law used to tell my kids that he had a pee detector in his pool.)
