History PlayingWith / ChildByRape

* '''Zig Zagged''': Alice goes to the hospital and gets the rape kit and morning-after pill. But the M.A.P. doesn't work, and she gets pregnant anyway. So she gets an abortion.

* '''Exploited''': For whatever reason (bad luck with dating, not wanting to marry, unwilling to pay for artificial insemination, etc.) Alice deliberately makes herself an appealing rape target so she can have a child.

** Alice decides that a [[GlorifiedSpermDonor being a parent has nothing to do with genes and everything to do with nurturing]], and that because she is going to be the only one raising Charles she is going to be his only true parent.

* '''Discussed''': "Alice wasn't just raped-she's pregnant."

* '''{{Zigzagged}}''': Alice goes to the hospital and gets the rape kit and morning-after pill. But the M.A.P. doesn't work, and she gets pregnant anyway. So she gets an abortion.

** Bob [[BoldlyComing rapes the aliens]] and they become pregnant with his human child.

** Alice becomes pregnant (whether intentionally or accidentally) as a result of raping Bob.

** But then has second thoughts and decides that aborting the child (regardless of its origins) would be bad, either for moral reasons (i.e. she considers abortion to be a sinful act) or pragmatic ones (i.e. abortion is not legal in this setting and therefore performed by back-alley doctors [[OnlyInItForTheMoney more concerned about making money than about the safety of their patients]]).
** Charlie was conceived on the one time that his father ignored his mother's SafeWord.

* '''Zig Zagged''': Alice goes to the hospital and gets the rape kit and morning-after pill. But the M.A.P. doesn't work, and she gets pregnant anyway. So she gets an abortion.

* '''Exploited''': For whatever reason (bad luck with dating, not wanting to marry, unwilling to pay for artificial insemination, etc) Alice deliberately makes herself an appealing rape target so she can have a child.

* '''Conversed''': "This show makes no sense. Alice has been raped and is now pregnant because of that. Her otherwise situation is also really awful, yet she chooses not to abort, even though everything up to this point has indicated that she could have had an abortion and that she isn't morally opposed to it."
* '''Implied''': Alice gets raped. Nine months later, she abandons a newborn baby by putting it in a container.

** Now Alice has inside of her yet another reminder of what happened. She might carry some resent towards it, therefore (and in TV-Trope Land, she wouldn't abort it because GoodGirlsAvoidAbortion. If she does choose to have an abortion in this setting, everyone will know and will behave as though she crossed the MoralEventHorizon as much as or even more than they would towards her rapist(s).) And the child is considered "bad" because his/her biological [[SinsOfOurFathers father did something bad]].
** Alice chooses to give birth to the child, Charles. However, in Alice's country, Bob (Alice's rapist) can claim custody to Charles (even though it's known that Bob raped Alice), and chooses to do so. Alice is thus forced to interact with Bob frequently, which constantly reminds her of the attack. Alice's psychiatric problems caused by the attack are worsened, and recovery becomes impossible as long as he's around.

** But then has second thoughts and decides that aborting the child (regardless of its origins) would be bad, either for moral reasons or pragmatic ones (i.e. abortion is not legal in this setting and therefore performed by back-alley doctors [[OnlyInItForTheMoney more concerned about making money than about the safety of their patients]]).

** The child was a result of semi-consensual sex (e.g. Bob was desperate to get laid, and Alice was ugly and unkempt but the only woman around who would have sex with him, and he got her pregnant)
** The child was a result of consensual but unknowingly unsafe sex (e.g. Alice didn't know her birth control wasn't working, some invocations of ButWeUsedACondom)

** A willing prostitute accidentally gets pregnant.

** Alice rapes Bob [[TheBabyTrap because she wants to get pregnant]]

Alice must choose between protecting herself and her child from ever having to see Bob again, or reporting Bob with the hope of protecting the rest of society from him.

** [[BlackComedyRape Bob is]] a victim of AlienAbduction [[TheSims and is returned to Earth]] [[MisterSeahorse pregnant]] after the result of an AnalProbing or a FaceFullOfAlienWingWong.

** The AssShove / AnalProbing variant involving aliens or supernatural beings, and it is only implied and played for laughs in an absurd fictional universe to the point that it cannot be taken seriously as rape: for example, the alien impregnations in The Sims 2.

** MisterSeahorse and/or UnfortunateImplications laden HomosexualReproduction that involves this tends to be played for laughs, because pregnant men are almost always played for laughs.

* '''Invoked''': See "justified"

** Bob keeps track of his victims' menstrual cycles so he can impregnate them.
** Alice rapes Bob [[TheBabyTrap because she wants to get pregnant]]

** The child is a HalfHumanHybrid because the rapist was some [[NaughtyTentacles tentacled]] EldritchAbomination.

* '''Averted''': Alice does not become pregnant as the result of the rape.
