ABORTION !!!!
Fans debate whether Jerry and George's girlfriends had abortions, citing a reference to "slipping one past the goalie" as evidence that the characters got girlfriends pregnant off-screen.

In the episode when Kramer had to switch from jockey's to boxers, he was afraid he was infertile Jerry and George were in the coffee shop talking, and were suprised that Kramer.... "never slipped one past the goalie"... meaning in my humble opinion..that Jerry and George DID slip one past the goalie and that would mean they have gotten their girlfriends pregnant...which leads me to believe that since there is not a little jerry or little george running around..or even mentioned ..that their girlfriends had ABORTIONS.. what do you think? besides calling me an idiot?

Actually I think you're right
Just because they used that turn of phrase does not make it seem like their characters did the same thing. I got the impression from that line that if anyone, Kramer would have done that. ie, "with all the other ill-planned things you've done Kramer, you've never gotten a woman pregnant?" They were not taking him seriously about his wish for fertility, nor should the audience (when has the audience ever been invited to take Kramer's feelings into account?).
Most likely it allowed the writer of that episode to use a funny line to get a laugh. I'd have to see how the scene went, because if you look closely enough, there could have been - plot description - joke - plot description sitting there that needed a laugh to break it up, but still neeeded the plot description to move the scene from Point A to Point B.
but there's nothing wrong with that.

no I don't think thats what they were referring to. I think its a freference to how many women Kramer has slept with...... heaps more than Jerry & George.

hey burn everything if it's funny

You're not an idiot, but your logic is sort of twisted. You assume that because George and Jerry appeared surprised that Kramer had never fathered a child, then they MUST have each fathered children. As soon as you realize how little sense this makes, you'll understand why your next logical leap is so far off base.
You want REAL logic?
There has never been any mention of any of Jerry or George's girlfriends having had an abortion, therefore no girlfriend of Jerry or George has ever had one.

I agree with you. I assume that George and Jerry have impegnated a woman or two. Jerry seemed surprised that Kramer hadn't because it seemed to him to be a normal part of life. But again, these aren't the most responsible people in the world.

Actually you're right. And the aborted baby grew up to post this on the internet:

Actually he's probably half right. Didn't Jerry once asked George in amazement, "You've never slipped one past the goalie?"

Your opinion is not merely humble...I suspect it has serious self-esteem issues. Jerry is so obsessive that I would imagine he insists on the simultaneous use of 2 or 3 methods of birth control during sex. Please recall George's use of a faulty condom from Bob Sacamano and his subsequent gleeful announcement "My boys can swim!" Also recall George's inability to maintain an erection for the duration of opening a condom wrapper. I suspect he can't go the distance.
Anyway, it is pointless to speculate about this issue. The only person to have an abortion on the show was Poppie's mother...damn those Communists.
