The stigma is quite high in the LDS church I think. I'm not sure there is a pressing need to make the stigma even greater.
I remember meeting an attractive young woman on my mission who was LDS, but quit, after what she described as hostile treatment in her ward when she became pregnant out of wedlock.
How many LDS pregnant teenagers, young women, are sent away to hinterlands for their convalescence, so they can away from prying eyes and inquisitive minds?
