so chances are about 50/50 that you will have a child if you have sex 50 times. It's a crummy lottery, and you choose how many tickets you want to buy.

That is simply not true. The 97% doesnt mean its 97% each time you have sex, so if you do it 50 times, youll get pregnant. The percentage is the chance you have, if used correctly, over a year.
