For it or against it: Abortion

[Gymgurl]

That should get some people going

 

[AAP]

Somehow, I don't think AAP needs to worry about that unless he gets raped.

That is a very real possibility for me each time I dare venture out in public. Hordes of lust crazed wimmin follow me around, I can practically hear their zombified hormones moaning my name as they gravitate towards my aphrodiasic orbit like a meteor hurtling through space.

It's the woman's choice. And choice necessitates... like, having a choice and stuff.

I think most of the anti-abortionists are bible-thumpers who think every one of the 6 billion lives on the earth are important, in which case I suggest they go live in Africa or something.

I'm against it excepting cases of rape, incest or life of the mother being in danger. I am completely against second term abortion because I know of two second term babies who have lived. I am not a religious person - closer to a believer leaning agnostic than anything.

I'm also not going to state my reasons because it's too hot button to be civil about over the internet.

 

[AAP]

what about if you got a woman pregnant and she had an abortion w/o your consent?

If we were not married, her choice.

If we were married, it would require both our consent.

That's the point of the interwebs...stirring up shit that won't change anyone's mind, just for fun...

For if the women or the child might not make it through alive.

 

[AAP]

Be interesting to see what percentage of the pro-life crowd are actually females.

 

[javaguru]

Against it.....Im catholic that is my reason....

Do you use birth control? If you're Catholic you shouldn't....

I love a good debate, in person. But I've seen this one only go sour. On the off topic board for the school I went to for undergrad we actually banned it as a topic because grown adults were so incapable of behaving themselves when discussing this one issue. I also don't want to accidentally step on the toes of a female here, nor do I want to get grouped with the bible thumpers. I was actually pro choice in high school....then I went to college and observed a few (a lot of) things that drastically changed my tune. That's all I'm saying on the subject.

Oh. And I'm not against the morning after pill.

I would have to say I'm against any second or late term abortion except for special circumstances.

I cant imagine what would take so long to decide if you wanted an abortion or not.
