So what's your stance?

Personally, I'm pro-choice. Because for one, I believe that that embryo itself, really has no rights as is only a potential and not an actual being. Therefore it should not have rights that take precedence over those of its mother until it is physically born. The mother should be have the inherent rights to make the decision to choose to do whatever she wishes to do with her body. I mean, if we take away the woman’s right to choose, will we begin limiting her other rights also?

Plus, it is my opinion that the unborn is an embryo or a fetus-just a mass of tissue, a product of conception- not an actual human being yet. Abortion is terminating a pregnancy, not killing a child. Since, it has not experienced anything yet, by terminating its development nothing much has been done actually harm it. Right now, it has no mind of its own, besides a brain which is just starting to develop, but since it has not been exposed to anything besides its mothers body,it could not possibly have any thoughts yet, since all thoughts originate from experiences one has had.

Pro-choice, absolutely. And just for the record, I absolutely can not stand when pro-life activists pull the "you're committing a murder" bullshit on me. A human being is an individual who is capable of living on it's own. A fetus is unable to function properly without it's mother's organs until child birth. Therefore I'm not killing anyone (so suck it).

I just fucking hate babies. I have thoughts about going to the Labor & Delivery floor in hospitals, and switching all of the babies’ name tags and charts around. And I really don’t see this as an issue. Stop littering the world with your progeny, especially if you know you should not/can not raise a child.

I thought we had a thread about this, but aside from rape and such like events, Im very pro-life. This is a fairly useless and overplayed debate and IMO it all just comes down to responsibility. As being a 22 year old father I can speak from experience that I could have done things differently and it was suggested to me, but looking back I made a great choice. (Not that it was a decision what so ever) Basically if youre banging, you better be ****ing ready to support a child. This is why we have endless means to not get preg.

On the rape matter, I guess one could abort a child within the first trimester only, and its all very conditional. Not statutory (sp?) rape, but held down and boned kinda style rape.

Stop having sex if you cannot raise a child.

Isn't the outcome of the rape as innocent as the outcome of an unwanted pregnancy?

Consent to sex IS NOT consent to motherhood.

pro-choice, ladies should have the right to not ruin their fuckholes.

Im pretty much done, I dont know why I even post in these threads based on strong opinions and morals. Not a single person in here will ever have there mind changed and I am not mature enough to have a G rated debate on the internet without screaming out "Are you a ****ing idiot?" Aside from that, im also ripped and too lazy to sit here and spend the brain power to debate this for the 10000 time in my life. This topic is out played.

I'm pro-choice, however I don't think it should be used as a form of birth control. I've read some scary statistics about women in Russia having up to 5 abortions before they reach 18. I'm not sure how reliable that information is because as we all know, you can use statistics to prove anything, 95% of people know that.
