Pro-Life or Pro-Choice?

Circe · 07-18-2013, 12:42 PM

That actually Libertarian (try looking the definition of the word up before throwing it around) "don't make me contribute towards the wellbeing of others!" nonsense doesn't fly because the actual issue at hand is people actively trying to force the government to ban an important medical procedure for everyone because it offends their personal sense of morality.

We are one. I'm a hardcore antinatalist myself.

I'm pro choice. Even if I was virulently anti-abortion, I still wouldn't be able to tell other women what to do because of my own views. It's their call. Hence, pro-choice.

By the way, I'm not anti-abortion. Do whatever you want I don't care. I do get kind of confused by women that have multiple ones, like my sister's friend who has had three. Have you heard of condoms? Goddamn.

I've never heard of that before. Intredasting. I was always under the impression that we were headed towards overpopulation, but then after some research I actually found the opposite is happening.

My problem with your link is that is mentions absolutely nowhere anything about sustainability of resources.

Yeah. We've already reached the projected maximum population for the amount of resources and land available for crops, and that part is only getting worse. The next 50 years are going to be ****ed up.

The government is currently trying to pass an abortion legislation here and unsurprisingly this has attracted it's fair share of disapproval and protests from the rosary bead clutching brigade. A lot of people seem to think that legalising abortion is going to result in all babies disappearing off the face of the planet when really it won't make any difference, it's a complete over-reaction and what's even worse is that the Catholic church is adding the fuel to the flames.

I think it's more important that women have a choice and not have to bear the burden of a pregnancy that they can't emotionally or physically handle.

serrriooously, I don't know if most people know the story about the death of Savita Halappanavar, (I'm sure you do) but that was so heartbreaking and unnecessary.

But I'm pro-choice as ****

Pro-life is a cute name. It makes pro-choice sound more like anti-life.
