I don't see why we should stop this. You're basically saying that a woman only has control over her body "sometimes." She either does or does not when it comes to pregnancy.

Also, if we banned this type of stuff, it could be used by the religious right to get rid of more abortion rights. Even though I imagine that this is unethical to most people, we shouldn't ban it because I'm scared of the social right.

I really feel it should be looked at more as a matter of late term abortions, there should be a certain point where later term abortions are outlawed. This particular subject is just another reason why we should consider it

I was reading that it seems we have the same sex selection abortion going on in America. This is troubling, and will lead to trouble in a world with many single males.

"Planned Parenthood’s War on Girls"

snippet from Bethany Mandel's article:

Quote
In a new James O’Keefe-style sting operation on Planned Parenthood, the pro-life organization Live Action set out to prove, and succeeded in doing so, that Planned Parenthood will help any woman abort their fetus for any reason, even the most reprehensible. In previous stings, Live Action caught Planned Parenthood employees accepting donations in order to reduce the number of African Americans born in the United States. This time around, they appear to show that not only will they help a woman abort at the last possible week in order to achieve the desired sex of the baby, but they’ll also give tips on how to manipulate Medicaid in order to do so....

Lol James O'Keefe. It takes an extra chromosome or two to believe that his work is legitimate. It is only through a might feat of collective willful ignorance that anybody believed his ACORN "expose".

It's disgusting because females are superior to males and males are using abortive procedures to maintain their dominance over the better sex.


bitter or repressed?

Congress is voting on this issue tomorrow...

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/05/30/house-debates-bill-to-ban-sex-selective-abortions

Please contact your Congressmen and tell them to vote NO.

This is a gross infringement on a woman's right to choose. It will also cause unnecessary pressure on Asian American women.

I think whatever reason for an abortion should be between a doctor and the parents. Anything else is big-government intrusion

This. If you support the right to choose, then you support the right to choose. Limiting her choices is pretty contradictory if you ask me...

Is there anything wrong with Eugenics?

Certainly practicing eugenics via genocide and forced sterilization is abhorrent, but aborting a child for a specific reason is not a crime.
