Pretty sure I.Q. was a psychology development, and sociology was like "wait a minute, this shit's broke."

Women shouldn't vote

Doing what you want with your own body is fine up to the point where you harm another. A baby in the womb doesn't belong to the mother, it's not ownership of an asset that can be disposed at will.

Even when I was pro choice I always thought the argument 'my body, my choice' was really bad

Its not an asset or a possession or much of anything within the first trimester. There is no metaphysical soul that inhabits a rapidly folding mass of cells, especially as the law is concerned. There is a point where it becomes a human being, but within the first trimester that doesn't happen, and its only starting to resemble something human and sentient. In American Law, each state has the freedom to regulate abortion as they see fit after the first trimester, which is fair enough for me, one should make this decision by this time, unless it is a therapeutic abortion and medically necessary for the patient receiving the health care. Prior to the end of the first trimester, its a private healthcare matter, as it actually is.

If men could get pregnant, even only rarely, abortion would cease to be a political issue, and abortions would be available with no controversy. It is a political issue because politics is the exercise of power and women's bodies and the control thereof are still a subject of political discourse, unlike men's bodies for the most part.



I'm pretty sure that's how it went too

At what point is a baby an independent entity? It's literally part of the mother, growing inside the mother. It's attached--we have to cut it off. It's like a tumor.

This makes no fucking sense

what in the fuck is that
why does it exist?
what was going through the sculptors mind?
