Women and men both have a right to bodily autonomy. Restricting women's right to abortion is actually the thing that would create an imbalance between the sexes by removing the bodily autonomy of women.

Yes. If a man gets pregnant, they absolutely have the right to have an abortion. No one, regardless of sex, is forced to carry a fetus to term in this country.







That's some serious circular logic there... LOL

Not really. I think the question you need to ask yourself is: what rights does a fetus have and when do they obtain those rights?

Abortion should never be the answer, unless it’s an extremely rare case where having the baby will cause the mother to die. You don’t want to raise the baby, ok, give it up for adoption then

No. That's what you're discussing. I'm discussing why the abortion argument is too little, too late.

It's definitely the woman's right not to GET pregnant. But no one has the right to kill babies coz they were stoopid.


Nobody is killing babies this is the uneducated take of a person who never needed a landmark supreme court case to affirm his rights wishing to command and control lesser humans.

At earliest when they can be viable outside the body. This will change with technology.

if white ladies started adopting black babies as a fashion statement like a coach purse we could solve the whole thing.

Lol no.

Women have a right to manipulate their body. So do men.

I agree with this position but a majority of the country disagrees. I've suggested that we pay women the fair market value to keep unwanted pregnancies to discourage abortion but no one seems to want to do that.

So is the "new entity" automatically a person?


Yes.

Quote (fender @ Dec 3 2021 11:24am)
so a fertilised egg is already a person to you?! even before it's attached to the uterus that is?

are you sure there are no religious sentiments behind that "opinion", because that is one of the most extreme stances an anti-choice advocate could possibly have, and usually i encounter them in religious zealots, not your run of the mill women-haters...


At no other point in the entity's existence does it cease to be the mere genetic offal of its parents and becomes a new entity. That means it's a distinct human being, and should be endowed with human rights, which include the right to their life.

Plenty of time to murder the child after it comes out.
