Why??
Posted: 04-12-07 23:47pm

Why, in this day and age, are we so readily able to accept the ending of a life in the womb??
It seems because it is legal to have an abortion, that some women think of abortion as just a "procedure"? Is this to soften the actual truth, that women who have abortions are ending a life?
Ok then, I am waiting for the pro choicers to shoot me down and, tell me how it really is. That the right to exercise their right to "choose" is important. BS!!

In this modern day and age, not everyone is christian nor do they adhere to christian-like philosophies.

Women, in this day and age, finally have freedom over their body.

We ladies have the right to have sex when we want it and as often as we want.

We have the right to control our bodies too; and this includes removing unwanted parasites from our wombs.

Women these days know about life, and they do not all adhere to the ancient mythic traditions of spiritual christianity. They are not held down by false, ancient, science-less interpretations of procreation and human development.

Just as we no longer believe the globe is flat; just as we no longer think the sun revolves around us; so now we also know that there is not a fully grown little person inside the womb.

As science develops, we learn more and more about the development of a fetus. We learn when it feels pain for the first time; we learn how it develops and what it is capable of at each stage.

When this fetus is a wanted child, then it is the miracle of biology. It is the wonder of evolution.

When this child is unwanted, it can be a noose on a young woman's neck. It can be the tolling of the death bell; it can earn her a social stigma; it can ruin her life.


But there is a light: she has control over her body. She can chose to give birth and give the child up for adoption... but if she knows about the horrors of adoption, if she knows that preventing pain is more important than soothing it; if she believes that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure... if she knows these things, then she has the human right to chose abortion.

Human rights... yes, abortion is a human right.

And I am thankful for it.

Because we are unable to accept the needless, unnecessary loss of .actual .women's lives through unsafe, illegal abortion attempts.

Putting emphasis on life should not come at the expense of the life that already does exist - the .woman.

Quote:

For some .women, it is just a procedure. For others it's not. Who are any of us to decide which .women's experiences are legitimate and which are not? For me, it was just a procedure. A life saving, life affirming procedure.

Quote:
Is this to soften the actual truth, that women who have abortions are ending a life?
.women know what they are doing, it's not a mystery or a secret. Many .women make their peace with what they are doing because they feel they have no other viable choice. For them, they are compelled through their circumstances to have an abortion. If you don't want them to obtain an abortion, you have to change their circumstances in real, substantial ways. Real, lasting change has to occur in order to allow women viable alternatives to abortions.

All of our rights are important and they can be vitally important to us when we are oppressed and unable to exersize them. Someone you know may need a choice - I did when I thought I would never be in that position.

I actually think it shouldnt matter to you what other women do with there unborn babies if you believe it is not right to have abortions well keep it to your self and make the choice not to have one dont bash on other peoples believes to have abortion there are many reasons why a woman would want to have an abortion.... so next time before you post think of those reasons..

good day!

Oh, my word, this is such a vulgar way to describe the most wonderful thing a woman can be blessed with. I am guessing that you will never want a child the way you talk about a child growing in the uterus.

i think the oridginal poster needs to sit and think long and hard about this. I don't particularly like abortion and it's not something that i would personally do but we have a choice on how we treat our bodies. if the choice of abortion is available then why shouldn't women take it if they don't want to have a child? Like i said i don't think it's a particularly nice thing to do but if other people want to have abortions then who are we to stop them, they have a brain, they can think for themselves

Just because a woman is able to make choices, doesn't make every choice she make. "moral"!

Although i have to say that i don't agree with the parasite s=comment you made. I myself am 30 weeks pregnant and think that you will find that in the final trimester it is proven that a baby can feel pain.

Why does it need to be killed in order to terminate the pregnancy then - unless it is living in the first place? I think you might have your facts a bit mixed up... Wink

Why
Posted: 04-13-07 09:07am

women have choices and some choices women make can be the hardest they have to make I would never have an abortion by choice but 8 years ago I had to have one because my baby stopped developing inside of me and they had to take it away I was 16 weeks so does that make it a baby i think so.

But a lot of young girls out there do fall pregant for what ever reason and they are still only children themselves I agree with alot that has been said and everyone will have there reasons for abortion and its them that have to live with it for the rest of there life i no that i remember the day i went for my scan and the day they took my baby a way from me and i still have a cry but it was not my choice and I could never make that choice and i some times wonder how hard it must be (but then again some people use it as a form of birth control which I do think It is wrong people like that should be sterilized)

thanks

Umm, this probably deserves no response, but here you go anyway...

I would hazard a guess that "some women" who become pregnant do so not through loose morals or inattention, but plain bad luck (or good luck-depends on how you see it). People who use birth control get pregnant. People who are in commited relationships become pregnant. People who have had their tubes tied can become pregnant. Nothing is fail safe. Certainly these "s luts" become pregnant by coyly cajoling some poor unexpecting virginal adolescent to come and have sex with her for the purpose of becoming pregnant and then throwing up her hands and saying "oh what shall I do?" It certainly has nothing to do with males asking them for sex. it certainly has nothing to do with the media worship of the nude female body and the sexualization of youth at a younger and younger age. it has nothing to do with the signals children receive from television and movies. It has nothing to do with adolescent double standards which dictate that if a girl sleeps with someone she is a promiscuous person. If she doesn't then she is stuck up, and becomes unpopular.

What we need is more eduacation and fewer imbeciles calling sexually active women "s luts".
