Abortion?
 

Yay or Nay?

I would have been a dad 3 times over without it.. :(

Was it your decision?

I hate it.

me to....

no comment...

Fortunately it was mutual..I dated women who were dead against it as well and would take me to court if I ever did knock them up..I'm glad I got my vasectomy..no more worries

I'm personally against it and got into a pretty heated debate about it earlier today and was served with a pretty profound question.

What if your wife was raped and got pregnant by the rapist? Would you have the child knowing that A) it's a product of a violent crime against someone you love and B) a constant reminder of the attack.

I will say, it got me thinking and was a profound question.

I say it's the people's decision ... Sometimes it's better to abord then to have a baby and not take care of it proprely. That's my personal option. If you can take care of him perfectly, and you do it out of selfishness, then you are wrong. But anybody who is less then 20-22 years old in most cases can't be perfect parents.

It's a no.

Here's the only post I'll ever make about it.

If you're raped by a mongoloid cousin...sure. If there is a medical probability that if you carry full term you'll die...sure. If there is some other reason, medically speaking, that the birth could end up in disaster for either mom or kid...sure.

If you got drunk and split your legs cause some dude said you reminded him of Britney Spears...fuck no. It should NEVER be a form of birth control. Atleast give it up for adoption if you were too fucking stupid and irresponsible to prevent it in the first place.

Thanks for bringing this up.

I don't believe in abortion as an alternative to birth control, but I also don't agree that abortion shouldn't be a choice. The problem is the happy medium.

The FANATICS...yes FANATICS will tell you that under the scenario you suggest, it is NOT the fault of the baby, therefore, abortion should not be an alternative.

Now, I don't use the term fanatic loosely, but when someone tells me that my wife should walk around with the constant reminder of an experience such as a rape, and THEN give the baby up for adoption...THAT is MY definition of a fanatic.

P.S. I phoned a pro-life office to see if their point of view was the same as I've heard the media spew, and not distorted in any way, and the answer above is exactly what I got. I agree that it's NOT the fault of the baby, but as merciful as these people pretend to be, it's merciLESS for them to think any woman should walk around carrying the baby of her rapist.

i believe in the right to choose. i do think it's murder, but in certain circumstances murder is the right choice.

Freedom of choice, but as a form of birth control, not a good idea

i think it should be mandatory

too big of a discussion for this forum

My gut instinct says pro-choice

but I have to say after seeing a few late terms first hand I think it needs a lot of concideration and should not be just a "I cant be bothered, lets get rid of it" thing.

Upto 12 weeks go for it - after that you need a damn good reason.

No way..
 

For God's sake....use condom...

hate it


alot

no way, totally against it

Yay, but only if the girl gets it done within a certain amount of time

Against it. It's selfish and irresponsible... just like most parents are these days though :disgust Its lose/lose either way. I hate idiots... there should be reproduction laws in the US. :mad:

Note: rape and incest victims are in a totally different class from women who do it out of 'convenience' and other cowardice reasons.

I won't tell a woman what to do with her body and neither should someone else.

Nope, it's life, and taking it away is murder..

If you are into abortion then you are a murderer.

Mmmm... Generally not in favor - there has to be valid cause. It's absurd to think of abortion as a birth control alternative. If adults have that attitude, they need to grow up more.

On the flip side - it has nothing to do with anyone else what a woman or couple (and health professionals advise), decide to do concerning termination. There are many circumstances where it's impossible to legislate on this, and better laws, govt and everyone else stay the fuck out of it.

It's not an "issue" - it's a private matter for those involved, - but not something that needs to be abused by stupid adults.

I think abortion is just as bad as jacking off in a girls face and killing millions of little sperm. That's just my opinion though.

Its easy to say that its murder...but there can be too many situations in life, where its the only way. Actually, my opinion is - only woman have rights to choose. Woman will need to live all life with that thought.....
P.S. Condoms are NOT 100% safe...

dont agree with it

totally disagree about it...

People who have abortions should be rendered sterile and unable to have children. That should be the price they pay, and will help ensure the proceedure is ABOSLUTELY necessary.

as long as the pregnancy isn't a result of rape and the mother is over 16 abortion is a big NO ...

That scenario comes up everytime abortion is argued.

i'm for a woman's right to choose for herself
