I'm not fixated on anything except that women are entitled to full control of our own bodies. I didn't say anything about it being a struggle, I was referring to the fact that pregnancy and childbirth are big changes in a woman's life, physically, emotionally, spiritually and financially, sometimes to the point of being crises, and she must be able to choose whether or not to go through those changes. No one else has the right to decide for her.
There are enough children in the world already, some would say far too many, and I fail to see the point of adding to the already large numbers of unwanted, unloved, neglected and often abused children and that includes children taken in adoption.
Have you ever been pregnant and given birth? I think not and if you're male, I don't want to be rude, but you can't possibly know how that can affect a woman. Pregnancy and childbirth can be wonderful but they can also be hell if the woman has no choice in the matter.
Please note that I am not arguing that abortion is a good thing, but it must be a choice available for women facing unwanted pregnancies because the alternative is compulsory motherhood and compulsory childbirth.
Finally, to all you anti-abortion people out there, are you also opposed to contraception? If not, why not and if so, are you aware that it sometimes fails?
Is it normal to believe that men should have no say in abortions?
