I'm actually more pro-life now, but I used to be more pro-choice. I think for the most part that the woman ought to tell her partner if she is pregnant regardless of whether, or not she plans to get an abortion, or have the baby. I also think that the man ought to offer her some financial assistance if she is having an abortion, or if she is having the baby. I think the only logical reason to not tell the guy is if he is going to become violent, or harass the woman, and try to force her to do what he wants. It's the woman's body, and so it should be her decision more than anything else. If a man has a problem with all of this then he add shouldn't ever be having unprotected sex unless he is married. Guys should understand that they can't have their cake, and eat it too on this one unless the guy in question is a seahorse.
I agree with a majority of what you say, but should it not be equally a womans responsibility to also make sure that she doesn't go around having unprotected sex? I mean it takes two to tango, it's an equally two way street to be sure, right? Obviously a man can easily be at more fault, taking off a condom unannounced to the partner...ect.. but if both parties agree to have unprotected sex , i'd argue that the woman and the man equally made the CHOICE to make a baby, and while i'm not sure it would completely negate the imbalance of the fact that the woman has to carry the baby therefore she gets more say, but i certainly feel it greatly reduces her ability to choose and reverts it at the very least... closer back to the 50/50 mark.
In the sense that if the baby didn't have to be carried by anyone, it would obviously be a 50/50 choice because its made of both of them, its only because the woman has to carry the child and give birth to the child that gives her the edge and I'd agree, right to choose. but ya I just feel like if they both choose in the beginning to make the baby, it kind of takes a bit of that choice away from her...no?
I honestly don't understand women who are sexually active, and don't carry, and use condoms. I'm a Generation-X person who lived through the AIDS crisis time. Most of my friends in college were gay men so the nightclubs we went to even handed out free condoms.
Most people don't like the idea of killing babies, no matter how annoying they are. However, legislating what people do with their bodies is absurd. What if there was a law about your bowel movements? Way too intimate and personal.
Yeah, it's all the guys fault. Pffftt. Horseshit. It takes two and now there is a third party in the equation. Sometimes behavior has consequences. Why didn't she take birth control?
Would you tell the guy you're pregnant if you're going to get an abortion?

Everyone is pro-life and pro-choice.

Yeah, that's pretty much how I feel.

Not everyone wants to put chemicals, and hormones in their body. A condom is a very good option.

Not fucking strangers is a sound option.

Well, I certainly don't have a problem with that option. I'm not into one night stands. I also have a saying that I live by, "no glove, no love".
