Posted by shyla at 11:58pm Sep 23 '09So, are you for it or against it?
I dislike saying I'm "for abortion" because it...sounds icky to me. I am for a woman's right to choose.
Why?
I am for a woman's right to choose because the fetus resides in the woman's body.
When does life begin?
I wish I had a concrete answer for this question.
How late should I be able to abort at?
I'm fine with the current laws.
Do guys get any say in the abortion, especially if they don't want a kid?
I would say they have more of a right if they do want the kid but at the end of the day, it is a woman's body. I can't imagine men would feel differently if they were told what to do with their body.
Should you abort a pregnancy resulting from a rape?
That's a personal decision.
Should abortion costs be supplemented by government healthcare systems?
No. Or I don't know. I would agree to some sort of regulation on it. If the woman's life was in jeapordy..
Is it okay to joke about abortion?
Depends on who you're joking with. I wouldn't find it socially acceptable because you never know who has had one, why, or how it affected them.
Why can't you trick a foetus? Cause it wasn't born yesterday
Ha. That's so old. ;p
Has anyone here had to abort and why?
I have, yes, and for a score of reasons. Some too shallow for me to even say out loud...and some too significant, as well. You didn't ask this but I feel like sharing...I do regret the abortion, now, having hindsight.
