Insurance companies are also starting to charge more if you are overweight or smoke. Pretty soon they'll probably be charing us for our specific DNA code....

I liked how you phrased your stance: "I happen to be Pro Choice and my choice happens to be Life. I will not stop you from choosing death but I will try & convince you otherwise." Very nicely put.

Great response

My attitude is one of no abortion after six weeks, two months maximum. Anyone choosing abortion as late term as 6 months, for example, should be forced to spend five minutes studying the child they murdered

If all men used condoms or (for those unprepared to support their children) had a vasectomy, there would be far less abortions for them to protest about. Never mind men claiming contraception is the woman's responsibility --- just wear the condom or have a vasectomy and stop trying to pass the buck

Reminder for men: a few years ago a prostitute came before the court. She'd given birth to almost a dozen drug-addicted babies. Their fathers were her customers

Coinciding with that item of news was another, concerning babies and children with disabilities and other problems who were being kept in cages by the people paid to care for them

So out there are family men who go home at night and help their legitimate offspring with their homework, whilst in a cage or cowering in a filthy corner somewhere are their illegitimate children, products of three minutes in an alley with a drug-addict prostitute

Children born to prostitutes don't just conveniently die and blow away. Nor do they enjoy pleasant lives. Many drift into prostitution themselves. Almost certainly, legitimate sons unknowingly have sex with their half-sisters on occasion and very possibly more unwanted children result

Any man who's had unprotected sex with ANYone has no right to an opinion about abortion

In this day and age, although I agree to a point, the onus should fall on both participants, that drug addicted hooker can use contraceptives too. Any man who would have unprotected sex with a prostitute is dumb. period.

Scott Roeder was convicted today in Kansas of aborting the life of Dr. Tiller, an abortionist who would not stop. It appears that Scott became what he hated.

Forget the religious discourse. Forget the this Dr. says this, this Dr. says that.

On the form for Life insurance & for Health insurance besides "do you smoke" is "have you had an abortion". They don't ask if you have had a miscarriage because that is the body taking an action. They put all your answers in a table & get an answer. They can void your insurance for giving false answers.

You pay extra for insurance if you smoke or have had an abortion because those actions cause harm to the body in a calculabornle way. They charge a higher premium and have never been stopped by anyone for charging this higher premium. They can prove it from their tables.



First and formost, I am well aware that multiple abortions are not good for a women. On the other hand I don't believe as so many religous fanatics believe that women are little more then baby making machines. I think these people with such narrow minds are pigs, man or women, it makes no difference. These @#$%^&*( people so quick to call themselves "pro-life" never seem to have a problem killing those already born, in order to save the collection of fetal matter they call the unborn.

I think abortion is always a very unfortunate situation. And to have an abortion as late as Tiller did them? If up to me, such a late abortion would only be done for medical reasons. REAL medical reasons. Why? At that point the fetus is just to well developed. I don't know what it can feel or become, and in many ways I'm very conservative. You support adoption over abortion? Thats great. Get off you religous ass and put up the money to make it happen. It's not cheap, covering the cost of a pregnancy. Not willing or able to do that? Then shut the hell up.

It may take two to tango, but only one of us completes this dance.

Actually, abortion IS all about my body. It is only about the choice I have to make, whether to allow the parasitic cells that cannot survive outside its host (me), to grow into a viable human being, or to abort the growth of those cells before they can leach any more life from the host, my body.

What does a man's view have to do with this decision? Nothing, because once the man removes his member from the host body, his involvement is complete, and anything else that occurs in relation to the sex act fall squarely and singularly onto the female's shoulders.

If a woman shares her pregnancy with her man, that still falls under....her choice.

Oh,so they're....parasites...Nice way to make em sound quite unwanted and i have no idea what else.

Diet is all about your body,abortion is about your body and the creation of two people.
A new life isn't a property which belongs to the one who carries it,it's something created by two people.Just because women carry those "parasites" doesn't mean it belongs to them.

Again, I have to disagree with you, what comes out of my body is so my property. The government says so. If I mistreat, abuse or neglect to properly care for the new "property", I can suffer consequences, legal and otherwise. There are hundreds of laws that govern how I must take care of my new "property".

Thus making the initial choice of to carry to term or terminate even more important! In my opinion.

Technically any living creature which requires a host subject for its very own survival is a parasite.

But what i'm saying here is that the fact that they're in the mother's body doesn't mean that it's just up to them.They have fathers too.
