Abortion

Name: Anonymous 2005-03-08 16:59

Let`s start an internet flamewar. Because I doubt there are any pro-life
people on this website, I ask you the following:

How can a woman want to eventually become pregnant and carry the fetus to
term yet when she gets pregnant now have an abortion and not see the
contradiction? How is one fetus deserving of life and the other not? It seems
to me a real feminist wouldn't want her body being "used" by a fetus ever and
wouldn't want to become pregnant.

If these pro-choice women want to become pregnant now they should get their
tubes tied AND use hormonal birth control, a barrier method w/ spermacide, and a condom everytime they have sex. If they ever want to become a parent they should adopt.

Modern medicine can care for fairly premature babies and one day probably grow a zygote into a full term fetus outside of a woman's body. You can't grow a tumor or bacteria into a sentient lifeform. Thats a pretty weak argument.

What I find annoying is that pro-choice people don't want to reduce the number of abortions happening. They see it as a form of birth control. On the other end the pro-life people are usually the type that supports "abstinance only" sex ed. Sure its 100% effective, but unless you get the media and society at large on the same page you won't change kids minds.

People in europe have as much or more premerital sex as americans, but the abortion rates there are much less. Why isn't reducing the number of unwanted pregnancies a goal everyone can agree on?
