Abortion/Consciousness/Life

[Dystopia]

Obviously, if I got pregnant I would get an abortion ASAP. That way I wouldn't have to deal with the emotional trauma. However, if let's say I were to wake up from a coma 8 months pregnant and amazingly my baby is perfectly healthy....I would still have an abortion. It would be hard, very hard, but sometimes the right choice doesn't feel/look good. Sometimes you have to make the right choice even when it hurts and even if everyone thinks you're a monster.
I am the only person who gets to make that choice for me.

Of course, but that is perfectly justified! It's different. But let's say you knew about the deadline and only wanted to make an abortion 8 months later, just because you voluntarily didn't care about it - What sense is there?

I like to put myself in women's shoes when discussing this, I can't do it perfectly, but I'll tell you this - If I was a female and I got pregnant now, I'd abort ASAP just like you said, and I'd like to have that right - In fact I'd abort if I wasn't financially stable and psychologically ready to raise a baby (which I am not currently) - But I wouldn't do it 8 months later, I'd think about it and make the decision - The sooner the better. It doesn't mean late term abortions shouldn't be allowed - They should, but I see more justification if there is a strong reason. It doesn't constitute a severe problem, so it shouldn't be outlawed, since most women anyway have reasons to do it.
