Abortion and Women's Rights

[Losty]

I have three children and I am still pro-choice.

Uh, OK.

I'm pretty sure the majority of people who have abortions already have at least one child also.

Yes, it's about 60%.

Uh OK

You are such an asshole just saying.

Anyways, I disagree with your statement that women who are pro life are pro life "Because most of them have been pregnant and had children and from their experience believe that an unborn child is a life with value."

I think most women who are pro-life are pro-life for the same reason that most men, because they think sex is bad and the think women deserve to be punished for having irresponsible sex.

For me, and I assume for many others, this is a matter of idealism v. practicality. I don't think it's morally correct to abort in the case of rape, but I'm "OK" with making that concession if it would reduce abortion overall.

You know what would reduce abortions overall?

Sex ed! Using fucking condoms, because you were told why you needed to use them!

Who have the most abortions? Fucking religious people!

Who's having abortions (religion)?
Women identifying themselves as Protestants obtain 37.4% of all abortions in the U.S.; Catholic women account for 31.3%, Jewish women account for 1.3%, and women with no religious affiliation obtain 23.7% of all abortions. 18% of all abortions are performed on women who identify themselves as "Born-again/Evangelical".

Religious people who are fucking, but not using condoms, because they think it's either "a sin," or you don't feel like educating your children on the basic biology, and prevent the school system from doing it as well.

You want to reduce abortions?

Educate your kids. It doesn't matter how you feel about it, they're going to have sex, and if they're women, they're going to have a lot of sex, roughly double the sex your average male child will have.

Stop being so fucking religious. That would lower abortions by 87%.

This exactly the most important step is to stop teaching children that sex is bad or shameful.

The second step is real sex education. When I was in 7th grade we had sex ed. It was a series of pictures of penises and vaginas with terrible deforming std's, followed by a stream of single teenage mothers with broken dreams, and finally the if you have sex you will get STDs and unwanted babies and your life will be ruined speech. This isn't what we need. We need real sex ed. We need to teach about responsible choices and how to have sex without getting STDs or pregnant.

The last step is making birth control (including the morning after pill) cheap and easy to access for everyone.
