Atheists, the death penalty and abortion...

It does not answer WHY males should be concerned about her choice.
Other than the supposition that males are nothing but control freaks and should be strangle at birth? "The Universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements: energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest." G'Kar-B5
I think it really is about men who are scared of women having any kind of power that they don't have. Not for everyone, but I suspect there'd be a pattern if you asked them how they'd feel if their female partner had a better job or earned more than them, or how they feel about a female boss.
Never write down to malice what can be explained by ignorance or indifference ladies.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I would like to ask you and every other person in opposition to abortion, how you contribute to creating a sociaty in which a mother or father can have a amily or be a single mum or dad without facing finacial ruin. One reason why abortion was legalised under a leftwing goverment here, was due to the social stigmatising which single mums received from conservatives.

For example, the extremely wealthy will do whatever it takes to evade taxes. Well, men are in power in our world, and they want to keep it that way. Women who go along with this are unfortunately submitting themselves to the system. Power isn't as important to women, because they are used to not having as much. 
No, this is about dumbfucks who think it's OK to kill a human unless the reason is because it's a girl. (fucking hypocrites)
If it's no more than a parasite with less status than a hair, you have no excuse for claiming the moral high ground and judging anyone's reason. The best excuses brought up were "it isn't the same life" and "it isn't human"...

I do not oppose abortion rights for women.
