It's not a political opinion, you douchecanoe. Abortion is a personal medical decision that should be the business of the person having or considering an abortion, and no one else. So fuck you, pro-lifer. You're disgusting.

Yeah, it's a political opinion by definition, whether you like it or not.

It must take a lot of energy to have that kind of blanket hate for such a large percentage of the population. :/

DA

It actually doesn't take much energy to hate people who think I shouldn't have the right to decide who uses my body. Wanting to take away my rights is a behavior that makes it easy to hate someone.

Interesting, I generally think of hatred as a very draining feeling that I can only feel for so long before I just want to let it go.

The thing that makes it seem particularly difficult to me would be the large amount of people that includes. Maybe where you live there aren't that many pro-lifers or something, but it's about fifty percent where I live. Do you, like, ask everyone you meet what their position on abortion is so you know whether you hate them or not? If not, what happens when you become friends with someone and then find out they're pro-life? Do you just break off that friendship and never talk to them again?

Aren't you special.

Why yes, fyi, thinking you have any say over what goes on with my uterus is a dealbreaker. You and your ilk are scum and I want nothing to do with you.

be madder it's really funny

Well, I'm glad my pro-choice friends are more rational than you.

Generally I'm willing to give people the benefit of the doubt, until they express a heinously offensive belief or opinion. Then we're done. Wanting to take away my right to my own body and turn me into a brood-mare for the state is a heinously offensive opinion. I don't spend my spare time concentrating on hating these people, but when they impinge on my awareness, that's the response they get. Not draining at all.

Being asked to save the life of your own child isn't the same as being a brood-mare for the state. Especially not since in 95% of the cases you were responsible for creating that child in the first place.

+1 for rationality.

deal w it nerd

Oh, grow up.

Oh shut up, you moron. I'm as pro-choice as the next pro-choicer, but responding to pro-lifers with hatred and insults is not the way to go. Nor is it going to change anyone's opinion on abortion. It's just immature and pathetic.

It's the personal medical decision to not volunteer your body to safe the life of your offspring. It is absolutely a medical decision since pregnancy always comes with a risk, but to imply that it's a medical decision akin to having your appendix removed is very callous. Abortion always mean that something, or someone, depending on your philosophy, dies.

To some people it is akin to having my appendix removed. I certainly treated my abortion as such. You may not feel that way, but many women do so please do not talk like you know how everyone feels about the subject.

Better safe than sorry. I'd rather offend someone like you than the majority who are logical enough to understand there's a big difference between a foetus and an appendix.

Wow, so because I don't treat my own abortion with some kind of importance that you think I should, then I should't be treated with respect?

Sorry if assuming there is a chance you understood biologically offends you, but rather that than really trigger someone who is hurting. If those are the stakes, then yeah.

Most women who have abortions aren't anywhere close to drowning in depression afterwards like the anti-choice want to pretend. Majority=not what you think.

No shit, Holmes. Glad you can do your homework. But a foetus? Still nothing like an appendix. An uneducated dunce is the only kind of person who would ever make that comparison. Anybody who associates a foetus with an organ needs psychological help.

I'm sorry. I wasn't very clear. I didn't mean the emotions of the women who have abortions, I meant the ethics surrounding abortion (and by extension how various people may react to the
topic. Abortion always mean the death of something/someone and that's why it's different from regular medical treatment.

Chemo causes the death of tumor cells, sugar, and antibiotics kill bacteria. Quit talking out of your ass.

I think by "something" she means something with its own set of DNA, etc. It's entirely different from just ~cancer cells~, stop being so dense. Christ, I swear abortion turns everyone into a raving imbecile.

Neither of those things have their own dna from the host or will grow into a full-fledged person. If you check pro-choice blogs, literature etc you won't see anyone arguing that a fetus isn't a human being in the biological sense. That argument was over and done with in the 1970s.

If you can't accept that abortion ends with the death of a human life, then maybe you need to re-think your position on abortion.

"to imply that it's a medical decision akin to having your appendix removed is very callous"

I agree with this.
