I definitely can't see him being okay with what I imagine he views to be the death of a baby.

I don't see why you would assume he would feel that way. One could just as easily argue that he would enthusiastically support a woman's right to control her own body and life.

Unless you meant letting young single mothers with infants starve because of some paranoia about "welfare queens," or a refusal to protect women and children from domestic violence, because he would definitely be opposed to that.

I also imagine that he would be quite taken aback by the notion of gay marriage given he was taken straight of of the 40's,

He also grew up as a scrawny kid and an artist. You think he didn't know any gay people, and see how harmful anti-gay bigotry was?

I love how so many people are getting bent out of shape over my comment. It's like some people are actualyl personally offended a fictional character's politics might not match up 100% to their own.

No, I'm not 100% convinced he would support abortion if he believes that this "right" leads to the termination of a life. This would go back to the question of when he believes life begins, which we obviously don't know. He believes in God so that could definitely affect his viewpoint.

lol Where are you even going with the second part of your comment? Did I not say that I could see him agreeing with welfare? He's Cap, of course he wants to help poor people. This might come as a complete shock, but a person doesn't have to agree with either of the parties 100%.

And again, the last part of your comment is simply ridiculous. Yes, I'm sure he knew gay people. And BECAUSE he knew gay people I'm sure he would be shocked at the notion (NOT necessarily opposed, just taken aback). It's not like he came out of the 60's. Gay pride was not a concept expressed in the 40's; homosexuality was generally kept quiet. Seeing gay people freely express their sexual identity would be a welcome, yet ultimately unexpected, change.

I love how you think I'm getting bent out of shape. I'm just telling you I disagree with your conclusions and don't quite understand how you reached them.

I think Cap could very easily be able to understand that the abortion issue isn't actually about "when life begins," but instead whether a woman's body belongs to the woman or to the fetus. The second part of that comment was explaining what he might interpret as "killing babies" instead.

You didn't say "surprised but pleased" in your original comment, and I'm not a mind-reader. Though I still disagree; Cap strikes me as more the type to see the world how it should be, rather than how it is, so I think he'd be more relieved than surprised to find that gay people are being treated like people in the future.
