Getting sterilized isn't impossible, either; I'm waiting for my gyno to get back to me with a referral.
Good luck with that. Most doctors refuse to perform a tubal ligation on a woman unless she is over a certain age and/or already has multiple children. It's not impossible, but it almost might as well be.
Apparently it's not almost impossible, because my gyno knows I've never been pregnant.
Congratulations. Once again, you've based your opinion on the assumption that everyone else is as fortunate as you. You've never had birth control fail, so other women MUST be irresponsible! Your gynecologist has agreed to give you a tubal, so it MUST be just that easy for everyone else!
Your privilege, your willful ignorance and your complete lack of empathy make it nearly impossible to have this conversation with you. You can't imagine, and don't care, what it might be like to be faced with an unwanted pregnancy. It must be nice living in a nice little bubble where your perception of the entire world is based on your experiences. But outside that bubble, everyone is as lucky as you.

You still don't get to enjoy sex in the way that you'd like.
And I don't get to drive the way I like, keep all the money I earn, or post tubgirl in this thread. Life sucks. qq moar.
If you're going to be this callous and cruel in your condemntion and control of other people's sex lives,
say so in the first place. Don't try to flip it around and say that we're the ones dismissing and insulting other people's sexual preferences.

Now where's my proof that I would be a second-class citizen without legal abortion?
There is no compromise in the situation of unwanted pregnancy. Either the fetus has a right to life that suprecedes the woman's right to freedom, or vice-versa. Dodge it, twist it all you want, but criminalizing women forces them to endure pregnancy and childbirth against their will. They are being subjugated for the sake of a fetus. The fact that they think and feel and suffer is ignored because some people believe that a fetus is sacred.
If I got pregnant, Zin, people like you would force me to give up my rights, my body, my safety, my health, my freedom, my morals, and possibly even my very life because of their superstitions.
And you are
laughing about that! It makes me sick.
If you had your way, a woman's rights would go out the window the second a zygote hit her uterine lining. THAT is second class citizenship. Placing the whims of the majority over the well-being of a minority makes them second-class citizens.
