I could, but the question is would I?
Since i'm a woman, I guess it wouldn't matter if my boyfriend is pro-choice (since I never have to worry about him having abortions sweatdrop ).
As long as he doesn't force anything on me, respects my choices and would help me or at least support me and my choice if by chance I ever got pregnant (I would try to wait until marriage or serious commitment before sex cause there is less chances of him running off and all but things don't always go as planned at times).

Mcphee I have to say that it would probably be pretty easy for me to date a pro-choice male, since I'm gay, and neither one of us has to worry about abortion.
But if I was a straight male, I would find it kind of difficult to date a pro-choice woman. Especially a hardcore militant one who sees the fetus as a parasite, or something, and thinks that you're disrespecting women by being pro-life.
Maybe that's why I'm glad to be gay. I don't have to deal with all that woman's stuff, and all the moral relativism that comes with it. Wow, Mcphee already said everything I was planning to write gonk . Darn it I'm too late!

I.Am This has bothered me for a while. If you had been dating someone for a while, and found out they were Pro-Choice, would that be immediate grounds for dismissal? Are there only certain circumstances in which you would stay with them? Or is it completely irrelevant to you? Furthermore, if your girlfriend/wife got an abortion, what would you do? I mean, the obvious answer would seem to be dump her/divorce her, but then again, maybe you believe in forgiveness? Or she immediately regrets it and changes her ways? And I know it's a slightly different situation with women, since a Pro-Choice male wouldn't be making the "choice" to get an abortion. For me, in most cases, it would quickly end, if not right then and there. I'm sorry, I'm tolerant of the Pro-Choice side, and I can be friends easily with a Pro-Choicer, but a girlfriend? I mean, what if something happened and she got pregnant? I'm sorry, but I can't take the risk that my girlfriend would decide to get an abortion. On the other hand, if it was someone I'd known for a while and/or I really liked, and she convinced me that she was "Pro-Life personal, Pro-Choice political," then maybe. But I would have to be absolutely certain that she wouldn't get an abortion. And if she did... I don't know. That's so mindblowingly disturbing a thought that I just don't know. I like to think that I believe in forgiveness, and I'd forgive her if she seemed sorry, but on the other hand... Also, slightly unrelated, but it annoys me how Pro-Choicers don't really have to worry about this. I mean, real Pro-Choicers who support the woman's choice; If their girlfriend turns out to be Pro-Life, okay, that's a choice. If their girlfriend's Pro-Choice and has an abortion, okay, that's a choice too. If they're women and they find out their boyfriend's Pro-Life, it's still not going to affect whether she can get an abortion or not, even if it would add guilt and the complication of a likely breakup to the getting of an abortion. Discuss!
I wouldn't... I'm a pro-life girl, and I'd want support if I got pregnant, not, "come one, get an abortion".
Not to mention if you married the guy...

No, I could not date a pro-choicer. I heard about a girl who got pregnant as a teen and her bf was going to dump her if she had an abortion, and she was torn. I would not be able to be in a relationship with someone who would want to(or COULD) terminate OUR baby. It would conflict with my views and heart too much.
It won't happen.

I could date a choicer, but if she killed my baby I'd probably assume that as grounds for retribution. An eye for an eye. wink

I could not ever date someone who I knew was pro-choice. Never ever even if I thought I loved them, the concept of abortion sickens me so deeply that I could never be with anyone who would even consider it to be anything less than cold blooded murder.

i think it depends. My girlfriend is pro choice, but her view is that she wants abortion to go away as soon as possible. She feels that there's not a sufficient system in place to deal with the fallout of suddenly banning abortion, and until that can be set up, it needs to stay legal. We only disagree on when, i say now, she says as soon as it's reasonable by her standards. Both of us value human life, so in that light, i say it's ok.

Thankfully my husband has the standpoint of "its your body, do what you want with it." And since I'm very pro-life and am never going to even consider abortion, we're on a fairly good understanding that abortion is not an option for us. And he's good with that; especailly since he wants a butt load of kids.
We do disagree on issues of pro-life such as rape and medical circumstances; but again it all comes down to "its your body, do what you want with it." He supports me in my decisions to do what I feel is necessary with my body when it comes to carrying another life.
I'm not sure if I could date someone with vastly different values than mine namely religiously and morally. I tried that once; I dated a pagan who was pro-choice/anti-kids and that just ended up in massive disaster. So, if I weren't married, and was still dating I think it was be massively contingent as to circumstances, their reasons, and then serious thought.

Personally, yes, I could date a pro-lifer.
Most of the pro-lifers I know approve of abortion in life-threatening cases. In my case, that's sure to be all the time..
But then again, I don't plan on premartial sex anyways.
