Welcome to Gaia! ::

I'm on the fence this is a tricky subject that gives me a headache to even think about.

I'm pro-choice as well. [not much of a debate going on, huh? xd ]

I'm a little tricky.

Personally I'm pro-life. Having been through a stillbirth (I lost my firstborn, who was very much wanted, to unknown causes at 36 weeks) so I could never seek to do that. We've chosen to never have to go there-- there are nice surgical preventitive options.

Politically, however, I'm pro-choice. While I could never bear to seek an abortion I could never politically force this choice on another woman. I know there are times when it's the only decent option, and it needs to be rare but preserved.

(needless to say I'm a huge believer in responsible family planning, contraception, and ounces of prevention)

Most pro-lifers (the ones actually standing and harassing outside of abortion clinics) are closed-minded about abortion.They seem to think abortion is for whores. That's the common misconception. It indeed is a last resort.
For example, a girl in college that has a path that cannot be disrupted. One night she's at a friends house her friend has a couple friends over also. She starts talking to one of them and then one thing leads to another. A week later no period. She thinks that it's probably a few days late, no biggie. Another week goes by, still no period. She gets a little worried. She waits a few more days, nothing. She goes to the drugstore and gets five different pregnancy tests. They all say that she's pregnant. She goes to the doctor, says the same thing. Now she's freaking out. She's in college, she has a job lined up, but her plan has no room for a child. So what does she do? She looks up a local abortion clinic. She goes, someone consults her by telling her what it's going to be like before and after the procedure, and then asks her if she really would like to go through with it. She's sure.

She's not a whore. She just was having a little too much fun.

They think way too much then.

I'm Pro-Choice.

I think Every women should have the choice to have an abortion.

Before you say anything about "oh it's so wrong you are murdering a child", you aren't. At the time of the abortion it's like ingredients to a cake, not the baked cake, so it is not a completed ,fully functional human.

Also, If it's against YOUR religion, It's exactly that, YOUR religion. Just because it's your religion, doesn't mean everyone practices that religion.

And my last point. What about rape victims? What about teenage pregnancies? What about someone with some medical problem who would die if they had a child? You cannot say that those people should HAVE to have that baby.

Personally I do not believe in killing a fetus without giving it a chance life, so I am against abortion.

However, I also do not believe in forcing my opinions on others, therefore I am pro-choice.
