Woman wants to have baby. Dad does not want: He has no say and will be sued until the child is at least 18 to pay for it.

You can say "it's a woman's body!!" because you were brainwashed or feel empowered or whatever that crap is---you know it's not fair.

2 people make a baby; 2 people decide if and how they wish to raise it.

(Of course in special cases of rape and health, etc it's a different situation)
But........only ONE person carries the baby for 9 months, only ONE person faces health risks to carry the baby, only ONE person has to give birth to the baby.........so ONLY THAT ONE PERSON gets to make the dicisions.

Life is not fair........get over it.

What If I am pro life but would consider an aborortion only an extreme circumstances..

and I am pro choice but would favor laws restricting abortions for extreme cirstances

ie... risk of death, rape, incest, under the age of 14, ect ect..

you could cut it down to like 4 or 6 choices tops

Can we please stop this merry go round??? Understand!!! WE HAVE MORE SEX NOW!
No sympathy.

YOU started this ridiculous poll.

YOU kept it going when it was prepared to die a dignified death.

YOU can look at the numbers, not see what you wanted to see and continue to hope that if you run your mouth long enough, the numbers will change.

Or YOU can take your ball and stomp off home in a huff, because you are NEVER GOING TO CHANGE PEOPLE'S MINDS, no matter how long you insult and berate them. Especially no matter how long you insult and berate them.

This was never an actual "poll" to begin with. It was your own personal soap box. People are not giving enough gravitas to your opinion so you keep shouting it louder.

For Pete's sake, just stop it!

That's part of being a woman. If you don't want to get pregnant, don't have sex.

Have your cake and eat it too? As in all the sex you want with no real consequences that you can't simply walk away from. Physically. Biologically.

A man who walks away from his responsibilities is just as bad as a woman who tries to get out of them, in my opinion. A deadbeat father is no better or worse than a mother who aborts a child.
