Most of the women I know believe that pregnancy is also a gift. In fact millions of women think that way. Are they all "crazy"?

Look at his handle, and try not to giggle thinking about that.

Welcome to 2012. They thought racial segregation was a good thing in the 50's too. Oh, and come to think of it, they thought women should stay home and that they couldnt have high-powered careers too.

I'll take 2012 for a million, Alex.

Its not a 'THINK' its a fact. BC fails. There is no foolproof BC.

Yes, but I am not advocating for any law that would force people who don't want children to not have sex. Contraceptives and condoms are sold and I fully support their sale and use. I do not support the murder of a human life because its existance is inconvenient and the persons responsible for that life are not adult enough to shoulder that responsibility.

I think pregnancy is a miracle, but I don't want unwanted kids being brought into this world, what happens to many of those kids after they are born is crime.

Why? Because you said so? Who are you? Aside from the people in your microcosm, you're nobody. You remind me of the neighborhood dogs that bark at the postman every damn day. The mail still gets delivered. Keep barking, eventually you'll tire yourself out and go curl up and take a nap.

To someone like me, yes.
Those are the same women that b**** when they get fat, stretch marks, ankles swell, boobs leak, they develop gestational complications...you know, the 'GIFTS' being pregnant gives you. Dont get me STARTED on how nasty labor and delivery is.
Then they are miserable because the kid wont stop screaming, all she wants is sleep, she never gets to go out anymore, her boobs still leak, the stretch marks are still there and hideous....Kid grows up, brings home boyfriends, girlfriends, wants money for everything...kid is an adult, STILL needs things...


Yeah, some damn gift. RETURN TO SENDER!

We are discussing aborting babies - that is murder. If your argument is that murder is only the unlawful taking of a human life - then you are correct that abortion currently isn't legally murder in the United States. That is like arguing that slavery wasn't really bad because it was "legal" at one point.

Babies can't be aborted. An embryo can't be "murdered". Do try to keep up son, I know this all may seem a bit overwhelming to you.

Once again - if you think that BC is unreliable and don't want a baby - then don't risk the possibility of a pregnancy. Abstain.
