Rest assured, these same guys would never concede to having decisions made about their reproductive organs by other people. But they sure do think they should be able to force women to do exactly that.
A baby is not a reproductive organ.

If the anti-birth people had taken the time to watch the video they would see one man changed his mind and called his girlfriend not to go through with the abortion. He was glad he stepped up and his son is now eight.


It's no wonder we have an opioid epidemic now. The men whose wives/girlfriends had the abortion said they both started to sedate themselves with alcohol and drugs. Sad.

No, but a uterus is, which is the organ the forced-birthers are trying to control. Take the fetus out of the uterus and see how far it gets.

Leave a 1-mo infant alone in a field and see how far he gets.
Leave an elderly person with dementia in a field and see how she survives.

Your point?

Oh, right. You think a baby is a female reproductive organ. /eyeroll/

It is not and never has been about her body. The only reason there's any controversy is that there's another human being's body and life on the line. The right or lack thereof to extinguish that life is the entire abortion debate.

Also worth noting: Even after the baby is born, the father has few rights. If the mother wants to put the child up for adoption, he generally has no say in the matter.

But they could survive. Take an eight week fetus out of the uterus and they have absolutely zero chance.

Well, I suppose when you have nothing else, you might as well just lie, right?

I understand that the forced-birthers want to pretend it's not about the woman's body. Because the woman is of no import to them. They make that very clear. Only the fetus matters.

But the women whose bodies will be used to support the pregnancy think differently.

An abortion kills the baby, right? It doesn't destroy the reproductive organs.

The decision is to have a baby, or kill it.

Not, destroy or not destroy reproductive organs.

If you're going to argue, at least remember what it is you said instead of calling people liars.

All the opiate addicts (not even MOST of them) are all forlorn folks who had abortions.
