Personally, I am against abortion - I'd be happy if there was never ever another abortion. But I'm in favor of a woman's right to choose. In an ideal world, a woman would never have to choose to have an abortion. But this ain't an ideal world, is it?

abortion is not a choice..abortion may be a CONSEQUENCE of her prior POOR CHOICES

btw, the pill is VERY AFFORDABLE, walmart,cvs,walgreens all offer a generic drug program for 4-10 dollars, which include the pill

Some people are so selfish they wouldn't allow an abortion if a woman had a dead fetus inside her. They would hold hands, and "pray" that the fetus comes back to life, and keeps growing. Never mind my income. I am common sense Pro Choice.

And some women are so selfish they would have an abortion if the fetus was developing with the "wrong" gender or eye color.

Common sense exists on both sides of the issue. I'm pro-choice for the first four months, then unless the life of the pregnant lady is in jeopardy I'm willing to call it a criminal act (but not murder) with specific penalties for both the lady and the "doctor" after that period (including fines and/or jail time).

Abortion is a choice, it has been a choice for thousands to years.
Let's give every male a vasectomy at birth, it takes sperm for a woman to get pregnant. Until a woman can get pregnant without sperm, it takes two.

Failed birth control and rape are two reasons to have an abortion.
Trust me, if I were ever to have been pregnant, I would have aborted in a minute.
It's none of your business what a woman does with her body; it's between her and her doctor.
Read A Handmaid's Tale.

Abortion is the law of the land.
You don't get to choose for anyone else.
Thank ford.

thank you...it does take TWO,,,therefore it is NOT a womans choice...bith a choice of BOTH donors



but the FACT remains the same...the woman would not get prego if she didnt spread her legs.

she MAKES the INITIAL choice:
its a womans RIGHT to say no
its a womans CHOICE to have sex or not
its a womans choice to have PROTECTED sex or not
its a womans choice to have contrasepted sex or not
its a womans choice to tell the man to put a 'raincoat' on
its a womans choice to send the child to ADOPTION instead of killing it
its a womans choice to GIVE UP THE rights to that child and give it to the father

after that, it is not longer just her choice...it takes two to tango.....thank you for proving my point

Money doesn't buy happiness or a sense of right and wrong or love of your children. I would expect that people who love money more than anything prefer it over the lives of their own children, because all along one of the biggest reasons they've used to kill their own offspring had to do with money, they love money more than life itself. Love of money doesn't always correlate with actual income.

He's a donor, big deal.
What about all the men who leave women who are pregnant or who have babies.
It's not your choice.
A woman is not an incubator or slave to be forced to carry something she doesn't want in HER body.
When you get pregnant, you get a choice.

Until that time, abortion is legal in the US.
What are you going to, hold her hostage and force her to give birth?

Abortion is legal.
Might as well embrace that idea.

sorry but she would not be pregnant if she had made the CHOICE not to have sex, OR to have protected sex OR to have contrasepted sex...all CHOICES

woman certainly are the first to hold the man hostage, if they choose to keep the kid.....first thing out of a womans mouth is 'you helped create it, now you going to pay'.....so much for EQUAL CHOICE
