I find it ridiculous that people will say "well I'm pro-choice" or "I'm pro-life" as if those were the only 2 possible standpoints.

I consider myself to be both pro-life AND pro-choice meaning:

I don't think abortions are good and should be prevented/discouraged by all means possible but at the same time they shouldn't be put into the "illegal/criminal" realm.

Shouldn't there be some other happy medium?

Well whoopee for you.
Be anything you want to be on your body; your input and rights stop there.

I chose anti life and pro choice because I feel that too many humans are born every minute of every day and it's just getting worse and worse.

Anti-life, anti-choice, and pro-abortion for the man's sake. Reasons I'm pro-abortion is because the world's overpopulated and there's too much humans have to deal with.

Exactly, I had a right as 9-month old fetus, 8, 7, etc. that my mom didn't feel she had to take from me

I saw you didn't vote but you sound like an anti-choicer.

I would say I'm pro-life/pro-choice.

What choice does the human fetus have? How can an intellectually honest person call it murder one minute after delivery but a "choice" one minute before?

I totally agree with you here. I'm pro- both. LOL! I can not say what one person's life holds for them and what decisions they have to face, so I don't feel comfortable telling them what they can and cannot do with their lives. I do feel that we should give more education to women on what each choice does mean for themselves... and I don't mean showing them graphic horrible movies of abortions, but the realities of what an abortion does to the physically and emotionally. So they are prepared and better educated.

How about anti-government sticking its nose where it doesn't belong?

Well, plenty of conservatives feel pretty strongly that the government should regulate the sex and reproductive lives of the people, fearing they're not smart or moral enough to do so themselves. While they may admit it's difficult to enforce laws against sodomy, they think people should at least use such laws from the government to guide them as to how not to conduct their sex lives.
