If we humans laid eggs, would you feel differently about abortion? (party, carry)

I don't want to soapbox on my views about abortion, but another thought came to me reading this just now. If Humans were to lay eggs, would one of us be obligated to sit on a nest full of human eggs till they hatched, or would the Mom simply bury them in the backyard like a gator, or a turtle? I guess they would find their way to the house when they hatched? (Insert picture of cute, dirty babies crawling toward the patio door.)

Since Mom has to endure the discomfort of expelling the egg, it is only fair that Dad should have to incubate it.

Since so many men want a say in the process.....if we laid eggs they could be a part of the process.

Which begs the question, would mom trust dad with the eggs? He might get hungry.

Now, the platypus does lay eggs: two to four at a time. The following chart will tell you everything you need to know about the playful platypus:



Notice that the platypus is surprisingly large: much larger than the gorilla. I was surprised at that. I was not surprised to see that the chicken is smaller, or the snake, although I have seen some very, very big snakes.

Anyway, the real point of this thread should be: anytime you have a creature, like a platypus, that is larger than a gorilla, yet also has a poisonous spur (which the gorilla lacks), then one should be concerned.

It is said that the platypus can eat its own weight every day, which, from the picture, equates to two gorillas per day. Where the platypus has access to that many gorillas, especially in Australia, I do not confess to know.

It is like Groucho Marx once said: This morning I shot a platypus in my pajamas. What the platypus was doing in my pajamas, I don't know.

Why not a Chicken?

All women destroy their eggs almost every month. It's called a cycle. At least until they go through menopause...now let's git 'em!

We don't lay eggs, so this question has no purpose.

Moot question. Something is growing inside that egg!

Yes, I would appreciate it more after I shot it down.
