How many have you adopted or paid extra out of your fortune to cover their expenses?

Many of the evangelical women I know are as anti choice as the men (non have abusive husbands). Of course it seems its mostly the women who are beyond childbearing years and thats on the surface. I imagine if their unmarried daughters, etc. were to have an unwanted pregnancy that would negatively affect their life and wellbeing they would quietly and secretly support/help her get an abortion.

Think about this for a minute. People are fleeing the liberal states at record numbers because they can no longer stand what those states have become and then will vote the same way in Texas. That is the definition of insanity.

Nope. Most men I know are lovely and rational people. When one is not, like the poster who blames women for everything, I reserve the right to call them out. If that’s “man hating” then I’m guilty. Shrug.

There are some, and that's the point. This bill finally gives them some rights to have a say in what happens to their own offspring.

If most men you know are lovely, what are you basing your man-hating posts on?

What you want the world to be like so you can stay angry all the time???

Yes SCOTUS does give us rights. They are the final say.
You have been told and should know anyway about RvW. This will explain viability and cut off for abortion.
I'm not even sure what you are trying to argue. No one has suggested the right to choose should not have or does not have limitations.
Go back and read the comments. Someone in this discussion is arguing woman should be able to abort right up until delivery. No limitations. No restrictions.

For sure since Texas has zero problems that need addressing. (Glances at antiquated and inadequate power infrastructure that brought the State to its knees over some snow.)

Confirmation bias.

I have found the opposite to be true in my personal experience. The religious parents pitch in and help their daughters to raise the babies during the early years and then gently kick everyone out of the nest when it's time.

It was based on the comments of the poster to whom I responded. I’m pretty sure that’s how a discussion board works.
