It's amazing how many people on this forum freely admit they have no self control over their own actions. Scary.



Great idea. If you're a incontrollable bedhopper... off they come.

So don’t worry, you can just move to another state because you’re that concerned about getting knocked up.
Or that concerned with living in a state that places so little value on women's bodily rights. One or the other, right?

Keep minimizing this, but it's actually a pretty big deal.

Well if you are moving for political reasons...abortion then you would not have been living there to begin with.

No. Nobody is moving for that.

People likely are moving because they want to live in a state that places value on a woman's right to choose what to do with her body.

I have never met anyone who had four abortions in a year. Or total, for that matter. And I've lifed half my life in NY/NJ and the other half in Los Angeles.

It is about rights. Remember when conservatives were screaming all over airplanes because they had to wear one piece of cloth? Well, um...now voters of all kinds are up in arms over the decision that states can tell women what to do with *their* bodies, and it involves something a little more serious than wearing a piece of cloth.

So let's not hear sarcastic minimizations hinting that women would move to all corners of the earth so they can have seasonal abortions like clockwork, shall we? It's pretty dishonest.

I'm sure hundreds of millions of people will be moving soon to leftist states under your assumption..yes ?

So in your book they aren't moving for access to abortion but on the principals of having abortions readily available.

Says who? Moving is expensive and unless you have a guarantee of a job out of state you are probably staying where you are until you do.

I hear conservatives whimpering about how they could get out of their dirty darned lib states. Nobody seems to blink an eye that they're not living in Handmaid's Tale states to begin with. Well, why not?

It couldn't be because relocating, leaving family, finding a job in an entirely different state and so on can be incredibly difficult and it would take a very large incentive to do it...could it?

Logic.

But now that the hammer has come down that some states can and will be treating women like breeders, it is a larger incentive and if a relocation move is covered by a company, it is easier.

Again. Logic.

Huh? Hundreds of millions? We only have a little over three hundred million people in the entire country. Men, women and children all included.

Are you saying the overwhelming majority of the U.S. is liberal? Now that is an interesting take. Thanks for the intel.

As to how many people will move, I have no idea. We were talking about Google. Is every single company offering what Google is? If so, maybe. If not, it would certainly be harder.

There's that logic thing again.

No, not "in my book," and no to the second part of that second sentence. People would, I would assume, be moving because states that don't value women's rights to choose what to do with their own bodies, might do anything next. Maybe not even just to women, imagine that. Hmmm.

Why did conservatives scream and thrash about wearing a piece of cloth? If you can answer that question I'll bet you can answer your own (dishonest) questions.

She may have been the victim of abuse. Excesses like that can be due to abuse, particularly sexual abuse. Did anyone think to check up on her when she said she had had EIGHT abortions before she was even an adult? Did anyone care?

I have literally never heard of such a thing and I live within driving distance of Hollyweird. If I heard a friend had eight (!!!) abortions before graduating I'd be quietly speaking to a guidance counselor.

Did any of you guys do that?

How many abortions will a woman need to have to justify moving? Do they not know what birth control is besides abortion?

Input was given above, but you do need to read the thread to know what it is.

No, nobody in the U.S. is moving in order to be able to have rolling abortions.

I am guessing you're not a woman (or you're a woman who doesn't know much about her own biology) if you believe there is any woman who casually engages in getting pregnant, feeling sick, and having to arrange for and pay for a painful procedure, then bleed for a couple weeks (per my conservative friend's input when she had hers), then getting right back on that horse to do it all over again, perhaps multiple times a year...instead of buying condoms.

The idea of abortion as birth control is ridiculous and may exist in some corner somewhere, but only as masochism or for someone with endless time and money on her hands, an incredibly understanding boss and no desire to keep her uterus.

For the other probably 99% of women or more, nope. Nobody plans to have sex and just keep getting abortions eternally, instead of just having a guy slip one on. It is from what I understand a process, and not a fun, easy or inexpensive one.

I mean as demonizing mythology it works fine...I guess, as long as you plan on not really thinking it through much. Or at all.
