i would have to say i'm pro choice but within boundaries. i think there are extenuating circumstances where it's completely allowable. however, i believe that women who use abortion as a form of birth control should be charged with negligence. i also think that men(they can have opinion but i don't think they should weigh in heavily on it as they don't know what a woman goes through) and religion should stay out of it. this is just my honest opinion so don't bite my head off please, i respect your opinion as well. thanks =)

I am pro choice. I believe that every women has the right to what happens to their own body. If that right is taken away what man should approve an abortion or even the right to carry the pregnancy to term. What about in a case of rape, should the rapist decide what happens to the pregnancy? He was just the sperm donor.
Most men cannot make "rational" decision when asked so give them a life or death answer... Sorry, I wouldn't, and didn't.
I also believe that every women has the right to say what they want, if they are pro choice or even pro life. That is the American way.

I am so tired of all of the male cant say this, or the male has no opinion in this...screw all you low life women who think that way. Now I personally love children and I have a 2 year old of my own, and he means the world to me. At the time, me and his mother were negociating abortion, and yes she took my advice and pondered upon it. Why? because I helped make it, and i have a right in my childs life.
Personally I feel that society and church are fighting over a thing that should be entirely left up to the female, only because she is the carrier. Pro-choice is the best alternative for an un-wanted pregnancy in my eyes. All this talk about killing a kid, or murder is really ignorant to my understanding of the developing zygoma, then later on its a fetus. Yes, a baby is being born, it will be a human one day, but women, you have about 3 weeks before that zygoma starts a heart beat and is called a fetus, so if you are going to have an abortion, why not do it then? There are other methods involved in abortion besides a suction device anyway, its called the abortion pill, and it was designed to eliminate some of the pain from the aboortion provedure as well as aborting the zygoma before it reaches the fetal stage.
Church attenders, I am sure that we can all agree with your mental way of thinking of murder, but how do you feel aabout child neglect? How do you feel about abusive parents? How do you feel about another soul that has to live in poverty?
Tax payers, how do yall feel about paying more money for another child that was born to poor parents, now the state has to take care of this baby? How do yall feel about a father that is a true dead beat, not paying child support and not in his childs life?
This is why I am for pro-choice. The church, and even society has nothing to say about it mother who is expecting. You have to think of the outcome of this decision. Is it the right decision to have a baby? Are you financially stable? Is the father going to be there? Are you going to be able to provide for this baby? Take these things into consideration. Regardless if the father is there or isn't, you can still do it mothers, you can still raise a healthy, respectful and beautiful child. But if you are just a kid without a clue of how in the frick you are going to provide for this mouth, then maybe you need to face your mistake, and not make another.
Sorry if I offended anyone with my opening remarks, but thsi is not just a world based upon women, men...we have a right to voice our opinions as well.

This is not just a women's issue. This is an issue about life and death. I am pro-life. I do believe women should have the choice of abortion if it is probably that the mother would die in childbirth. As for rape, which constitutes <1% of all abortion, they should go through with the pregnancy. 2 wrongs dont make a right. However, i feel the govt should financially aid these women and offer them problems to cope with their situation because I believe this is serious stuff. Most abortions are used for birth control, which is sad because it shows our general lack of respect for human life.

i am pro choice, but yes i agree with you in many aspects, as in men should not have any say in this because they are obviously not women and do not have a uterus so they should not have any say in it. but i do also belive that women who are just like, oh well lets go have unprotected sex, if i get pregnant i'll just have an abortion are wrong. its morally and ethically wrong. i do belive however that abortions should be available to teens without parental consent in situations, but they have to give the doctor a pretty good one. also i do not think that some teens are responsible enough, but i would rather them grow up and try to do something with their life then dropping out because their parents disown them and having no way to change their life at that time. it can be very hard for some teens and i think that the parental consent law is dumb. if a teenager can make the desicion to have sex and do drugs then they should be able to make other life threatening desicions such as undergoing a very dangerous surgery. but thats just my point of veiw.

I say pro-choice. Women go through a lot in their lives and it is only fair they get to choose what to do with their unborn child. It is irresponsible of them to go about the world popping out babies like a lot of women do and then letting them starve to death, others have no choice but to have them because of their cultural and religious beliefs. But it's also irresponsible to kill just because they are too young to have them or it wasn't planned. I'm pro-choice in cases such a malformed baby, rape, and risk of death to mother but everyone should be conscious of what they are doing and why.

I am pro-life because I am a Christian but i believe that in certain cases like rape or the mother is at risk of dying then an abortion is necessary.

Personally, I think a young girl in school or college that gets pregnant should be able to make their own decision. I was young once and know things can happen. But I also know a girl having a baby can be bad for her own future and the care of the baby.
Let's hope she can deal with her decision when she gets older.

I say pro choice with boundaries too, but there will never be a resolution to this issue.
