Abortion is a medical procedure that should ONLY be discussed between the woman & her doctor. I have no right to infringe in her privacy. I wouldnt want anyone to violate MY rights and tell me what to do with MY body. I have no right taking away a person's rights, born or unborn.
BUT, I am AGAINST abortion. I totally DESPISE abortion and if I were a woman Id never have one. BUT I am not a woman and would never know how it is to be one & wont JUDGE the circumstances of her abortion: whether she was raped, whether the pregnancy will endanger her or the baby, psychiatric problems etc. It is NOT my business. It is a sensitive medical issue btwn the patient & doctor, an MD.
Im not pretentious to think that others cant think for theirselves to be morally right. I've belief in other people & the choices they make. Taking away freedom to choose would kill the idealogy of what America stands for. I'm pro choice, since Jesus taught compassionate, love & not to judge.

Pregnant women shuold be offered payment NOT to terminate, and may then decide whether to put the baby up for adoption, or raise it. I am a man who is pro-choice, but would like to see abortion minimised by birth control and kept as an option available in special cases, like contraception failure, rape, genetic disorder, etc.

I'm with you. "pro choice, pro life, every child a wanted child" There are a lot of people who want a child but can not have one for what ever reason. Many would make wonderful parents, maybe even better than a lot of the parents that were able to have their own children. I feel that if you get pregnant and don't want the child you should allow someone else the chance of happiness for both the child and the parents. Murder is not an option. Who are we to take make that decision.

I think that makes perfect sense. The whole Pro-Life/Pro-Choice debate seems to always go to Pro-Life/Pro-Killing (of fetuses) or Pro-Choice/Anti-Choice, where in my view both are right. Like you I am Pro-Choice, but I do not like the idea of ending lives. Shouldn't the choice be there and work on giving people the wisdom of not using that Choice, instead of removing the ability to use a procedure that under the right circumstances can both save a life and remove adverse quality of life issues. That would be the knowing that an unborn child will have defects that will negate his/her quality of life.

Thank you for your intelligence and sensitivity in expressing yourself on this issue. I am female, and I am also pro-choice but against abortion, very much for the reasons that you outline.
