(11,204 posts)The woman, her doctor and her chosen advisers (and maybe the father - IF he is planning to raise said child; if not, he can join the fuck off line too) are the only ones with legitimate stakes in these decisions.
You who has ZERO business in the decision? Some smarmy asshole religious nutbag prattling on about the sanctity of life and blah, blah, blah...if they want these babies so badly, why are they not adopting them by the baker's dozen EACH? Its because they don't care about anything more than controlling the woman and her body and her right to choose how that body is utilized.
The woman gets to choose IF she wishes to have sex...not some asshat preacher, EVER!
The woman gets to choose IF she wishes to be pregnant for 40-42 weeks (or so)...at risk to her health and body.
The woman gets to choose IF she wishes to be a parent for the rest of her life...with all the responsibility and financial and emotional obligations that comes with it.
The woman gets to choose IF she wishes to explore adoption options and carry a child to term...again risking her body in the process and possibly her life if things went south.
The woman gets to choose IF she wishes to risk her very life for an at risk pregnancy...
For anyone having a hard time understanding this, I am willing to come visit you, surgically implant a watermelon seed in your abdomen, then culture that thing until it reaches about 7-8 pounds over 9 months time (making sure to dose you with drugs and hormones that will alter your mood, change your diet, give you cramps and destroy your sleep patterns), I will then induce an artificial "labor" for you by giving you Pitocin and other medications that will cause you to experience whole body cramps and for good measure we will find a way to end this all for you by making sure you pass a few kidney stones...then I will smugly tell you it was my god's will and you have no role in the decision...
