(42,693 posts)but also would like to see become less frequent. This includes both elective procedures and non-elective procedures. Liposuction and breast augmentation should be legal and safe. But I also would like to see our culture change so that body image and the objectivization of women's bodies declined. I would want various treatments for cancer, including radiation and chemotherapy to be legal and made as safe as possible. I also would like to see people take greater care to prevent cancer from occurring or to detect it early enough so that some of the more invasive treatments are not needed as often.
And when it comes to abortion, it is safe and it should be legal. So are other ways of addressing unwanted pregnancies, including steps that can be taken by a couple to minimize unwanted pregnancies. Those steps also should be legal. And, yes, if i had to say which of these options, both of which should be legal, I wanted to be more commonly employed (i.e., less rare), it would be family planning that avoids unwanted pregnancies.
