(39,961 posts)are worried about "he said/she said" topics when we have actual examples of women that are being marginalized, oppressed, and will be forced to take their lives in their own hands to seek illegal abortions.
Why should a woman be forced to travel out of state, risk her life or go through extreme machinations to end a pregnancy when the woman herself knows full and well she isn't equipped to raise a child?
I'd wager that 90% of such people think nothing of spaying and neutering their pets because they don't want extra pets to feed and care for, but somehow, a woman's life is worth less than having a dog that is aggressive because he isn't neutered.
I know that's a harsh analogy, but think about it. You would spay and neuter your animals, but you would force a woman that isn't equipped to deal with a pregnancy and the subsequent child care necessities to carry the child.
That reduces women to lower than a litter of dogs you can't feed.
