In reply to the discussion: Women Have The Right To An Abortion. Deal With it [View all]calimary
(89,951 posts)56. Welcome to DU, andrew_house. This has been a thorn in my paw for a long time.
OUR bodies. OUR choice!
NOT some politician - usually a male politician at that.
NOT some priest, minister, ayatollah, or mullah - also male.
NOT some government body that then chooses to cut the services, programs, and supports for women, many of them single moms trying to juggle poor-paying jobs and more than one kid - alone.
If, indeed, they REALLY believe in small government, then the answer is NOT to make sure they can still fit all that government into a woman's vagina.
If, indeed, they REALLY believe in getting the government out of your life, that has to include getting the government out of your bedroom (and out of a woman's vagina!).
