You are saying that they are not qualified to make decisions about their own bodies. That is patronizing, controlling and demeaning.Gandhi>Bush said:I haven't demeaned women in any way.
Yes, I am sure this comes as a surprise to you, as we only rarely see PL ever having given the woman a thought.
Not as long as she herself are allowed the choice. But when you seek to restrict her access to abortion, then she becomes just that.Just because a woman is pregnant does not mean she is a baby factory.
Correct. Bit then nobody ever made that claim.Just because a woman isn't pregnant doesn't mean she had an abortion or intends to or is even pro-choice.
Then isn't it good that such an absolutist case was not made to begin with?I think it's really silly to make such an abosolute case about an entire gender of people. It's like saying a man is celibate or he is gigolo. As if there is no middle ground.
Correct.A woman is always a woman regardless of her pregnancy status
Except if the prolifers make her one through their policies.and she is never a baby farm regardless of her pregnancy status.
That is not the same as comitting your bodily resource unless she agrees to the use.She did. She's pregnant, remember?
There is tissue that eventually COULD BECOME a child. The way you present it is just more revisionist linguistics.There is a developing child inside her that she and her partner are responsible for creating.
Nope. It never is a baby. Rather, people may feel of characterice it that wat, but that doesn't mean reality.This getting ridiculous. It's a baby if I want it to be, it's a tumor if I don't
Nope, your claim is false. They are both persons.It's a person if I hit my brake, it's a speedbump if I don't.
Emotional claptrap distortion.It's someone's life if I want it to be, it's my own bodily waste if I don't.
Nah, it's going to be the next Stalin someday.It's going to be a doctor someday, it's going to be in a plastic baggy someday.
It is a stranger, or it is a dying kidney patient. YOU get to chose that, certainly. YOU get to chose whether you want to donate your kidney or not. So drop that dishonest holier-than-thou silliness. Selfrighteous moralists just shows themselves to be hypocrites.No one is afforded that much choice in this world. Not women not men. What is, is what is, not what you choose for it to be.
