Why are so many women anti-choice?

[AtlantaAdonis]

There should be a massive Lysistrata-style sex strike in Texas about now, but we won't get it. What's wrong with about half of women?

 

[TypicalRussian]

lol so own the conservatives by stop being sexually promiscious

 

[danielpalos]

...they don't really believe in equality?

 

[CaughtInThe]

I'm just glad all conservative politicians and conservative men always wear condoms.

What's "wrong" with them is, I suspect, they have a different definition than you on what constitutes human life.

Brainwashing is common, especially in the Churchy states.

Lol...as if Right Wingers give a **** about human life. See COVID in red states for proof of that.

After all, these are people who cheered Ron Paul when he said we should let the uninsured die.

The idea that you can legislate when life begins is the very definition of hubris.

An odd way to describe Roe v Wade, but okay.

I actually think that is the root of the discussion.

If you think life begins at conception, chances are you are pro life.

If you think life does not begin at conception, chances are you are not pro life.

Literally posted on that thought in another thread just seconds ago ...

Texas Abortion Law is Ultimate Cancel Culture

Anyone committed to judicial activism -- and that is far more common on the left than the right -- is politicizing the courts. I'm sorry if the truth bothers you, but it is what it is. Rather than metaphorically beat my head against the wall, I'm moving on. Have fun with your irrational hatred.

Pro birth, not pro life.

Especially when they are anti-mask and anti-vax.

Right-wing women probably just need a full body massage with Happy ending to be Happier.

Because abortion isn’t just about women?

If you think life does not begin at conception, chances are you are not pro life.

That’s an outdated argument. Most of the more intelligent pro-choices agree that human life begins at conception (because, ya know, elementary biology). The question is when that life gains value.

As a "minor" the fetus is still under the authority of the parent.

As a "minor" the fetus is still under the authority of the parent.

And, therefore, can be legally killed if the parent so chooses?

And that’s fine, as long as they don’t try to force others to abide by their values when they disagree on the morality of abortion.

 

[danielpalos]

Most likely if the fetus cannot survive without that parent's "life support".

 

[Josie]

Therefore, a human can be legally killed by his/her parent ... right?

Maybe because they have seen and bonded with a child well before birth. Total speculation on my part. I remember seeing my kids before they were born, technology must be much better now. Couldn't imagine chosing to kill them.

 

[danielpalos]

Yes, given certain conditions. A parent can terminate "life support".

As can a spouse;

I guess bodily autonomy is a foreign concept to certain women…

Like child support is to certain fathers?
