I’m not actually pro-choice because the baby doesn’t have rights to the mothers body— I’m pro-choice because historically pro-life is a way to tie women down to their male counterpart and exploit helpless children for profits

The ability to choose if and when you want to have kids is quite literally freedom for women. That’s why they want to take abortion and birth control away

Is the ability to choose if and when to have sex not the same thing? Or do people have a right to have sex without repercussions

Yes they should have the right to sex without repercussions. That’s like saying every time you have sex you should get herpes

No bc sex has a repercussion: kids. Herpes isn’t a possibility for every sex

Yes actually people should have the right to have sex without “repercussions.” You’re acting like sex is a shameful thing that should be punished and not a completely normal thing for two consenting adults

Plus, no kid deserves to have parents who see them as their “repercussion” the way you seem to imply you would

I don’t think it’s shameful, but that’s like saying I should have the right to gamble without losing money. Some actions have consequences. And, unfortunately, some parents do view their kids as mistakes

Hey so gambling and having sex are not comparable like at all. And just because some parents do see their kids as mistakes that doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t try to stop that from happening by offering people options that modern medicine has afforded us

No no no you don’t HAVE to lose money to gamble, if you’re good. And also, it’s always this same argument, I think a mistake of a child is better than getting rid of that child

i said spend, not lose. The mistake of a child disrupts the parents life and makes her dependent on the man, this therefore gives him a monopoly over the reproductive rights of the woman. It’s basically slave ownership at that point. The woman, financially, becomes a slave to the man and so does the child because she can’t work and all the child exists for is to work.

Bruh I brought up the gambling point and originally said lose; you don’t get to change that. Once again, I don’t think your mistake justifies the killing of the baby. In most cases, the woman consented to this “enslavement”, so therefore, by definition, it is not slavery

oh okay then sure, lose. If you spend money you’re still losing it. It’s not about the baby, why is the baby more of a concern than the woman? What if you just did non-lethal abortions? It’s so crazy that you think women WANT to be enslaved given that from birth their taught their purpose is to please their husband.

They are actually of equal concern to me. My biggest concern is the preservation of human life, whether that be the mom or kid. What’s a non-lethal abortion? That sounds like an oxymoron. I’m not saying they actively want it, just that they consented to it when they decided to have sex. Kinda like a terms and conditions
