I made it in larger print so you could read it this time instead of just projecting your thoughts onto me. Just to be sure, when you say MEN in this post you are talking about Trans Men, right? You know, men trapped in a female body.

Nah, I believe in contraceptives, also added that part in the high school teaching part. I think it's an abhorent practice to use abortion as a means for general birth Control. I do give exeptions for things such as medial, rape or incest. I just think it's a barbaric practice considering the abundance of effective birth control available. And no I do not agree with doing away with Birth Control, thats a hard pass for me.

Where you see the heartbeat as the indicator of human life, many people see brain development as the indicator of human life. Apes have a very similar heart as we do. So do plenty of other lesser beings. What separates us is our brains. Brain development is the key indicator of human life. If we used that as a cutoff criteria we'd still be legally allowed to abort half of CVON.

I'm having a hard time thinking of a more horrific delivery than a baby without kidneys. And I've delivered kids with their intestines on the outside and on more than one occasions a kid without brains.

Or first trimester,. And yet many states have and some are pushing for much longer time periods even up to and including birth. secondly- you are correct, what seperates US is our brains. 2 minutes ago, DEagle7 said: Weird example to use considering the VAST majority of those children are either crushed to death during delivery due to a lack of amniotic fluid and/or suffocate brutally because their lungs never developed properly again because of lack of amniotic fluid.

June 27, 20224 yr 35 minutes ago, Ipiggles said: I am trying to understand, how some people can have so much compassion for a baby outside the womb, and yet completely disconnect any feelings and have ZERO compassion for the baby in the womb? I get that they were conditioned to believe it's not "a baby" until it's born, but doesn't logic kick in at some point, and you realize, thats a real human baby developing in the womb. I can see drawing a distinction at a heartbeat, that seems like a reasonable place. That no heartbeat, means it is just a clump of cells and having a heartbeat means it is no longer JUST a part of the WOMAN host. Which can be as early as 3 weeks after fertilization, which is why it's unnacceptable for those Pro Choice advocates, because thats often too early for them to tell. (which would not be my problem) The heart is just a blood pumping organ. Its notoriety is because its job results in a readily identifiable mechanic we associate with life. The line IMHO is when the brain is formed enough for a fetus to have independent thoughts. Not just reaction to stimulus, but some actual level of consciousness and sense of self.

Also for the Chatman quote about child support - depending on the state prenatal care and birth expenses can be a liability for the father. So - yes?

Thats a fair point and one i'm willing to consider.

Women are paid less because they have other goals (ie: raising kids) and because their careers tend to be sidetracked by having said kids. Yet he also believes that they shouldn't be able to have abortions so they can focus on their careers. he's lurking right now, let's ask him.
