Never heard that before, I like it.

Well put!

strong and wise words my friend

I feel sad that my mother thinks of it as "taking away a life" I'm always on my aunt's side. (My aunt is a feminist, A Real One) I got my first period when I was 10, so I have proof that girls can be able to have a baby at a very early age. If an 11 year old girl gets pregnant from an incident with a pedophile SHE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO GO THRU THE PAIN OF GIVING BIRTH! I tried to explain that to my mom and all she had to say about it was "she'd be more traumatized by killing someone, she's just gonna have to deal with it" don't get me wrong, I love my mom but she really pissed me off by saying that.

ah yes. i like this one

Nailed it!

Awesome response.

I’ll recuse myself until someone asks my opinion.

Ive heard this far too many times, true as it is

okay, everybody has an opinion, dont be a jerk and slam other people on theirs

Isabella R.W. It's not just the pain of child birth, but your body gets WRECKED even just during pregnancy. It strains your organs. Your metabolism changes, your hormones change, and even the way your body processes sugar. And not just while pregnant but also after. And that stuff changes (for better or worse) each time you are pregnant too. I personally dislike abortions because you are ending a life, but I would never want to force someone to suffer though a pregnancy "to give it up for adoption" because it does have the potential to do a lot of harm to the woman's body.

And if men were advised to have a 'ballogram' every year, that would most certainly be a quite different procedure!

@M O'Connell If you aren't sure what all is involved during a mammogram, please look it up on google. Then would you please reread your comment slowly? I hope you realize just how insensitive your words are that you thought you were so clever.

Men.... It would be a "God" given right to them.

@Monika, men are advised to do a testicular self-exam monthly. Luckily for us, there isn't as much tissue involved and abnormalities are pretty easy to detect without an ultrasound.

Yeah, except I probably won’t have a uterus pretty soon, but I still get an opinion on a procedure that I have had and want available for my daughter and other women.

Maybe we should add if you've ever had a uterus, since I (thank god) no longer have one. But I did once and feel that I get an opinion on this.

Rebekah - yep. Always been my standpoint.

Until there's a draft for anyone, sit yourself down and be quiet.

That's fine, you can be for or against it when it concerns your womb. As soon as it isn't about your womb, you have nothing to say in the matter.

Of course they are, like a lot of men are against war. That was not the point though.

Yes, but the point is that women who want to get one cannot because of crappy laws.

So they shouldn't have one then, let the rest of us make our own choices.

Yes, that is true. The point is its the right of those woman to have that choice decided by themselves amongst themselves

So?

yes! thank you.

So they shouldn't have one then, let the rest of us make our own choices.

A lot of women are sheep.

I am not a woman, but I'm against abortion. :>

Well then: scenario time. A woman will die in childbirth but the baby will be born. If she gets an abortion then she will live but no baby. The man says: "NO! Abortion bad Unga-Bunga me no sheep" The woman will just have to die then?

Kevin, most women are not like that. You're clearly a rational man. What bothers a lot of women is that we have to have men fight for a right that really doesn't affect them. The women that voted for trump should be ashamed of themselves. They're worse than the men. At least he doesn't assault his male supporters. Men aren't the problem. Republican men are the problem.

"I told women to vote for Hillary..." Eww. I'm a (cis)man too. On this subject we speak when spoken to. Period. (and on the matter of periods, also)

*intense buzzer* incorrect. The egg is needed, but soon the sperm will be made redundant. So please shut up.

Seriously? You knuckledragging misogynist. Sit down? What century did you just roll out of? You get a uterus and maybe, just maybe, you can have an opinion. Until then, YOU sit down and keep your yap shut. If you can't push an object the size of a watermelon out of an orifice in your body, you get no say. Go back to your pickup with your buddy Bubba and practice chugging beer. What a cretin.

Men aren’t the ones who get pregnant. Men aren’t the ones who face health complications due to pregnancy. And, statistically, men aren’t the ones to raise the kid. Women fight and die in war, same as men. However, men are not often involved in abortions.

First, you missed the point completely. Second, I don't feel the need to listen to anyone who hides their name and their face.
