DIY Abortions

I'm not quite sure where I stand with regards to abortion.
I'm still trying to figure out why the thought or mention
of it forces chills down my spine, a lump into my throat and
painful tears into my eyes.

My father has often stated
that once a woman decides to
have an abortion, she will
do anything and everything to
get rid of the child prior to birth.
He therefore advocated
for legal and safe abortions to
be made available.


Initially, I didn't quite understand his argument.
Today, however, I agree with him. I was pushed
over the cliff by the situation in South Dakota
that has prompted women to start considering
Do-It-Yourself Abortions!


The potential dangers of this are obvious. A man can easily
identify with the horrors of self-circumcision which pale
in comparison to self-executed abortions.


One thing is certain: Women need to be protected whatever they
decide.

Why on earth with a guy self-circumcize!(shuddering)

I cannot agree more with your father, Safe and legal abortions should be considered even in this country.

Very active ladies who want no responsibities should seriously look at have a tubal ligation . I am sure a lot of men will support me on this one.

As much as Iknow this is one really "contentious" issue. I agree that a position should be reached at regarding abortion but on the risk of being an outsider i advocate for safe abortion only where the issues are involuntary or in pregnancies due to rape and that class of offences. I believe that given lee way on abortion the license is bound to be abused. lets provide it in a controlled environment to reduce levels of abuse. If you really dont want a child dont get pregnant in the first place there are methods to control this!

Deeply Perturbed: I agree with you but I don't think it's reasonable to tell people: " If you really dont want a child dont get pregnant in the first place there are methods to control this!"


Telling people to do the right thing before it's too late never works (no matter what anyone says). Then there are those moments of spontaneous sexual combustion, laziness to use protection, adverse reaction to pills/injections etc.


It simply isn't reasonable to ignore the fact that we will do "stupid" things and then decide to get rid of the problem. Even if you tell a woman who's already decided to abort that she doesn't qualify, she will find her own ways of doing it.. including DIY.

To be honest i will be the first to say that i disagree 100% if you become sexually active you know the consequences... personally use protection and if that doesnt help and the condom breaks think of adoption there are people in this world that cant have children and really would like one... if you have the nerve to have an abortion your crazy think of what that child could be and how you would feel never knowing.... not to mention the amount of people that would be disappointed in you...

if you have sex know the outcome
