Official Abortion Thread

Here's a good resource that lists state abortion funds that you can donate to help women in those states get abortions.

I get it, some people don't want abortion because they don't want to kill a fetus.

That is just absolutely sad to force a female to keep the baby because of incest and rape. No exceptions sounds very socialist. I sure hope these people know what to do when their girls become pregnant by scumbags.

I am encouraged to see several stories in my news feed today talking about making men also liable for unplanned pregnancies. Be careful what you unleash; it will come back around on you!

See, I think this is wishful thinking...anti-abortion is designed to remove power from women. I've seen multiple threads that devolve into women "should keep their legs closed" or state/imply that we're promiscuous and immoral, among other misogynistic statements. This is the first step to removing power from women-- not helping women in meaningful ways or holding men accountable.

I've only seen pro-choice women call out men on pregnancy responsibility. I think Roe vs. Wade is our opportunity to draw the line, because once it's gone, these states can enact any number laws that restrict women's movements, freedoms, and privacy.

And our daughters need to understand that NOTHING is worth it to allow sex with some sweet talking boy who is here today and gone tomorrow. Girls need to get much smarter than that.

Oh brother. Let’s definitely keep this culture of women as the keepers who aren’t permitted to enjoy and have healthy sexual relationships and men as the predators.

Socialist? Do you know what that word means?
Also, “their girls”? Most people who get pregnant are women and they don’t belong to anyone.

How, exactly, do you think men should be “held responsible” for abortions? I mean legally & practically (not morally)? In the states I’ve heard about, the pregnant woman isn’t being legally punished— the doctor performing the abortion is.
I know people love the idea of punishing men, but the biological fact is that men & women are different. Men can’t get pregnant, period.
I don’t agree with all of these abortion restrictions, but some people seem to be thinking outside reality with their desire for not only fairness but also retribution against males. I’m female, FWIW.

Stiff penalty for irresponsible ejaculation. Jail time and sterilization.

Cute. Maybe you missed the part about practical and legal. What constitutes irresponsible? Sterilization? Really?

Fascist and authoritarian, not socialist.

Charge the father half of all the costs incurred by the woman being forced to carry the pregnancy to term -- from conception through college graduation. No exceptions, funds automatically deducted from his wages.

Pete Buttigieg with the only acceptable answer RE: “late term abortions:”

Buttigieg: I think the dialogue has gotten so caught up on where you draw the line that we’ve gotten away from the fundamental question of who gets to draw the line and I trust women to draw the line when it’s their own health.

Chris Wallace: So just to be clear, you’re saying you would be okay with a woman, well into the third trimester deciding to abort her pregnancy.

Buttigieg: Look, these hypotheticals are usually set up in order to provoke a strong emotional --

Wallace: It’s not hypothetical, there are 6,000 women a year who get abortions in the third trimester.

Buttigieg: That’s right, representing less than 1 percent of cases. So let’s put ourselves in the shoes of a woman in that situation. If it’s that late in your pregnancy, then almost by definition, you’ve been expecting to carry it to term. We’re talking about women who have perhaps chosen a name. Women who have purchased a crib, families that then get the most devastating medical news of their lifetime, something about the health or the life of the mother or viability of the pregnancy that forces them to make an impossible, unthinkable choice. And the bottom line is as horrible as that choice is, that woman, that family may seek spiritual guidance, they may seek medical guidance, but that decision is not going to be made any better, medically or morally, because the government is dictating how that decision should be made."

Mass sterilization is the only way to go in America. With so many options to prevent conception many people are still making bad choices. Once babies become scarce they will no longer be viewed as unwanted, clump of cells, something to electively discard at your leisure.

because men are equally responsible for the unintended pregnancy as a biological matter. not sure why this is hard to understand? they can be held accountable through a policy of mandatory vasectomy, which can be reversed when they have a signed consent from their partner to attempt pregnancy. if women's bodies are going to be policed, men's bodies should be too.

cute. maybe you missed the part where women are practically, and soon legally, being denied an abortion?
