[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you not have daughters? Sisters? Nieces?  What will you say to them when they need a D&C because they had a miscarriage and aren't able to get one and go into septic shock?  What happens when their fallopian tube ruptures due to an ectopic pregnancy and they start bleeding internally?  Does nobody think about the ramifications of their actions until it affects them individually?  Southern states are trying to ban abortions in all instances - rape, incest, health of the mother.  Why would you let your daughters, yourself, your nieces, your sisters, go through such pain?  HOW IS THIS NOT IMPORTANT TO YOU!?! Why is your money more important than your health? [/quote]

A D&C is not abortion. Managing an etopic pregnancy is not abortion.

Abortion isn't healthcare, despite the new spin.[/quote]

Hello low-information non-medical professional making false statements about medical terms. This is just to inform you that just because you don’t like the actual medical category for a procedure does not mean you get to change the name of it.

Abortion means the early termination of a pregnancy before a fetus can live outside the womb - whether spontaneous or medically induced by pill or surgery. Even if that pregnancy was doomed. It is an abortion. This is why miscarriages are labeled abortion in a patient’s file. Ask me how I know.

I am a medical professional. You know exactly what she meant here. Removing a dead fetus is not an elective abortion.
I see women who have had more than 10 elective abortions. I see women who refuse to start prenatal vitamins because "I'm not sure if I'm keeping it. Depends on if the father steps up." This procedure is treated glibly and without the required seriousness. I started my career fully pro-choice but I've seen too much now.[/quote]

I try not to judge, I really do but back in highschool I had a friend who had 7 yes 7 elective abortions. I faded out of her life. I understand where you are coming from pp I get it.[/quote]

How many pregnancies and births have you endured? You think the stork brings you a nice big bouncing healthy baby?  Pregnancy and birth is difficult and bloody and things can go sideways very quickly and they do. Mind your own damn business is very good advice.[/quote]

Your comment makes zero sense. They had a choice of something called "birth control" instead of 8 abortions. [/quote]

If you think birth control is important then do not vote for Donald Trump.  Do you have a brain or is it just like a pile of mush inside your skull?.[/quote]

This.   Republicans have a long documented history of being hostile to birth control as well.

They are NOT "pro life" - they are only pro-pregnancy - and it doesn't matter if it's a bad pregnancy, a fetus with no chance of surviving, a pregnancy that will endanger the mother's life or other things.  Those are certainly not things that advance life.  Those are not "pro life" things.  The only thing that matters to them is the pregnancy.

"Pro life" is a lie.  It's never been about "pro life."

If you are pro-birth control, if you care about saving womens' lives, you cannot in good faith vote Republican.

That's not an opinion, it's a statement of fact, backed by decades of Republican history and Republican policy.[/quote]
Correct. Literally anything that is documented to reduce abortion rates - comprehensive sexual education, birth control options and access, preventative medical care, living wages, paid maternity leave, a strong social safety net - ALL of it is opposed by the Republican Party. They don’t care about life. They care about controlling women and causing us as much misery as possible.

Meanwhile ED drugs are considered beyond reproach. Perhaps the post-menopausal woman would like to live in a world where her husband’s viagra is treated like the GOP treats birth control and abortion. He has to go to a few specific doctors, maybe up to 300 miles away from where he lives. He has to run a gauntlet of protestors who Potted Plant John Roberts says has every right to yell and spit in her husband’s face, you know, under the guise of “counseling.” Then he should have to get an internal ultrasound, just to check and make sure his prostate is okay - stop whining, guys, the wand isn’t that big; you should just relax. He should be counseled on the risks of sex when your body is clearly too old and in too poor of health for an any vigorous activity. Then a 24 hour waiting period. Then he can drive back home where hopefully his pharmacist’s conscience doesn’t agree that the decrepit old husband should be having intercourse that God says he’s too old for.

But it’s not about sex. It’s about the GOP wanting to torture and control women. [/quote]
