+1, as 15:14 elucidated so clearly.

I don't think the OP is pushing for rape and incest victims to have to carry their attackers baby. I think she is just trying to figure out why this dichotomy exists.

Don't want to fail out of college? Go to class, study, turn in the work. You may still fail, but at least you did everything you could not to.
Don't want to have your possessions to be stolen? Lock your doors and windows, and get a security system. You may still be robbed, but you took reasonable precautions against it.
Don't want to have a baby? Use protection. You may still get pregnant, but at least you took reasonable measures against it.
So exactly what 13:50 said, it's about punishing women for having sex.
Yeah thanks for confirming so beautifully that you dipshits don't actually care about the innocent babies at all.

Really op? I love children and all, but the woman caring the child is not just a vessel it's an actual living, breathing human with feelings you know. Op have you ever been raped by a stranger or through incest and you were pregnant? I'm guessing no, so don't dictate how people in traumatizing life events should or should not act. Get the hell out of your bubble world and go experience life. You are just too close-minded and sheltered.

I don't get how it would work - because it is not designed to work. It is another obstacle to abortion.

I understand what you mean OP. It is really annoying that some people seek to make this distinction. I totally get that a rape victim shouldn't be forced to carry a baby, but no one should.

I have never understood this position- why is a baby conceived out of rape/incest any less worthy of life than a baby conceived via consensual sex? To me, it's even more obnoxious than the "no abortions EVER" people because it basically reveals that you don't give an actual shit about the baby, you just want to hold the mother "responsible" for her choices and face the consequences.
Gross.
