Anonymous wrote:Fine – people pay, government doesn’t provide them. But there is absolutely the outcry re – OMG if Roe is overturned and abortion goes state by state, it’ll be hard for the rural women in Mississippi and Indiana. To me that IS a convenience argument. If abortion is available in a handful of states, isn’t that enough and better than nothing – why MUST it be equally available in all 50 states so that it’s convenient for all?

Just because your capacity for empathy is broken doesn’t mean everyone’s is. We are not all so hateful and ignorant as you.

Why is it ignorant and hateful? Aren't there financial solutions there to get an abortion if you need it? What the gov't has to provide the abortion AND make it as convenient as possible for you?

Wow, you really just doubled down on your ignorance there. Congratulations.

But answer the question -- if abortions are available somewhere, why is it also required that it must be as easy as possible for you to get one? Why is it tragic if you have to inconvenience yourself to get one?

You fundamentally misunderstand the legal, political, financial and medical landscape here. Go educate yourself and then come back to talk to the grown-ups, until then you’re not worth wasting time on.

The fact that not one of you can answer one simple question – why must abortion be made convenient – suggests to me there is no answer beyond the usual liberal – FAIRNESS garbage.

Are you going to say that when you need a root canal that is only available 3 states away? What's the big deal? Why does your health care have to be convenient?

You know how one can prevent that? Not letting a guy put it in when you're in high school. I'm not for abstinence only and I do think there are medical/criminal reasons for abortion, but let's be honest if any particular high school girl is soooo worried for her future bc she fears a condom will break and she wouldn't be able to get an abortion -- would it be the end of the world to not start sleeping with people until after high school??

It’s been a while but I seem to remember that high school boys might play a role here too...

Really? If they're putting it in without consent -- as I say above there's criminal reasons for an abortion then. But if a girl is letting them put it in knowing a pregnancy could result if no protection is used and/or if protection fails, the boy is burdened how exactly? Is he carrying the pregnancy and breastfeeding the kid? And I say this as a parent of daughters -- we all know girls carry the burden here, no matter how charming/convincing a boy may be.

Yes, let’s continue to absolve them of any responsibility. Good idea.

It's not about absolving them, it's biology. If there was some way a boy could get pregnant and suffer -- great. Yet there isn't. So I think all girls need to know that if you get pregnant, it is 100% going to be your problem. Sure the law may mandate child support or whatever but don't be so sure you'll actually get anything out of the guy - so make sure the sex is worth it. If abortion goes away/gets harder to find -- then girls need to maybe think twice of having any sex until they absolutely could financially provide for a kid; for most people that isn't high school.

DP.
Yeah, you’re broken. Abortion is part of women’s healthcare, like it or not. It’s not reasonable to expect women to have to travel across the country, after arranging childcare, for healthcare. Women who need abortions in certain parts of the country already have to do this, and it is absurd and un-American. It is inherently misogynistic.

x100000000000000

Why must everything be provided to you AND be convenient? How about it (in this case abortion) is provided BUT you inconvenience yourself to avail yourself of one? What exactly is so absurd there?
