pro-life. if you're raped, don't murder the poor child, just give him/her up for adoption and let them live a happy life w/ a family who's always wanted a baby and could never have one!

So you think its better to take away a home from a kid thats already born than have an abortion?

Ashrita, what does it matter what the victim does during the rape? You've already decided that the base point is that ALL rape victims are trash for being rape victims, so there's no point in fighting back because it often only results in larger injuries or even death to them, and you're going to label them as sluts, whores and stupid trash anyway. It's not like they can "redeem" themselves through fighting back, they'll still be raped in the end, so what's the point?  

You really need to learn about reality kiddo. I understand that you're from a sheltered middle eastern culture that shits on women's rights and marries off girls at 15 (like you've been) to 20 and 30 year olds so you basically never see reality outside your household, but still. You obviously have the internet, educate yourself.


actually i was born in Texas with an abusive American mother. i was engaged to a boy (by force) but then when my mother got really out of hand and offered me marriage to get out i decided to take the offer. i got emancipated and married and then pregnant. and i lived in Pakistani for a long time as a child with my alcoholic father. you think i dont know how it is? in Pakistan some people put women in a shed when they are having their period because they think its nasty so until they are finished the menses they cant come back to the house. remember i said some not all.and by the way most women in our countries get married in their 20's

if it was a child that was raped then yes go for the abortion but otherwise you knew what you were doing so you should keep the child.

Why? If you know what you're doing, that makes the fetus more of a person than that of a rapist?

Who are you to decide that a rape is more traumatic than a pregnancy? Just because sex was consensual doesn't mean that a pregnancy is welcome or healthy for the mother's health, both mentally and physically.

But in a case of only one can survive, which one gets to live? The mother, who will be dearly missed by family, friends and co-workers, or the fetus, who no one has ever met and who has no concept of what "life" and "death" really is.

I mean, the choice seems really simple to me. Why are people fighting to hard to take that option away?

i am pro-choice who we u to decide whats best for other people  to do with their bodies. i just had an abortion and for me it was the hardest decision i have ever made especially considering i already have a child HOWEVER it was MY decision and i am so thankful that i still have that right to make the decisions regarding my body!!! and for everybody fighting that y0ou knew what u were doing fight. accidents happen they happen everyday and i know that i didnt intend to get pregnant when i got my abortion so unless u know someone is trying, then has an abortion dont judge. u can never judge a situation until u are in it yourself. just think... i used to be pro-life... then i found my self in the position to make a decision!

What about those who don't believe in God? What's your reason for denying them the choice?

no thats your decision to have an abortion or not. you know when where why and how that fetus will be killed. it would be totally the opposite if it was gods decision. you would not know anything
