All of Those ‘Hysterical’ Women Were Right

Ahh, you are a man. 

That's pretty harsh, and an attack on women in general.  I find it hard to believe others will not find this as offensive as I do.  You are saying that all women are incapable of making good decisions.  Shame on you.

So is that a yes or no?  By logic, someone who would not have ever found themselves in the tough position of deciding whether to terminate a pregnancy would not be a woman, unless you fall in the camp, as the Texas legislature does, of determining that decision does not belong with the woman affected.

By logic, any woman who has never found themselves in a position to desire an abortion is able to make good choices and prevent the need for an abortion.  Not a single one of my friends have ever been in that position, so I know it's not just me.  Your premise that only a man can make a good decision could only come from the mind/mouth/keyboard of a misogynist.

Have you ever been in the position to decide on whether you need to choose or for a termination?

Yes.

 

As a young and fun loving guy I never thought of abortion as evil or even a difficult decision.  Just something to be done when necessary.

 

When my ex-wife and I were both in professional school and only married for 8 months, she became pregnant.  Timing was really terrible.  Dental school is difficult to get through anyway, but doing it while pregnant (she was a dental student) was going to be really bad.  Parents thought she would probably drop out of school.  Talked about the possibility of aborting.  Thankfully my ex said there was NO WAY she would consider an abortion.  To her credit, she stayed in school and never missed more than a week when she delivered.  Graduated on time.

 

Now I can't even believe I ever considered aborting.  I've got a great daughter that I have wonderful relationship with.  She has been very successful and I'm so proud of her.  What a shame it could have been...

I never suggested anything of the sort, only that your views are consistent with someone who has never faced the choice, or fear of facing that choice. Accusing me of misogyny is rich though.

I am glad your wife made that choice and it worked out so well.

Administrative action has been applied against an account because of belittling, baiting, and stereotyping.  This inflammatory topic warrants extra care to keep discussions civil.

Is the law a complete ban on abortions?

The law bars abortions once cardiac activity can be detected in the embryo. This typically occurs around the sixth week of pregnancy.

That is very early in a pregnancy, and many women do not know they are pregnant at that point. By the time a pregnant woman misses her period, she is four weeks pregnant, as doctors usually define it.

Under the Texas law, then, a woman would have about two weeks to recognize her condition, confirm the pregnancy with a test, make a decision about how to manage the pregnancy and obtain an abortion.

So is there going to be a new debate as to when a baby is a baby?  Regardless, this topic has morphed into just another pro-abortion/anti-abortion discussion which was not what SCOTUS ruled on at all.  As many folks have opined, once an actual case gets to SCOTUS, the outcome will most likely be different.  Regardless, it is interesting how the Left wants the courts to be activists for their pet causes, and in the meantime, we have a President that could not care less for anyone other than himself, and his family.

Very good news for those of us concerned about access to a very safe procedure that American women have a constitutionally protected right to enforce.

Quote

 

The Justice Department is lodging a constitutional challenge to Texas’s 6-week abortion ban, which deputizes private citizens to sue anyone they suspect of performing an abortion and has halted nearly all abortions in the state.

DOJ filed the lawsuit in federal district court in Austin on Thursday afternoon, just over a week after the law, SB 8, took effect. Attorney General Merrick Garland announced the suit shortly after it was filed, saying that the federal government had the “authority and responsibility” to ensure states cannot deprive citizens of their constitutional rights, particularly through a “legislative scheme” designed to avoid any review by the courts.

This is a private medical decision for a woman. Women should be empowered to make the decision that is right for them. I'm glad that there are stories where people chose not to terminate in difficult circumstances and it turned out well. That's what pro-choice is all about -- that women can choose what is right for themselves and their families.

It can be debated whether or not abortion should be legal but where in the constitution does it say abortion is a right?

Abortion is constitutionally protected under the 14th Amendment.

I am kinda of pro life but that's my opinion and don't want to impose my beliefs on others.  I think its a wedge issue politically used to divert attention away from how bad both sides hose us. I do draw a line at aborting a viable fetus.

 

However asking neighbors to snitch on neighbors should scare all of us
