    AGAIN, I never said I wanted to control what women do with their bodies....you are making it obvious by "misrepresenting" what I say that you are desperate and don't really have an answer or an argument.





    If you quit "misrepresenting" what others post it wouldn't be circular at all.


    I don't see what's so hard to understand about women having a right to their own bodies (just like everyone else has).


    What don't you understand?

    Good for you

    Now what are you going to do to ensure that the other 7 billion people on this planet do the same thing?

    If you do not have a concrete plan of action all you are actually doing is stating a perceived superiority

    China is using forced abortion.

    I heard in Bali they were handing out free motor scooters to men who got vasectomies.

    Bangladesh is trying to bring sterilization into its overcrowded Rohingya refugee camps.

    The sterilizations are tied to how much food they get.

    Run over someone on the freeway and you will soon learn who is held legally accountable. Same with pregnancy - if, as you claim, it is all a woman's responsiblity then why are men held accountable under the law?

    There do exist other options besides abortion. (if you're talking about the planet as a collective)

    Have them keep their legs together until they have birth control and insist men also use a condom, my parents were not overly wealthy, and struggled at times and they used contraceptive foam and he wore a condom. It worked they only had two kids and were a robust loving married couple. If you can't afford a baby use precautions or don't splay your legs if a woman or ram your penis into the woman if a man.

    Pray tell, just how difficult is it for one to refrain from engaging in sexual encounters if one is not actually ready and prepared to face the consequences that may occur from such actions? It is known full well by everyone of legal age that such encounters carry the possibility of pregnancy occurring as a result. It is a biological equivalent of the game best known as russian roulette.

    """"""just how difficult is it for one to refrain from engaging in sexual encounters if one is not actually ready and prepared to face the consequences""""


    Must be quite difficult for normal humans since they've been doing it since the first humans appeared on earth...I don't think human nature will change because someone thinks it "should".

    NO, there is no other option if a woman has an unwanted pregnancy and does not want to be pregnant.

    Then perhaps the woman in question should have refrained from undertaking the one single activity capable of producing a pregnancy, if she was not willing to deal with the resulting consequences if they came into being.

    ,



    Why should she ? Humans are free to have sex...did you want to pass laws against having sex? It won't work :) :)



    If she has an abortion she IS dealing with the consequences...

    Is the woman in the hypothetical discussion an unintelligent animal that is incapable of exercising intelligent thought, critical thinking skills, or understand how sexual encounters may very well lead to pregnancy as a result? Is she a slave to physical and biological urges and instincts that render actual thought an impossibility?

    Humans have the internet, medical books, and countless other data that animals do not possess. They are devoid of an excuse for not understanding that one directly leads to another.

    Humans are free to engage in a great many activities that yield negative consequences if they so choose. Most are simply smart enough to refrain from actually doing such.

    Why did she not refrain from engaging in behavior that would create the problem in the first place?

    Women are just human, like everyone else.

    You can deny human nature and the entire history of the world if you choose but that does NOT make it disappear.




    Women aren't as stupid as you imply....the FACT is they do NOT have to give up sex to please you :)


    No, most humans are not perfect...in fact NONE are...

    Show me a time in history when humans refrained fom having sex.....Dates please :)

    AGAIN, because she does NOT HAVE TO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Such is the problem with the human species. For all of its technological developments and society, it is nothing more than yet another dumb species in the animal kingdom, made up of individuals with no self control, who believe they must act upon an impulse the moment they become aware of it, all the while believing they should not have to deal with the negative consequences of such behavior. If it is not sexual encounters, it is violence and murder committed over hurt feelings.

    If Roe v Wade is overturned, perhaps she may have to.

    So women DO have full decision making powers over their own bodies? Are you sticking with that?

    I did not say a pregnancy (child) is a woman's responsibility entirely. I said it's her responsibility to say no, if she can't raise a child. VERY different proposition.

    First, no one here has ever said women should give up sex. All we say is: don't do thinks which make babies, at times when you're unable to care for a baby. That is TEMPORARY. If it's not temporary .. and you spend your entire life unable to care for a child, you're beyond the scope of this conversation, and possibly in jail or an institution.

    Second, you actually think we want women to try this approach to please us, and not to ... I dunno ... save a few babies from being aborted? Time for another 'wow'.

    It's not MY business to tell the rest of womankind what to do with their bodies. I'm not sure why you guys keep insisting that that is done? It seems you really do want to control women.

    My 'concrete' action plan is to take responsibility for myself and my daughters. It's the most concrete plan there is. If we all try a little harder to make wise choices, then we're all self-determining our way out of poor outcomes.
