Reply #21: Honey, abortion is self defense [View All]

Pregnancy and childbirth are not benign conditions, although they are normal conditions. Any fetus that intrudes into an unwilling woman's body is threatening her health, her financial stability, her social support system, and her LIFE. All of these threats may be voluntarily assumed by women who want children. However, the word is "VOLUNTARY."

Reproductive slavery is not voluntary.

Men feel perfectly empowered to kill anybody who intrudes into their living room and threatens their stereo. Surely women should be allowed the right to self defense against something that intrudes into their BODIES and threatens their health and lives.

In any case, it's just another thing that conservatives and some otherwise liberal MEN just don't get, and never will.
