The odd thing I've found is that while there may be many who are pro-choice, hardly any of those same people would actually have an abortion themselves. For numerous reasons including the one you've given.
Yea, beacause it's not a desire to kill a baby. It's a serious problem for anyone faced with the option. But they just want to have the option. I think most women who have unwanted pregnancies, give birth anyway.

what I am getting at was discussed in the 2004 prez debates. I was struck how similar Bush and Kerry were in terms of the issue of abortion. kerry was more prochoice than Bush but Kerry was against abortion after a certain trimester. I thought to myself watching the debates that this wasnt really a difference between the two on the issue. They both were basically antiabortion.
It seems to me the antithesis of prochoice to be against abortion in the third trimester. Your for abortion or against it as I said previously.
To be prochoice but to be against it during the third trimester seems silly and I dont know why people would call themselves for a womens right to choose if this is what they felt.
A woman should have a right to choose what to do. If this means getting an abortion in the third trimester, then that should be alright.
its not that black and white, there is a big grey area
a fetus can survive after 22 weeks, so its harder to make that choice.
I absolutely know what it's like being pregnant! I was a pregnancy once. Excuse me, but I know pregnancy inside and out! With a concentration on the inside.
really? care to share.
hear my name
take a good look
this could be the day
hold my hand

I say let it pop out first, then stab it while its hobbling around. Let the little bugger get its first glimse of light so it didn't come all that way for nothing. :rolleyes:
I thought this was going to be a serious debate on third trimester abortions. :(

my point being that i'm tired of these abortion threads threads. it's not like women wake up one day and think they'll terminate their pregnancy. it's no one's business and it doesn't make you a bad person or any different than the day before if you choose not to continue with a pregnancy. it's a private issue.

it will be a private issue as long as it's legal - if not, then you'll have women on the front page of newspapers talking about back-alley abortions and babies in trash cans...

true, the decision is private, but the debates/laws unfortunately are not.
pro choice is what will keep women safe.
third trimester abortions, should not be an option

I'll be the guy who teaches people fancy birth control methods like pulling out
for the least they could possibly do
the grey area is do you extend into the last trimester
Well... It's a very dark, damp experience.

You definitely want to pull out before that happens.
