if south dakota bans abortions again, i should buy coat hangers in bulk on ebay this summer and unload a truckload of them all over the streets in downtown pierre or sioux falls

the law is no protection
that would be an intersting and original demonstration, lucas. might get a fair amount of press if you did it at the right time in the right place.
I dont support abortion. Not because I give a fuck about "life" or the baby. But more because I think it takes a really fucked up person to kill their own flesh and blood. The least you could do is give it away.

Trent: The problem with adoption is that unless you have a nice, healthy white baby its chances of adoption go way down. Plus there's a surplus of kids waiting to be adopted. Going to just throw another on to the pile and hope someone takes him? I'd rather suck a few cells out of me than put a kid through that ... but I'm a male, so my opinion doesn't really matter.
To quote my mother, "I think only women should be able to vote on abortion legality."

I dont think thats right at all because maybe the wife doesnt want the kid, but perhaps the man does. I understand the woman bears the child, but it still took two to make it and the man should have a choice if he wants to keep it.
trent, don't keep the fembitches down. ;)

Trent: I guess things are different down here in Texas. Though we are still pretty racist, so it's probably no surprise that white babies get adopted easier.
And while I agree that a man should have a say, it's up to the woman, in the end, to keep or terminate the pregnancy.

That hurt more than I would have expected.

Is tumor life then? It is your own flesh and blood. And to just tell someone to give it away isn't that simple (leave it to a man to say something like that). It is not just nine physical months. It is nine months of emotion, psychology, and nine months spiritually. The impact that carrying an unwanted child to term isn't yet fully known. To force someone to do something they don't want to do is unconscionable.

I find nothing funny in all of this, do you?

Once again, it is more than just the physical aspect of it, but you're not looking at the whole picture. Was the pregnancy unexpected? If so, the woman has every right to terminate it. Was the man duplicitous? Both partners have a responsibility when it comes to unprotected sex, but if it's a spur of the moment, I'm deferring to a woman's judgment on this. phi_ is correct in his (mother's) quote. I'm also of the mind that straight people have no business telling me who I can and can't get married too.
Trent, your answers assume too much and are too simply.
not to mention the coat hanger issue. if it's not legal, people are going to find other methods.
Wow man way to take abortion to the level of a tumor. And no one forced them to do shit, if they are going to have sex without proper control then thats their own retarded fault. And yes I find racism funny k thx. If a woman is raped I do however consider the sake of this arguement completely different.
Oh yeah plan C for the win. Or a little fall down the stairs. Good ol' belly flop works to.
no birth control is 100% effective
abstinence only?
yeah right lars, fuckin milky way wrapper and a garbage bag... works everytime

That hurt more than I would have expected.
So, Trent, where does the man factor in all of this, or is he absolved of all paternal responsibility?
The entire point of me argueing was so that the man could have a say in what goes on.

True, I'm a big supporter of men's rights, provided that it was agreed upon that they're having a child. Anything else, and it's not fair to the woman. If the man wanted a child, he should discuss it with the woman. If it was unplanned, then he's shit out of luck. He's not the one that has to carry it to term, that has to suffer through the ups and downs and agonies of pregnancy and birth.
It takes two. Abortion is no small matter, but to brush aside the feelings of a human being because of your own reconsidered mistake, is nothing short of cruel.
