i don't feel that abortion should be used as birth control either, but i hate all of the "well...in that situation...." shit.
what about when a woman who is responsibily using birth control gets pregnant? what happens if the child is mentally retarted and the mom doesn't feel she can mentally or physically deal with that kind of burden? because i know i sure as hell wouldn't want to.
personally, i feel that something that can't support itself without being a parasite to my body shouldn't have more rights than me.
Quoted from Science Brad: I'm for abortion up until the point there is a brain developed enough to support an actual conciousness and hence be a person.
not that i disagree with you, but at what point, exactly, does this happen?
edit: also, i would like to point out that i'm fairly certain that if men were the ones who had to worry about getting pregnant, carrying a pregnancy for 9 months, missing work, breastfeeding, gaining weight, morning sickness, afterbirth, haivng your body irreparably change, losing 3-5% of your brain, having the entire chemical composition of your body change, worrying about your husband/significant other leave you to raise the kid by yourself, being unable to loose the 100 lbs you gain while pregnant, having swollen ankles and a sore back, having tender breasts, uncontrollable mood swings, being exhausted, actually giving birth, huge needles shoved in your spine, diahhrea, and all of the other dozens of horrible of things that happen when you're pregnant, there would be no fucking question as to whether abortions should be legal or not.
