Are You Pro Life or Pro Choice?
Are you girls Pro Life or Pro Choice?
If so, explain why.
Keep it cute though, and let's try to not have this get too ugly.
I myself am Pro-Choice. I genuinely believe that a woman should have the right to choose to keep her baby. I may not necessarily agree with all cases, but she should always have the right to choose for herself.

Pro choice, because if it was illegal, there would still be some girls going to underground doctors, who would harm them. And you know thered be underground doctors doing illegal abortions for cash. As long as its the first trimester then I believe its the woman's choice, but Im still not too crazy about it.

I'm pro-choice, for several reasons, rape being one of them...and why would you want to bring a child into the world if you aren't financially stable enough to take care of it, or if you don't want to be a mother, etc... whatever your situation is. The child would end up suffering in the long run.

Pro-Life. I know some cases are different than most, like rape, but killing the baby isn't the answer.

Most of the time, I'm pro-life. You have some women out here aborting their baby for stupid reasons.It's not fair to the living thing inside of you. You CHOOSE to keep your legs open, you CHOOSE to have sex without any protection. You should have the baby. If you can't take care the baby there is always adoption.
Rape is a different story but you have women that just want to take easy way out and it pisses me off.

I am Pro-Choice...if you are not an idiot.
There are certain circumstances in which it is dangerous for the child or the mother for a baby to be born. For example a pregnancy that is the result of a rape, a woman who is mentally ill that is pregnant, a child who has an incurable genetic disease or deformity, a child that is the result of incest etc etc. But in all honesty there is no person here that can put themselves in the thoughts of a woman in a difficult situation who is pregnant. Every situation is different.
I personally would not have an abortion if it was an accident with my boyfriend, in my opinion if you feel that you are old and responsible enough to be having sex then you should be prepared to deal with the possibility that it will create a child. I know not everyone thinks like that though.
My issue is with girls getting an abortion a year because they can't keep their legs closed and are too trashy to use a condom or go on BC.

Pro-choice. The government should not get to decide what you do with your body. I apply the same philosophy to drugs, prostitution, etc.

This is not true. Rape victims can become pregnant. It is not uncommon. Those women certainly do not choose to keep their legs open.

It would be delusional to not be pro-choice. We cannot deny that it's a woman's choice.

And it all comes back to when you consider the baby to be "alive".

Both of you summed up exactly how I feel.
I don't think that women should cash in abortions like coupons, though. I completely understand if it was one of the situations listed above. But I know that there are women who have multiple abortions, simply because they're careless when it comes to safe sex. Who are we to judge whether or not somebody should be able to choose to abort their pregnancy? I'm assuming that most people who are for gay marriage are also pro choice.

What if the baby has a deformity? An incurable genetic disease like hutchinsons? Is it fair to let a child be born when you know it is going to have terrible quality of life or worse. Some babys have deformities resulting in organs being on the outside of the body...how is it fair to let that baby be born? To put the Mother through labor only to birth a child that will die outside of the womb.
Every case is different.

Depends. If the woman had unprotected sex just for the hell of it, then she should take responsibily for her actions. But if the case was different then she has every right to do whatever she wants.
I'm not the one carrying the baby

Adoption can be a horrible process, and sometimes ends up with a baby in an orphanage or in foster care.
If I were a woman, I wouldn't want my baby to be subjected to that if I felt I couldn't take care of it

Pro-life. Life is life and life is live, or as the song says, live is life. *gets into 80's ridiculous outfit*

Pro-choice. I have a hard time swallowing someone aborting a baby for no real reason (like, they had unprotected sex and it happened and then they got rid of it), because there IS adoption. But then, women don't want to carry that around if they don't plan on keeping it anyway. People judge you (mostly applies to unmarried women), it makes you sick, etc. So I can't judge them for that.
