...is that faced with a girlfriend or female lover faced with an unwanted pregnancy, those boys will become uber-fans of legal abortions.

It showed a student delegation to one of the annual so-called pro-life demonstrations in D.C. About a dozen boys from the all-male school stood behind a large banner decrying abortion as criminal. I am haunted by the perfect smiles on their affluent faces.

All boys. Not a womb among them. All doing God’s work by seeking to protect the government’s power to make women suffer and, if it be the case, die.

I never liked my Catholic (how’d you guess) high school. Smugly oppressive, witlessly religious, preaching morality while turning away from the sodomy and pederasty practiced regularly by so many of its priests and teaching clergy.

That’s my rant for the dat.

Republicans are in favor of killing living babies and have done so.

Pro-life to conservatives/republicans is a myth.

The supposed pro-lifers cared naught when the state of Texas (republican gov, republican Prez) deliberately killed living baby Sun Hudson against the mother's wishes because he was an inconvenience to the state.

It is not a matter of life to the supposed pro-lifers.

It is a matter of control.

about abortion, I tell him he doesn't get to have one. Period. He's pro-choice, but started spouting some right wing bullshit about 8 month abortions. I told him 1) it's not a thing, and 2) you don't get to have an option about anyone's pregnancy. He didn't argue.

My husband has made remarks in the past that the father should have a veto over an abortion if he wants the child.

I told him that he could have the child if he was willing to be pregnant and go through labor and childbirth.

End of conversation.

So many people (men in particular) view pregnancy as just gaining a few pounds, or having to put up with a bad haircut or something, not the potentially life-threatening, body-wrecking, hormone-laden ordeal that it is. Sure, it's exciting when you want to be pregnant, but even then, those things are true. No one should have to be put through it against her will.

When men can get pregnant and carry a child through birth, let 'em have at it. I'm going to skip it in my next life.
