And labeled it after getting, you could continue being a whore or slut!!! And then after that, admitted to me, she got one after getting pregnant in the 11th grade!!!
Talk about Hippocrate!!!
I'm all for woman's rights!!! Let them have one, if it's needed!!! But damn, calling all women whores and sluts for having one, after you did??? What the fuck are you???
I hate FB a lot of the times!!!

(37,364 posts)is to project your own self image on to others. Each and every one of us has something down deep inside that takes us to that space. I often wonder how many of the women who deny others reproductive choice have been forced by circumstance into not making the choice for themselves. Condemning her when perhaps a little hearing out what her fears and feelings were at the time she was forced to deal with a pregnancy as a teenager might better serve. I'll bet she has never been offered that opportunity.
Hypocrisy is too easy to ascribe at times.

(14,552 posts)someone did that with me, I made it very public that Planned Parenthood was getting a nice donation because of her attitude. It shut her up and no one else dared to approach the subject with me again.

(45,601 posts)is pretty much the GOP platform. "If I do it, then it's justified, when you do it you're a dirty sinful heathen!" is used by team GOP for everything including adultery, drugs, death, and accepting tax-funded assistance.
There is a personality type that needs to tear down others in order to feel better about their own guilt and insecurities. God forgives you but only if you brutally punish and judge all those "other" sinners on God's behalf. For example, I had a hippie "vegetarian" girlfriend who would gleefully chow down on a juicy beef steak right in front of me because "it's that time of the month and women need the protein and enzymes" but not let me have a bite because meat is the flesh of living beings and she doesn't want me to have bad karma. I hate those kinds of people so much.
