You can be personally opposed to abortion and fully support a woman's right to terminate a pregnancy

[calimary]

42. Exactly. NO ONE'S stopping you from NOT having an abortion.

That's what the whole idea of CHOICE is about. Being pro-choice means you can absolutely choose NOT to have an abortion. That's why I call that side of it "anti-choice." The pro-choice movement allows for true choice. You can choose to have one or not to have one. No one's telling you what you can and can't do - in the privacy of your own life, your own body, AND the most intimate and personal parts of that body OF YOURS. The anti-choice movement offers NO choice at all. It only seeks to dictate - and dominate. NO flexibility. NO alternatives. NO relief or solutions to desperate situations and problems. NO options.

If the anti-choice movement was open and generous about supports for women to whom they give NO options, I'd sympathize. But they would dictate that a pregnancy goes, whether or not. A pregnancy goes whether you wanted one or you were raped into one. A pregnancy goes whether you're physically able to sustain it or your life is put in danger by it. More of the "IGMFU," "Sucks to be You" myopic, closed-minded, short-sighted, cold-hearted, and most often downright CRUEL policies of that side.
