5)I agree with my Pagan Philosopher, Tecoyah : It should be legal, period.
Your US aws should remain as they are. 12 weeks from conception is the longest I would consider abortion as an option for myself, WERE I faced with that gut wrenching decision. Correct: a fetus does not show "thinking" brainwave patterns until the third trimester, prior to which it is a rapidly dividing cluster of cells we know as a zygote.
6)Being a woman I feel it is 100% that woman's body.
She creates, she births, she makes the call.
7)I have never had an abortion to this date, and hopefully won't be faced with this.
Please let me leap onto my soap box just for one second :
With the number of reliable birth control options available today, there is virtually no excuse for getting quote unquote accidentally knocked up.
Zero, actually. It's 100% about [accessible] education and prevention.
Rather than making abortion a regularly discussed issue, what should be at the forefront of the issue is how readily anyone can get birth control.
Any human capable of impregnantion should be provided free condoms via any medical clinic, hospital, school or institution. If they can provide needles to drug addicts, they can provide rubbers to the responsible.
( Before you argue me : I've heard it before. Doing this would increase promiscuity, wah wah wah.... would you rather have more underage pregancies, more abortions, more disease or risk more people screwing ???? )
