Otherwise, following your logic, men should be able to opt out of child support as that's nothing but 'control over men' and no one likes to be controlled
(But, oh, I'm pretty sure you'll slyly avoid responding to this point, too.)
It's sad enough when the overwhelming majority of abortions are done because the women "Isn't ready to be a parent" (Why are you having sex when you can't deal with the consequences?). Yeah... That one makes perfect sense to me. It's even sadder when half of the women who have an abortion typically have another one. That just goes to show that they really don't care enough to practice safe sex.
You made it, you take care of it. Men have to abide by this standard. So too should women. You can't do that? Then keep your legs closed. Yes, it's possible.

The way it is treated today by law, in effect, a fetus is no more than a growth inside a woman’s body. Even if you're fucking someone that doesn't give you the right to tell them what zits they can or can't pop. What I’m trying to point out is that your argument is just another rehashing of when does life begin debate. Your argument makes sense if you think of the fetus as being alive, it doesn't if you think of it as a functionally unnecessary part of a female. All she's doing is having elective surgery in that case. Sorry if I’m not in the correct flow of the debate, it really is hard to read so many posts.
Anyway, my thoughts on abortions. I am opposed to them in principle. However, if I had a vote I would not vote to ban abortion. I understand that there is a difference in the way in which I think and someone who is pro-choice thinks. There are logical arguments which make a solid case for being allowed to have abortions. Because I do not agree with their fundamental assumptions I do not believe in them, but unfortunately I have yet to hear any convincing argument which can tell me the right assumptions to make. Therefore, I must allow for the benefit of the doubt. That is to say I could be wrong, and I’m not going to impose my will on someone when I'm not sure of something to a satisfactory degree.
