That’s a good point, but I think we should shoot for 100%.
I sincerely hope that no daughter in your extended family is ever the victim of childhood sexual abuse. Then you will be spared the pain of watching her grow up feeling alone and afraid, with little self-confidence and agency, and a diminished ability to make wise decisions about relationships. She won’t get pregnant at 16, watch the father move on to the next girl, and have another baby at 18, because babies are the only people she can trust to love her.
You’re absolutely right, this 16 y.o. child should accept the consequences of her slutty behavior, drop out of school, and try to find a job that will pay an unqualified, inexperienced teenager enough for living expenses and childcare. If not there’s always AFDC!
If you don’t think a scenario like this accounts for more than 1% of the women who walk into a clinic, you’re not paying attention.
I am interested in solving the problem of unwanted pregnancies. You and other conservatives aren’t.
Removing Roe v Wade would not stop unwanted pregnancies… which lead to abortion. That is your only solution. It’s asinine and doesn’t achieve your goals.
I am trying to go after the real culprit of unwanted pregnancies, men. We need to be controlled far more than women. My stance comes from the fact that Men can impregnate 100s or 1000s of woman in the same time span that it takes 1 woman to progress through a full term pregnancy.
Men are more dangerous. I am a male, with 2 kids. I have skin in the game. I am suggesting that I am controlled (although I already have a vasectomy, so I did my part).
Instead of throwing out insults… you should be throwing out solutions to end abortion. But you conservatives never do.
