Why does a women think she has power over a fetus and or to end life just for a birth control method.
I can answer this question. Usually its a last resort because proper precautions were not available or ignored in the beginning. If contraceptives, the good ones, were readily available, like the pill or the ring or the patch. If contraceptives were not so expensive. If we had an actual sex education in our school system instead of abstinence only. If these type of problems were fixed, I would probably be not support choice as avidly, because I don't support the 35 year old business woman who doesn't want to be inconvienenced and forgot to take her pill. But even then, there are exceptions to every rule.
There are two options for those who want to end abortion:
You can close your ears up with your fingers and just yell, "its wrong its wrong its wrong," and hope you get politicians who have that same mentality in power . . .
or
We, prolifers and prochoicers can unite to try and eliminate the circumstances in which one might choose abortion. And I hope that we can do that. I really do. Otherwise its just one of those circle arguments where we go round and round.
Even if we can't agree about the subject, we all have the power to change the outcome.

That's the best arguement I've heard on this topic so far. You just scored 20 cool points in my book. | | | |

I had an episiotomy during my son's birth and mine is exactly the same. I've never heard that used as an excuse for an abortion. There would have to be more to the story.
