They not only forget this, but I've actually heard Rush Limbaugh say that one of the goals of "feminazis" is to increase the number of abortions performed in the US by as much as possible. Like these women are just yearning to have as many abortions as possible.

Rush seems extraordinarily ill-informed regarding the female body and the female psyche. My, my, but he must be a real dynamo in the sack.

Yes dammit...in fact I wish every woman would get pregnant ON PURPOSE just so she can have an abortion

Do people really think any woman WANTS to have an abortion? The words UNWANTED preganancy pretty much negates that idea

Fucking morons

Yeah, it must be all those pro-abortion demonstrators who picket Babies-R-Us with their "Abort Now" and "No More Crumbsnatchers" signs, and who scream down the innocent shoppers, that cause all of the ugliness over the abortion issue.

A little off the topic but...

To you married ladies who are using birth control may I suggest that you get your husbands to seriously consider vasectomy. I had it done 10 years ago with zero ill effects. I did this because we had two children and didn’t want any more. It was my suggestion. I did not feel I should subject my wife to years of taking birth control pills with the attendant long term side effects.

Ecco -

My husband and I have discussed it and once we decide we don't want any more children - and right now we want to have one of our own and adopt another - he will get snip-snipped!

I don't hate taking birth control pills, but after a while it gets really tedious and I look forward to the day where I don't have to worry about that anymore.

Can an ovovegetarian eat a fertilized egg? A pro-lifer would argue, that he would eat the meat.

I decided to be the one that got "fixed" in our family. I highly recommend surgical sterilization to people who feel like their families are complete. It is an extremely liberating experience. (Hmm, maybe that's why many churches object to this and other forms of birth control.... )
