I'm pro-life. "She should be able to choose what she does with her body" Well, if she chose to have sex, then, she chose it all right! In extreme cases (rape, fatal risk to mother, ect.) then I think it's up to the lady's disgression of what she wants to do. But if she's sleeping around with guys, she gets pregnant, then I don't think it should be common place.

 

so you've never had sex outside of marriage? you've never dated someone and slept with them but didnt want a kid? what if that was you that had an accident one night? then what? would you serioulsy have it? honestly?

 

the problem w/abortion is that if you take it away for one reason, you have to take it away for all.

 

I'm 16, so, I'm still a virgin.

 

Pro-life, because this discourages teens from having casual sex. Pro-choice would basically encourage more teens to have sex, resulting in more STDS and teenage pregnancies. Besides sex should be resereved for marriage anywho. You shouldn't be having sex unless you are financially and mentally capable of supporting a kid.

 

Wow. The choices have it, almost 3-1 right now. I guess I'm old fashioned in alot of ways. I've only had intercourse with one person in my life, and I really loved her at the time. I would never sleep with anyone just to get laid..... just doesn't seem right. I feel if you are going to have sex, you should really care about each other. Don't have to be married, but at least care enough to think about things before you get into trouble. Unfortunately, when a hottie is shaking it on the dance floor and some dude joins her, their motors are already in second gear before they even say "hi". So they aren't thinking with their brains. But to me, it's stupid. Humans are a little above the dog intellectually (I think).

 

Definitely a no on using it as means of birth control, there are plenty of other methods that don't involve killing a fetus.

For other cases (rape, incest, danger to the mother, etc.) I would have to say it's up to the woman.

I'm not a woman, so I will definitely never know the feeling of making that decision. I have heard that an abortion can be very emotionally damaging, but again, I really don't know.

You always hear about conservative groups who are against teaching birth control to young people because it encourages them to have sex. They are even against teaching alternatives to sex (masturbation). They want push abstinence as the only method of birth control. While I believe abstinence is indeed the best way to go, it's not reasonable to expect that young people are not going to have sex. That's just not going to happen.

While my views lean towards the conservative side, I would rather they use birth control instead of getting pregnant and either having an abortion or having a child when they're still kids themselves.

 

Heheheh, like the lady in the Clinton admin that brought this up to congress? Hehehehe.

 

i was gonna comment, but this one ill keep to myself.

 

I'd have to be on the pro- life side. I mean what if my parents decided they werent ready for a child and they aborted me if I can use that context I wouldnt even be here or have a chance at life. In my opinion we are not god. Yes we can create life but I beleive that we dont have the right to decide who gets the chance at life and who doesnt
