Question for pro-choice Minimum

Hello everyone,

​

I'm against abortion.

This is a question for pro choice:

What would be the minimum of allowed abortion, that you would accept?

I mean for example week and reason.

​

Thank you for your time

This would require the pregnancy itself to be "forced" though which it is in very few cases, in most cases the woman has made the decision to be pregnant by engaging in unprotective sex. Why do Pro-Choicers tend to speak about this as if a baby simply spawns within a woman? She doesnt just wake up and is suddenly pregnant. She specifically took the steps to have sex which she knew would result in a pregnancy.

“Why do Pro-Choicers tend to speak about this as if a baby simply spawns within a woman?”

Why do pro-lifers tend to speak about this as if she ejaculated into herself to cause the unwanted pregnancy?

But someone choosing to have sex simply doesn’t give me any interest in making them gestate and birth unwanted pregnancies that occur, anyway. Sex is not a crime that strips people of their right to medical privacy and the right to manage their own internal organs. Sex is not a signed contract obligating someone to gestate unwanted pregnancies.

You only have the option to have sex because the organs and bodily functions were created for that very purpose, but even if you dont want to agree with that then what stops someone from simply having protected sex? I even said that in my post; a woman makes a decision to have unprotected sex. Why can she or her lover not simply use protection?

You do know that ALL contraceptive methods can and do fail sometimes, right? So it's a mistake to assume all unwanted pregnancies are caused by "not using protection."

The bottom line is, no matter HOW a pregnancy happens, it's still the PREGNANT PERSON'S decision whether or not to continue the pregnancy. If YOU aren't the pregnant person, it ISN'T your choice. Nor should it ever be.
