| trashleg said: How medieval an ideology that a woman should be forced to carry to term - and give birth to - a child she conceived through rape. Force being the operative word here. After being forced into sexual intercourse, she's then forced into motherhood. If she can't prevent the first scenario, she should at least have some say in the second one. I personally wouldn't want an eternal reminder of such a horrible event, and doubt I could ever look at my child and NOT see their origin story. |
There is one bit of being offended by this you didn't mention. How about forcing all that, AND DOING NOTHING to help out either. In short, the woman gets less humane treatment than someone in prison. At least people who got drafted, and heck slaves, got food and shelter and basic medical coverage. The GOP doesn't believe in any of that apparently. They just want to make it illegal and have the chips fall where they may. In short, as I said, a back-alley birthing.
