See, what bothers me here is that the right will fight like hell to see that the baby is brought to term, but once it's out? Fuck you, i got mine, you care for your kid. Either you care for human life or you don't, which is why i'm more inclined to believe that the right's stance is more about oppressing women than it is about caring for any sort of sanctity of life. |
I don’t think that is a fair characterization ...
I would say that (in general) most people who are pro-life want to prevent unwanted pregnancies rather than terminate them. In general, they would argue that (if you're unable to support a child) you should abstain from sex or at least have protected sex with responsible people; and if you end up pregnant you should favour adoption.
I generally find the left's positions far more bizzarre, they will argue that having sex doesn't mean that you're consenting to have a child unless you're a man; either sex does not obligate you to be a parent and we should create legal paternal surrender laws, or it is an obligation and women should not be able to abort their children. On top of this, since wide spread birth control, abortion, and several forms of surrendering your children exist to prevent women from having to support children they can't afford we're (as society) still to pay for these women to raise these children even though they consciously decided to have them knowing they couldn't afford them; and since their financial hardship is caused by a conscience choice then welfare should be denied to single mothers.
