having sex (protected or not) ≠ consent to having a baby

I do not value a fetus in the first trimester

It doesn't matter if it's a life, it matters if it's a potential life, once that potential is created it is, in my mind, immoral to remove it

Robbing a store ≠ consent to going to jail

Well then jerking off is wrong

So when does life start then by your standards?

But going to jail is still a consequence that will occur

False comparison

How so?

Both are an action you are choosing to involve yourself in and, whether you like it or not, that action will have a consequence outside of your control

And no, because jerking off does not produce a baby. Sex produces a baby

The sperm is a potential child

There is no potential for life by jerking off on a tissue, no life will form on that tissue

A woman having her period is a waste of potential

The egg is dropped

Yes, but only if it is combined with an egg, and vice versa. 50% of a zygote is not a zygote, and if left unimpended sperm or egg on its own will not created a life

but it is "potential"

So then what if your absolute intention is to not have a kid??

It's ironic that you accuse me of creating a false comparison and then immediately make a false comparison

Just pleasure

Then go through the proper steps to prevent a pregnancy

Do you eat eggs

"It doesn't matter if it's a life, it matters if it's a potential life"

we eat chicken children

Yes, and sperm is not a potential life. No matter how much somebody jerks off a baby will never begin to form from it

lol

isnt that basically like eating a human child

So, that chicken has potential and you just aborted it

yea

True lmao

Are you trying to talk to me or talk past me, komrade?

wait what i said sounds messed up, sorry

I've explained to you why your analogy is incorrect but you keep repeating it, which is very confusing

I'm saying the idea of potential can send you down so many paths

he's basically saying to just phrase your sentences better

Like, the mom not having the child could lead to her having better potential

But the McGriddle at McDonald's is so good

See, a baby requires two sets of DNA in order to develop, 50% of that DNA will never create a life. 100% of that DNA mixing in a specific environment is what creates a baby

Okay, but, when do you deem it as having potential??

Once the natural processes occurring, if left unimpeded, would result in a baby
