I'm not saying that fetuses aren't alive. But it's also silly to think of them as fully alive, too. They don't have emotions, they don't have aspirations, they don't have real conscious thought. That puts them in the same category as a sea cucumber in terms of life. And I have few qualms with killing sea cucumbers to help society, should that need arise. But I also won't ignore the potential fetuses have to become people, which we should not kill. So there's a lot to weigh, and I think it's not as simple as "if it kills the mother then that's the only time we shouldn't"

I dislike it when people paint the abortion issue as something obvious or easy to answer. It isn't, anyone who says so is fooling themselves.

But ultimately my opinion on this subject is regrettably not super important, because I am a man, and I think women should be making the decision on this one.

Nah women are property

Jk

Loo

oh shid is dat tru

wow I feel dumb

It's not that I even oppose abortion, I generally support it for practical reasons as I stated before. I just didn't think the analogy was relevant to abortion generally, but rather to a small subset of cases. I don't support abortion after the fetus has an ability to feel pain or has brain function, I forget when this generally develops. I think men have every right to have an opinion on the issue as they are also a part of society and effected. You could say they are effected less, but people have legitimate views on all sorts of issues that effect them less than others. Certainly it's fine to oppose abortion if you think it's murder, although one should be able to make an argument for that claim.

@wahx

It was never an analogy. It was a thought exercise to provoke consideration of cost/benefit analysis. I wasn't saying you should arrive at the same conclusion, which is what an analogy implies, just that we should think about hedonistic calculus.

Men can share their thoughts, I mean that they should not have the final say because of the disparity in impact

@wahx Well lets see.

That baby is not robbing or trying to kill you.

And it is still a LIVING HUMAN.

Can you compare a living unborn baby to a criminal?

No.

Thats plain stupid.

Oh.

Your a liberal.

Not suprising.

😂 oh man that grammar. Damn you owned me!! So embarrassed

@wahx The poor should not have a say on the tax rate of the rich. Only felons or those in the industry should have a say in the justice system. Only immigrants should vote for immigration policy. Only those subject to the draft should vote for foreign policy. I could go on. I don't know what is meant by "final say" but I think men have a right to vote for politicians (men or women) that will create the kind of society they want to live in.

Early fetuses are essentially like plants
