Since when was killing ones own kids an act of empowerment?
I think abortion should be met with the same legal punishment as murder.
99.999999% of abortions are unnecessary and on the extremely, extremely rare occasion where abortion is an emergency procedure to preserve the life of the mother, well that's between her, her husband and the OBGYN. Everyone else can STFU as they couldn't possible imagine what it would be like to be in that kind of terrifying, tragic situation.
Pro-Choice Vs Pro-Life is: Kill your kids or let them live. That's it.

You know, the problem as always is that you are denying women their bodily autonomy. I have to agree with the saying that if men would get pregnant too, abortion would be legalized in seconds. The father has done nearly nothing to conceive the child, once he impregnated the mother he is free to do whatever he wants if society wouldn’t put regulations against that behavior (and how well those work is yet another question that is rarely asked). For a woman pregnancy is extremely costly, might have disastrous consequences for them in many different ways.
All abortions are just between the pregnant woman, the man who got her pregnant and the doctor. It does not involve you do get the fuck out. You clearly don't care about them.
Take your own advice and STFU.
“ that's between her, her husband and the OBGYN. Everyone else can STFU as they couldn't possible imagine what it would be like to be in that kind of terrifying, tragic situation.”
That’s a perfect summary of the whole abortion question, although I’d replace “husband” with “father,” as many single women have abortions as well. I have yet to see one of the protesters outside clinics offer to adopt the unborn child if carried to term, or even support the mother during pregnancy. As George Carlin said, “If you’re pre-born, you’re golden; if you’re pre-school, you’re fucked.”

Not that I understand why they think non-virginal women should be punished in the first place. Especially with the usual claim that men should “sow wild oats”, despite that meaning that women...well...have sex with the men in question. Why, basically, should women be punished for helping men do what’s expected of men?
Admittedly, this is assuming that the very existence of the desire to punish is reactive, not proactive or free-floating. Still doesn’t explain where the desire to harm, or at least inconvenience, came from at first, though.

I think this is more about women having sex without being in a marriage (and there only with her husband). They can’t conceive of a woman in a marriage NOT wanting all the kids her husband has planned for them to get, so if the child is unwanted, then it must be coming from “illegitimate” sex. Remember, in the mind of fundamentalists and fascists, female sexuality outside of procreation is abhorrent. So they see the child as the punishment these women allegedly deserve for having sex with whomever they wanted.
You who are supposedly 'Pro-Life'. So many being fundie Christains. Presumably you're one of them, Pathetic Design? So you'd agree that all forms of abortion are wrong: as are those who promote, nay, order such to happen? No Exceptions: otherwise it's not only your entire 'argument' that's utterly annihilated: certainly the legal right of your entire 'agenda' to be politically Executed .

Your move, OP.
