Abortions

["Melyssa K" Kennedy]

You can believe I made that shit up about what my friend said, I don't care. I'm chatting with her on facebook right now and she thinks you are ridiculous to think I would make something like that up. I don't have to prove it to you that she exists, haha. And you have provided just as many facts as I have and in the same manner. You make me laugh.
Suzy, the friend I am talking to, said she would leave this discussion on this quote, which is what I am going to do. "Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people"

I read a story about a woman who was with the same man for years, was on birth control the entire time, and has had 7 abortions. Whore too lazy to take bc? I think what I take issue with are "whore" and "lazy". Having regular sex does not make a person a whore, and being a "whore" (if by whore, one means slut) is not a bad thing. Furthermore, I have never, ever heard of a woman who has easy access to bc and just chooses not to take it because she's too lazy and would prefer to just wait til she gets pregnant and go through an abortion. Seriously. No such accounts exist.

Clearly you people are too lazy to read my entire post and only want to nitpick at a single part to try to make me look stupid. Why you would do that is beyond me and I am beyond giving a shit why you choose to do so. I'm not ignorant on how abortions are performed and how hard on the body they are and you can't speak for all women. And this is a thread about opinions. Last time I checked, you don't have to back up an opinion with 100% hard cold facts for every single thing you say. Not all women would have a hard time with it. What about coked up crack whores? You really think they give a shit? And I never said that it would be easy for every woman. Did you even bother to read my comment about the how difficult the life of child put up for adoption would be? If all you want to do is demonize what I say based on one single sentence and apply that to how I view the entire topic, well, that is on you and you are pathetic to do so. It's not all about the woman who would or would not choose to have an abortion. What about the poor children whose mother did not choose to have an abortion and decided to give birth to them in the worst possible situation and they grew up in the shittiest of conditions, sick and hungry and shoved around from foster home to foster home. Did you even stop to think about them? No, you didn't. You just wanted to say I am absurd for saying that a fraction of women would use abortion as a form of birth control because they are too stupid and irresponsible to know the difference. If I am completely wrong about that, it doesn't mean I am wrong about the rest of my statement. But you choose to disregard that. Who's the absurd one now?

It would certainly help if your post wasn't 13 lines long.

I firmly believe that a womans body is hers and she can do exactly as she pleases.. The woman has the final call believe the woman has the right to choose.

Agree with what you said here.

I think what we've learned from this thread is that Melyssa FUCKING HATES being argued with, people even implying she might be wrong, and being asked for sources. Y'all remember when I asked her for sources to back her opinion on bras and breatfeeding and she took it as a personal attack for like 8 pages?

Anyway, I'm sure there are statistical outliers of women who get multiple abortions because they are irresponsible, but that's like mentioning people who fuck cars when talking about human sexuality. I'm going to try to remember to look for some info about this when I get home from work.

This may be a controversial opinion, but if people choose to get multiple abortions, so be it. It's stupid, dangerous, and irresponsible, but so are a lot of things I don't care about. If we've already agreed that a fetus isn't a living being and can be aborted, what does it matter if it's one or ten?

Before I forget, Mel no one mentioned the rest of your original post because there was nothing to discuss, nothing more to be said, why is that so hard for you to understand?

edit: One last thing, I don't believe a single person called you or anyone else an idiot, except you know, yourself.

"Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people"

This quote is to Melyssa as "When in Rome" is to Ron Burgundy.

I would just like to take a moment to thank all the lazy, non-birth-control-using, whores for helping keep down the costs of running a sushi restaurant.

Sometimes men are the ones to suffer too ...

[AllIn All It's Not So Bad]

No such accounts exist.

That's a pretty far fetched claim to make.

Now, I am not defending Melysa's -err how do i say it- argument style, because I know she's an idiot. But I will say that there are women who are not lazy to take birth control. It is not a matter of laziness. But there are very irresponsible and insensitive women who know that taking birth control helps in preventing pregnancy(I am also aware it isn't 100%) and don't willingly take it. And then they get pregnant and those are the kind of people Melysa is referring to. But I will defend your point and say that those women make a very small amount of the population. Probably a fraction of the population.

Now really, how come being a whore/slut is not bad?

And on the topic of abortion, I think they are wonderful. Please refer to this thread.

Now someone has called Melyssa an idiot.
