No.. Actually right know I do not follow any religion, but even if it was a local priest that did told me that? Was there a problem? For me live starts at that point. Because since that point, if there nothing is done, a baby will born. I do not care if the embryo does not think etc...
And although i am against abortion, that does not mean i think people shoudn't abort, its there decision.
What i do think is that both parents should make the decision together and not just the women. Normally it takes two poeple to make them, therefore it should take 2 people to make a decision.

And even if that IS the case, LET HER CHANGE HER DAMN MIND!
Her changing her mind constitutes murder of the baby, as it violates the implicit transfer of property rights of the inside of the womb from woman to baby during conception Please tell me this isn't a serious argument. So she violated property rights of some cells? Please explain. The premise is the concept of justifiability. In order for justice to have meaning, justice needs to be universal, otherwise it is simply arbitrary judgements(aka state laws, which are due to that an irrelevant concept for arguments about morality like abortions). And propertarian justice is the only possible system of justice. Hence, the violation of the property rights of the fetus constitutes an unjustifiable action.
You are ridiculous and have never known real injustice in your entire life. The 'property rights of the fetus' I can't even mock this it's so fucking stupid.

I thought you outright opposed it because a fetus is equal to a human life? So murder is fine when a man says it's ok as well? I mean the burden of pregnancy clearly effects the male as much as the female right?

It's not conscious and is literally biologically dependant on the mother's body, not some wishy washy "WELL guys they're dependant before they can feed themselves anywayz" but literal biological dependence. It is wholly a part of the women's body.

Me thinks he might feel that if abortion is legal that both parties involved in the creation of said fetus should be involved in the demise of said fetus. And in his ideal world abortion would still be against the laws of the land, but we live in the real world so he has to work with what law there are. And no pregnancy clearly effects the female, but birthing a child clearly has an irreversible effect on the father and the mother forever altering both their futures.

You know birth control doesn't prevent all pregnancies right? You have sex education in your schools etc? There are numerous birth control methods with high rates of success (>99%), as well as emergency contraception. In today's modern world, you don't get pregnant unless you want to, or are incredibly stupid. Which one is you?
The rest of your post is full of pig headed arguments blaming the woman for getting herself pregnant, that little slut. You don't get pregnant by accident. Your actions have consequences, get used to it. Nine months of pregnancy and nursing ain't a big price to pay after you are being a retard and fail to apply proper birth control methods and don't live with the opportunity of emergency contraception.
If only she had more sense than to fall in love with a man who would leave her as soon as she became pregnant, heh stupid women. There is this thing called child support specifically invented to combat these cases, live with it. Unless of course the kid is not his. Otherwise kudos for being so incredibly stupid for trying to have kids with the inappropriate person at the inappropriate time.
Aborting the child is 'creepy' but raising the unwanted child is great As I said in the goddamn first sentence of my post, put up the child for adoption if don't want to bother with it. There are lot of options, some with no questions asked.
And let me repeat myself, being incredibly stupid, having unprotected sex, not using proper birth control, not using emergency contraception, nine months of "inconvenience" - neither of these contribute positively to your "right" to terminate fetuses.

If there was no scientific evidence there would be absolutely no argument in favor of abortion. Which would mean abortion would be illegal everywhere.
I am very lazy in my argueing, making assumptions all around (Such as this one), therefor I will just suggest you go and look up why there's a certain point in a pregnancy where "shit gets real" (Because I couldn't tell you myself, I simply do not know and don't care enough to educate myself with all the boring details)

Hence the claim that abortion is enforcement of womens property rights is incorrect, as a women herself demonstrated the preference of the baby having a right to living in her body, by the action of unprotected sex. This is crucial, because it is the CORE of the anti-life argument, and yet it is completely fallacious. No form of birth control is 100% effective, you need to stop talking.
Nobody has ever said that people have a property right in their own body. That isn't stated anywhere in the constitution and no Supreme Court decision has ever come close to ruling to that effect (Not in Roe v. Wade, and fyi you don't even have property rights to your own genes or other body parts, see Moore v. Regents of Uni of California, which expressly rejected the concept of property rights to body).
I don't even know where you're trying to go with your argument.

You don't get pregnant by accident. Your actions have consequences, get used to it. Nine months of pregnancy and nursing ain't a big price to pay after you are being a retard and fail to apply proper birth control methods and don't live with the opportunity of emergency contraception.
Agreed, as I said that little fucking slut deserves what she has coming, haha 9 months of pregnancy cry me a river, am I right? If that stupid fucking woman gets herself pregnant then BIG DEAL, who cares it's not a big price to pay as you said. God I hate these fucking retarded women, if only they had the insight of a privileged and insulated first world male.

The language he used was clearly misogynistic and placed the blame of pregnancy on the woman. Maybe he looked like an intelligent and rational debater to American standards, but over here he looks fucking reprehensible. Sorry if this hurts your precious little feelings, expendable male #21415986

If men got pregnant instead of women, this discussion wouldn't happen. I am completely sure of that.

@Frigo - "you dont get pregnant by accident"?
Yes you do? I dont know what to say, lots of people get pregnant by accident, you cant deny that. Even if you take every precaution you can it still has a chance of happening. Dont deny facts.

CORRECT. If both parties could get pregnant, and could decide which one got pregnant then it would be 50/50.

There are numerous birth control methods with high rates of success (>99%), as well as emergency contraception. In today's modern world, you don't get pregnant unless you want to, or are incredibly stupid. Which one is you? Emergency contraception is biochemically-induced abortion. You fail, so very very hard.

Nine months of pregnancy and nursing ain't a big price to pay after you are being a retard and fail to apply proper birth control methods and don't live with the opportunity of emergency contraception. Neither is $400. Shut up.
There is this thing called child support specifically invented to combat these cases, live with it. Unless of course the kid is not his. Otherwise kudos for being so incredibly stupid for trying to have kids with the inappropriate person at the inappropriate time. Your point is irrelevant because fathers cannot force their fetus' momma to get an abortion.
As I said in the goddamn first sentence of my post, put up the child for adoption if don't want to bother with it. There are lot of options, some with no questions asked. The biggest adoption demands are for caucasian babies. Do you think the majority of abortions are given to white women? You can't just 'give the child up for adoption'. What if nobody wants it? it is preferable to burden the state to raise a kid, or preferable for the state to fund a clothes hanger.
I mean just take a step back and look at the inherent hypocrisy of your argument. On one hand, you say woman should live with their decision and accept responsibility (what about the dad? takes two to make a baby, but the mother is usually the one carrying the burden in these types of cases), and then on the other hand you say "just give it up for adoption" (thereby passing responsibility to someone else). Which is it? Pick a stance and be consistent.
And let me repeat myself, being incredibly stupid, having unprotected sex, not using proper birth control, not using emergency contraception, nine months of "inconvenience" - neither of these contribute positively to your "right" to terminate fetuses. None of that matters. If a woman decides she doesn't want a kid, finds out she is pregnant, go get rid of it. I personally couldn't care less the reasons or events leading up to the circumstance.

Strongly agreed .

A man does not get pregnant  . It's not even close to 50/50. You have no idea what pregnancy does to a person's body and mind. Women don't leave men to spite them out of child support. Taking your child from the biological father isn't something women just do to 'run off with another man'.
Just because you wouldn't, doesn't mean 100% of women wouldn't. Yes a man can't get pregnant so he should have absolutely no say at all? It still takes 2 people to get pregnant.
I dont see why women complain about having to get pregnant, if you dont want kids, dont have them and stop complaining. If you want them, dont complain about having some pain, cravings, and people doing what you ask. If you did get pregnant and dont want the kid, i say abortion.

Actually, Frigo is a male who swears a lot in his language so his opinon is really important. He clearly understands the mental and physical pains of pregnancy and childbirth just as much as a pregnant woman does, as well as the situations leading up to pregnancy, aka some unthinking dumb slut doesn't use a condom (?!?) and gets herself pregnant, so she deserves it, serves her right.
Everyone in all nations has great sex education obviously, there's definitely no misunderstanding of what it takes to avoid being pregnant even in first world nations.
