Have you SEEN an anti-abortion rally? LOTS of women.
Men are the ones making the laws. And they have no idea about the biology. Take the politician from Ohio for example, who suggested that an ectopic pregnancy should be reimplanted into the uterus.
Don't tell me what to do.
This is the actual Republican platform. They don't care about if they're right about biology. They care about getting power, full stop. In the pursuit of the 'right' people telling the 'wrong' people what to do, and in the pursuit of keeping the 'wrong' people from telling the 'right' people what to do, anything goes. Hypocrisy, lies, crime, election fraud, subverting courts, coups, false patriotism, false piety, terrorism, even outright murder... anything goes.
Know the enemy, spread the word to your friends and family (and maybe further).
As a man I find the biology interesting to learn. I'm pretty sure e topic is due to the womb not forming correctly is it not? I'm probably wrong, but atleast I know that its impossible to save an ectopic pregnancy
Not quite, but a good guess anyway. Ectopic pregnancies can happen to anyone.
The uterine (fallopian) tubes are not homolog to the vas deferens. They are actually extensions from the uterus. They are not sealed to the ovaries and simply open up in the abdomonal cavity. They have tentacle like potrusions which try to grab onto eggs released by the ovary. When they fail at their job, the egg ends up somewhere in the abdomonal cavity.
Transplantation is impossible for multiple reasons. One has to do with the placenta not forming inside either. You'd have to sever the supply and expect it to heal before a fetus dies. Another has to do with surgery on pregnant women should be avoided as much as possible. Then there is also the problen of fitting a fetus into the uterus. Imagine trying to fit a frail balloon inside a smaller tougher balloon. Surgery like this could result in the fetus simply not making it through alive. If it did, it could also mess up its own signaling and result in a miscarriage.
Even if all that were possible. The risk to the mother's health would make it not worth it. Surgical intervention would damage the surrounding tissues. Imagine leaving a fresh suture on a uterus that needs to expand massively within weeks to months.
Thank you for correcting my miss understanding👍️
You say men as in like about 4 billion people are huddling in a room all evil like crunching up laws to make women's lives worst which is certainly not the case.
Also kind of a moot point as the same minority of "men" as you say creating laws, also create laws that don't benefit men in general at all.
I mean these laws are objectively making women's lives worse. Their intentions are almost always religious in terms of these things, so the intent is irrelevant as it's not based in reality, but the outcome is still the same: more women dying because of denied access to healthcare, which is a human right and more women being forced into less favorable outcomes through being forced to give birth,
But they do because they inherently remove power and an ability to make reasonable choices from women and by doing so give power to men wanting to control their women. Power and control over women is the whole goddamn point.
You're wrong here logically and morally and you're on the wrong side of history here.
Kindly reread what I wrote because it seems you didn't unless cherry picking parts of a post is what now passes as reading, in which case I suppose you think highly of yourself right now? Either way, doesn't matter.
Is this how you normally talk to people? Either way, I stand by all my points.
That's how I normally talk with bots
Pretending that other people that may disagree with you are "bots" is very unhealthy, dehumanizing behavior that only leads down darker things. Not everybody that disagrees with you is a bot or an NPC, including me.
You don't say
Why do they want that power and control though? Why do others not? ~Cherri
apologies, you are correct, it is not all men. I forgot to qualify it, it is white christian men who push their religion onto the rest of society. And I say this as a white male raised christian.
"Not all men" is always the wrong response.
I dont disagree but they create laws that fuck everyone over men, women, trans, cis, straight, Queer. It doesn't matter, but the current ones are focused on controls over women, and their bodys
Don't tell me what to do.
They're not evil per se, it's just that they're after power, and they don't care if they do evil things to get power... which, to a lot of people, means they're evil. And yes, this is the actual Republican platform - straight white Christian men getting power over people who aren't straight and white and Christian and male. In the pursuit of the 'right' people telling the 'wrong' people what to do, and in the pursuit of keeping the 'wrong' people from telling the 'right' people what to do, anything goes. Hypocrisy, lies, crime, election fraud, subverting courts, coups, false patriotism, false piety, terrorism, even outright murder... anything goes.

I have seen multiple anti-abortion rallies/protests and it's always predominantly men and old women past their child bearing years. What's your point?
https://news.gallup.com/poll/245618/abortion-trends-gender.aspx
41% of women identify as pro life according to that, and 47% of men. Much higher that I would have hoped. Either way hard to say that is all men.
Maybe but again it doesn't take age into account and Gallup polls, like most polls like this are bullshit and tend to have an inherent bias. Just think who even answers polls like this in the first place. I'd bet my pants that it probably skews older.
Gallup polls are a really fun thing to do at work when you're bored between meetings
Like old myspace quizzes, but with a purpose.
If someone tried to stop me at the mall or something to take a survey I would probably scream "who sent you!? What do they want?" And run away.
A lot of "pro life" women often turn out to be "I wouldn't have an abortion" women. I've talked to plenty who turned out to actually be pro choice.
The average age in the US is near 40. There are as much women between 20-24 as there are between 60-64. When it comes down to it only about 15% of the population can get pregnant without medical science. If anything the numbers should be much more pro-forced birth, but they aren't because empathy.
