it's a hard nuanced complex decision, that men have no business giving an opinion on. if women legislated any requirement on men around their private parts, there would be a revolution

BS, I'll have an opinion on anything I choose to have an opinion on. If I choose to voice that opinion, that's another choice I have made based on my opinion.
With this logic, women could never ask a man to have a vasectomy & the legislative question is all about the unique human entities living in the womb of females having the same right to life as encoded in the Constitution

I can't imagine the man who could get close enough to impregnate her without a paper bag. Every time she used to appear on the TV -- we lived in Washington State so saw her on the tube with some frequency -- my husband used to holler "UGH!" and change the channel.

the people who are upset about abortion are not trying to send womens rights back to the dark ages ! thats a left wing lie ! the people who are pro life actually believe that killing a baby in the womb for convenience is murder ! we truly believe [RIGHTLY] that abortion on demand is evil ! so take your leftwing stepping on womens rights bull and shove it !

I could be far more concerned about a woman's rights if women were more responsible. I just don't see any leftist women who believe that they have a responsibility to prevent pregnancy in the first place.

I don't think you fully understand what an abortion actually is. Until you figure that out, you will never understand our revulsion.
At the moment of fertilization, a human life with unique DNA is created. The stage of development is irrelevant & simply a semantic argument to distract from the true fact that an "abortion" is the taking of an innocent, unique & vulnerable human life.
I would argue the same if men gave birth because it is murder

Science is clear: Life begins at fertilization | Human Life | Abortion

Science teaches that life begins at fertilization. It is a scientific fact that an organism exists after conception that did not exist before conception.
