Joeytheparrot wrote: » Frankly all of your posts on this are just complete nonsensical and full of contradictions. You say you trust women but you have demonstrated you dont - you dont trust them to decide what is right for them. You say that abortion shouldnt be available but you are perfectly fine with it being available for women who travel You claim you dont support abortion abroad really but you are unwilling to really do anything about it. You refuse for example to campaign for reversing the 13th amendment.

You're not demanding that the right to travel be repealed. If a woman has the means to go to the UK for an abortion then that's ok with you.
kylith wrote: » If anything you are in favour of more extreme abortions that any pro-choice person. By denying women abortions locally and telling them to travel what you're saying is 'I want you to have a more traumatic abortion with a fetus that is later term and more developed than it would have been if you could have gone to your GP when you first decided to terminate, since this way you have to arrange travel and save up to afford it'. The abortion you support is closer to 'killing babies' than the abortion I support, since it occurs closer to viability.

end of the road wrote: » no, extreme circumstances such as a threat of life or disability upon the mother, or the baby not being viable to be caried to term. if she wishes to have an abortion by choice for non-extreme circumstances then there is a facility to allow that to happen.

If they ever ask me if I had an abortion I'll be honest with them but right now they're too young to explain it to (although the eldest two do know about the concept of abortion). You don't have a problem with abortion though do you eotr? If I was able to afford to go to England you'd have been fine with that.

Da Boss wrote: » I don’t see your point, if a woman is willing to consent to sex she must be aware of risk of pregnancy and be willing to take risk. If a pregnancy occurs it would be unfortunate for the woman should she not plan it but it’s the risk she takes, it’s not a punishment and the man doesn’t need to recieivr a punishment, nor the woman. However I’d hope a man wouldn’t just walk away on the woman, if he does it gives us men a bad name I think

They are thinking of the poverty they and their current family are in. They are thinking of how having another mouth to feed can exacerbate that poverty.
