They saw discrepancies in immigrant communities for 2011 which was the year they went into detail stats to see what was happening, figures suggested up to 4,700 unborn females were aborted in England in 2011 for being female and not male, even though the practice is illegal.

Ah well sure that's God's will and what not, baby for you!".. an abortion should never be used as a form of contraception and no-one would advocate that anywhere.. but to say tough luck now, you deal with it, is just a silly argument! Christ alive have we seriously fallen to a point where "wear a condom" is an actual argument?..

eviltwin wrote: » Psychologically it's easier for a man to walk away from a crisis pregnancy than it is for a woman. Sure a woman can have an abortion but she may not want to. Sure she can then place it for adoption but that's a huge emotional burden to bear after carrying a child for nine months. If she goes it alone why should she be forced to rely on taxpayers. As a taxpayer who can't afford another child I already resent paying for irresponsible people without paying for more. To be honest even if men could remove themselves from the responsibility I hope most wouldn't.

eviltwin wrote: » An early abortion is great only if you want an abortion. It's hard enough having an abortion you know is the right choice, how much damage could it do to feel pressured into aborting a baby you actually want.
Gaygooner wrote: » If they want it you shouldn't be forced the abort it, likewise if you don't, you should also have that choice.

Gaygooner wrote: » Women can't always be on the pill. Condoms are safer and more effective birth control. Condoms help prevent unwanted outcomes. If they agree they can have an abortion, but a man should not impose his will on the body of a women, so he has the choices available to him. Snip or condom.
