Abortion and it's consequences: Men vs. Women

I am a woman and I feel like the decision is up to the woman. There are too many things to factor in, was she raped? Should she have to suffer the trauma for the whole nine months? Is there something really wrong with the fetus? These things make a big difference and if you have never been faced with any of these questions then you can't possibly know how you would react. I don't think we should be able to choose for everyone. I don't personally like it, but that is for me and only me. I don't have the right to make such an important and personal decision for anyone else.

Abortions emotionally drain a women I know because I had 7 of them. I am at peace with it because, I am a christian and I believe that each of these children are in heaven, even though I made a major mistake.

From a women's perspective, I see no reason for abortion. If I fool around and get pregnant unwillingly, that's part of the known consequences I now have to live with. If for some horrific reason I get pregnant by rape, there's still a reason for the life of the child. I don't believe in accidents. God is the giver of life and He gave that child life at the moment of conception. Who am I to thwart God's plan? I believe the same in EVERY situation.

I am male and have 2 views. My ex-girlfriend left when she was 2 months pregnant and i thaught it would be wrong to bring a child into the world into an unstable life(she was also a lazy freeloader). After 3 years of not seeing my son very often i got pissed off enough to gain custody, i now live with my son and my ew girlfriend. icannot imagine life without my son now. I think it would have been a very selfish act to have had her have an abortion. Everyone is diferent and there situations are diferent. So long as everyone makes their decisions on their best judgement(Based on the information at the time) that is all anyone can expect of others and themselves.

I'm a woman, I don't have children and will probably never have any. I have always believed that abortion is murder. I think they could just as easily have the baby and put it up for adoption. The only way I could ever justify it is if the mother and child were going to die b/c of the pregnancy. !!HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!! **AT PEACE WITHIN** ~~STAND STRONG IN YOUR BELIEFS~~

I'm a woman and I'm pro-choice. I don't believe that life begins at conception, and if a woman doesn't wish to be pregnant I see no reason to force her to continue the pregnancy. Carrying a pregnancy to term is a huge commitment. Becoming a parent is a huge commitment.No one should be forced into either.

I think abortion can really be hard on the woman. But if a woman goes and has an abortion and the man wanted the baby it could be hard on him emotionally. I think if you are going to play you should pay. So if you get pregnant deal with it. If you dont want the child give it up for adoption and give it a chance at a good life. You should always think about what you are doing before you do it. I know its easier said then done. I just feel abortion is wrong.

Every woman that has an abortion goes through something different. It can be very hard on a woman or it may not. A close friend of mine had an abortion in high school. She had dreams to go to college and if she decided to have the baby then it would of set her back. 4rs later she has a baby and I don't think she regrets it a day in her life that she had an abortion. It was the best decision for her. As for other women....they may take it emotionally hard and not be able to deal with an aboriton...so my question is why do they do it? And as for men..I think they should have a say if their gf/ wife wants an abortion..but I know it doesn't work that way...If you are in a commited relatinship then both the guy and the girl should decide what's best...I don't think it's right for some women to use abortion as their birth control method butI do believe that sometimes you have to do what's right for both the baby and the mother....and what may seem to some people as wrong may seem justifiable to others.

I am a male and believe that abortion should not be used as a means of birth control. It should be allowed in cases of rape! It should also be allowed in certain other cases depending upon the situation.
