[TW: abortion, pro-life, cissexist language] Pro-Choice

bebinn:

itsbeenayear:

I feel like I’ve been seeing a lot of pro-choice propaganda lately. You hear all the typical arguments, that the mom should have a say in her life… That the baby is not really alive… It would be worse off for the mom to have the baby because she cannot take care of the kid… etc etc…

How can people be so selfish? I mean, I’m a teen girl, I get it. I understand how totally life changing and devastating it would be to become pregnant right now. How hard my life would become and how I could never go back to the way I was before. It would be so easy just to make that baby go away.

But it wouldn’t be about just me anymore, and pretending like I was the only one who had a say in it is disillusioned and wrong.

I watched a video in health class once showing a baby being aborted. The baby was literally struggling inside his mother’s womb to get away from the tools the doctor was using. I watched it writhe in agony as it was slowly being killed. You cannot watch something like that and then turn around and say the baby isn’t truly alive, or that it cannot feel yet. The proof is clear as crystal.

So I am all pro-choice… pro-choice for the CHILD. Shouldn’t they have a say in what happens to them?

And as for who would take care of the child if they were not aborted… as hard as it would be, I would take in any child if I knew that it meant they would be saved from abortion. And I sincerely mean that. 

Oh my god. They’re showing The Silent Scream in schools.

This is why that movie is wrong: The Facts Speak Louder Than “The Silent Scream”

More on fetal pain here.

Also, can we just point out what this girl is calling “pro-choice propaganda”. I mean, really? Apparently the “mom should have a say in her life” is propaganda and not like, a legitimate argument. And then the video she talks about is ACTUALLY propaganda. I thought this was a joke at first, and I’m still not convinced it’s not. Just… pro-choice propaganda? The irony in this post is just killing me.
