It's me the "IDIOT" anonymous January 16 2003, 10:46:06 UTC

Well BabyBitch/Bec, I don't know you at all... I'v never met you, i've never talked to you, I don't even live in the same state as you. I live in San Diego, CA. I know your name is Bec because if you look at the 1st person who posted a comment, he/she called you "BEC". I have to post anonymously because I don't have a livejournal account so, I can't "log in ( ... )

Nate, i think that through your experience you have seen some of the worst case scenarios for people wanting abortions. i respect your view, and my previous post was not meant to offend. i want to make that clear. i was just posing examples as to why i think that abortion can be right ( ... )

We're saying you're an idiot because you're trying to impose something on someone, when you really have no right to be doing that. You're telling people to constrict their viewpoints and not be accepting. Honestly, it's not like women are like: "Oh hey, I'm pregnant. BETTER GET ANOTHER ONE OF THEM ABORTIONS! WHEEEE HEE HEE!" It's not an easy decision. It can't be. But it's sure as hell better to resort (yes, resort) to it than to bring someone into the world that is not going to have a good existence.

I called him an idiot because of the "what if your mom had an abortion with you" arguement. LAME. My mom actually got pregnant with me when she was 40, 8 years after my brother and after a week of getting off the pill thinking she was menopausal anyway. Her doctor actually told her to consider having an abortion because back then (30 years ago) there wasn't amniocentesis and there was a high chance she'd have diabetes, high blood pressure, and have a baby with down syndrome. He told her to think about it. My dad told her it was up to her and he'd support her no matter her decision (My dad rules). She said it was basically a dream she had that night of me being born healthy that made her decide to have me. But honestly when she told me that story I wasn't thinking "good thing my mom didn't abort me!" I thought, "how scary for my mom to spend 9 months worrying about if she could do this and risking her health like that ( ... )

you know, when i read the first anonymous comment, i had no doubt in my mind that it was from a man.

i rarely ever meet women that are pro-life.

I've actually met two. That was incredibly surprising, because they seemed so very open-minded about things. And they were vehemently pro-life, which was very bizarre to me. Both big Catholic upbringings, too.

on the roe v. wade anniversary a few years ago, i showed up with others to protest a pro life group's "vigil" on the steps of the tuscaloosa county court house. i ran into my chick spanish student teacher on the other side of the picket line.
there are plenty of female pro lifers out there. many of them went to my high school and had babies that their parents were forced to bring up. oh the bible belt.
