Abortion is NOT....

Abortion is NOT about murder, or even babies really. Abortion is about CHOICE, and the RIGHT to have personal autonomy over one's body. Pro lifers make it about murder, conservatives make it about morality, but it isn't. It's about the right to do with one's body what one wants. That's all it's about. That is why limiting abortion limits women's rights. When you tell a person what they can and cannot do with their body and specifically target women for this, it becomes a way of control. How far does that slope go? We've already seen court ordered c-sections. How far can we let this slide? It's not about anything other than a woman's right to choose what happens to her body. That's all it is. That is why, even though I hate abortion and believe it's murder...I still think that the government should stay the heck out of it and the choice should be between the doctor and the woman. Period. Bash away.

It's about choice alright, you are choosing to end a life, not a choice to be taken lightly!

Then why can't I sell MY body for sex? It's MY body, it's MY choice, yet it's still illegal?

I think if Abortion is to be remain legalized, then women should be able to sell their bodies if they so choose.

That is growing and feeding off of YOUR body.
