I hate abortion, and I wish that people didn't get them. With that said, I can't get pregnant; the legality of abortion should be debated between those who can.

People would attempt abortions or they'd have back alley abortion clinics no matter what, so personally having it legal is the safest and most logical thing to do.

I meant 'pro-life' as in, Aikaflip seems to consider life to have a positive value. I lean towareds antinatalism - I don't think life is a good thing, in and of itself.

I have no issue with it, but I don't understand why the people who are for it argue from the perspective of it not being murder. It is very clearly murder in the same way that stepping on a spider or swatting a fly is murder. Either way,

Only in case of rape, danger to mother and/or child's health (including incest), and anything I'm forgetting. If you know you can't afford to properly raise a child you should avoid pregnancy at all costs, so simply don't have sex when you know a pregnancy would be detrimental to you and your child.

Well, only if you really never, ever want to have children. I'd like to at SOME point so if I had the means to raise a child and it happened accidentally, at that point I would probably just keep the child.

so i guess i won't have sex until then

Should be legal if:
If people don't want to have a baby.
Why? You dont need know.

Nobody (especially men, not including trans men, unless its some special case like they were raped by them & don't want the baby) shouldn't have a say on whether or not they should get an abortion, because its not their body.

If a woman wants an abortion, she gets it. No reason for her to go through pains for a child she doesn't want.

This overrides the request of the man if he wants to keep the child. He doesn't have to go through the whole birth thing. If he doesn't want to abort then he doesn't have to pay (Unless the woman has no means, and then he needs to contribute).

If a man wants an abortion and the woman doesn't, he doesn't have to support the kid.

Where is the logic behind making them pay though? If they have a kid because they were too poor to pay for an abortion that would be more costly for tax payers than if they got an abortion paid for. Im not saying they necessarily should be paid for by the government but I am just saying there is a flaw to that logic in any country that does have services for poor people.

didn't think about that tbh. There should be government funding available for people from low income backgrounds. I just really dislike the idea of abortion being used as a means of contraception and I think charging people for it would prevent that. Maybe a system of everyone getting 2 free abortions and then paying for others is better

Yes, what people whose actions will never affect me do with their bodies is not my nor anyone else's decision. In parenting classes, it is stressed that parents wait until they are ready, so why should we punish people with an entirely new human being if something happened and they couldn't wait until they're ready. The child shouldn't have to be born into a less than optimal position because the parents weren't ready too. However, I do think the cut off date should be before the age of viability. If the mother's past that point, she needs to be informed of her other options so she (and the father too if he's present) can make the best decision she(/they) can.

I haven't been checking out the MAL forums for the past 2 days, and I'm too lazy to catch up on all the replies in this thread now, so I'll just interject by throwing my own opinion on this in here:

I think abortion should be legal. Even if it's made illegal, people will still be getting abortions done illegally, which could arguably be more dodgy than getting them done by licensed doctors.

Protection doesn't always work, condoms break, the pill sometimes fails, and if a person didn't intend to have a baby, I see no problem in getting the foetus terminated before it grows into an actual baby.
I think it's a lot worse for children who are unwanted to be born into this world, than simply terminating them before they have a chance to suffer.

Then of course you also have problems with the foetus, a high probability of the mother dying during childbirth, the parents not being financially stable enough to care for a baby, etc.
There's plenty of reasons why abortion should be legal.

Of course.
For those who say It shouldn't: you are not the one who are going to have the child. And some people just can't take the responsibility.
Also, in some countries some people just don't have access to protection or even information about it. I live in Brazil and some of my country regions are really poor, teens there just don't have access to information about prevention and a lot of poor women die because of illegal abortion. Its the fifth cause of women's death here. The rich just pay the clandestine medics to abort and the poor die. Its so obvious that it should be legal. Also, just because it is illegal it doesn't mean that people won't do it. At least let them do it in a secure way, it's a health issue.
