Women have been denied the right to vote in centuries past and now are being questioned about the right to their bodies and forced to bear a child against their own will in some cases and it is outrageous that men are deciding this factor.
As a female, I think a woman’s right to an abortion is her choice. This issue goes beyond political standpoints. It impacts a woman’s future for the next 18 years!
The decision to stop one’s pregnancy is emotionally, physically, and mentally exhausting and difficult. The decision should solely be made by the woman (the one in the situation) who is forced to care for her child.
Nobody should have authority over someone else’s body and dictate such a life altering choice for the woman.
Society imposing such a restriction of a woman’s right, it compromises not only a woman’s rights to HER body but her dignity.
Financial aspects, support, and timing can affect the choice to have a child and how the child will grow up.
Choice, rights to abortion, and to our body ensures we can protect and care for ourselves and our family in the right healthy time and setting.
It goes beyond political standpoints. It’s personal to all women and they should decide whether they bear a child and when to terminate.
Under no circumstance should a man dictate anything about a woman or her body in such an instance.
The man has the choice of leaving the woman and is left with all the work and liability, even statistically speaking the man 9 times out of 10 leaves the situation rather than sticking with the woman to take care of the child.
Demanding a woman to have a child unexpectedly could be dangerous not only to the mother but the child as well putting both their lives at risk.
It’s truly remarkable how some men are under the impression they know what’s best for women, particularly when it comes to their own bodies and what they “can” and “cannot” do. It must be comforting to believe that their opinions on pregnancy exceed a woman’s rights to make choices about her own life and future.
Women should have the choice and right to abortion in ANY state. Every woman should have full rights. It’s the 21st century; all women deserve the right and freedom to make choices that affect her future and well being.
