excuse me??? what are women supposed to abstain or something? you can get pregnant even if you are on the pill and using a condom.


Highly improbable. If you dont want lumped with little Jack, get the guy to wear a slack! No plans for baby Jill ? Then use the pill!


I don't think you understood what she just said. :?

well that's what i would do in anycase. like duh. but there is a chance. there's always a chance.


Then if you dont want the baby put him up for adoption. There are plenty of couples that would take him/her.


Yeah... If the baby is white, cute, and in perfect health. It is probable that the child of an Autistic/AS Parent(s) would be born with Autism/AS. Do most couples want an Autistic/AS baby? I rest my case.

Actually, scratch that. They probably wouldn't notice the AS/Autism yet. So what do they do with the child when the yfind out it does have Autism/AS? Abuse it? Dump it back into the system where nobody will want it because its not a cute baby free from "defects"?

I did understand. I just find it unlikely that a couple would use condoms and use the pill and still get pregnant. Lets say for the very unusual case that it does happen then she should either make do or put it up for adoption.

It is interesting that this thread would move to just this topic when it started being about GWB.

As far as I know, he has rather strong views on the topic, doesn't he?

if i give birth to a person it's my job to make sure he or she survives in this world. and another reason is, i don't want to give birth in the first place, and i don't want to be pregnant. easy for you to be all high and mighty.

exactly. thanks for the reminder, that's another reason, a very big reason. the kid might be autistic, or AS, and it would probably have OCD and all kinds of problems i have and my dad has... and i'm too messed up to care for a child, let alone one with special needs, and i would NOT dump that child on clueless NT parents.

and another thing, i'm on medication that would affect the baby if i got pregnant, but i can't and won't give up that medication because i would go suicidal again without it and then me and the baby would both be dead.


and now to get back on topic; bush is a misogynistic ass.

there's now a separate thread to discuss abortion in the mature forum:

http://www.wrongplanet.net/modules.php? ... pic&t=4901

could we please continue the discussion there, and use this thread to discuss the all round marvellousness (or not) of dear dubya. thanks.

I can't help but wonder if everyone' fixation with Bush is the result of OCD?

couldnt you split the thread into two? Moving the abortion debate into the mature forum.


the thread hasn't been split as doing so would mean spliting off some of the Bush debate, as the two subjects are too interwoven. just to let you know why it's all still here.

Why bother? We won't find any there.

It baffles me how people keep electing stupid religion-driven republicans into office... Its like they're just begging to get their civil rights taken away. Look at the Patriot Act! Congress passed it without reading it! :roll:
