Hey Papa! As someone who believes a women should be able to choose the outcome of her pregnancy, I think that applying the parasite analogy to a child is a little extreme and pretty insensitive to the topic. I think for many women, it's a difficult decision to choose and go through with that reality. I think women deserve the right to choose because not having that right is yet another mechanism of control by the patriarchy. I also think that it depends upon when you think life begins, which is subjective.

THE “LOGICAL” CONCLUSION – THOUGHTS AND CONSIDERATIONS ON "PARASITES"
abortion can happen naturally, from stress or unusual events...so to try and control a woman's body is cruel! I agree that a woman has a right to her body (up until they are five, lol). Native Americans had a matriarchal lineage in which the sons stayed with their mothers until they were old enough to hunt. Obviously society has too much time on its hands to be worrying about such minutiae as an unborn child. That fetus could naturally abort for no reason and has been known to. So let it go. Try again. It is not really that big of a deal.

Yeah, there seems to be a lot of subjectivity on issues like this.
My main point was that the "parasite" view is extreme and can lead to even worse things.
It certainly is a difficult choice, but I wish more information was shared about the health risks of the abortion process too.
Besides emotional difficulties that can stem from it, there can be some pretty severe physical complications too.
Thanks @robrigo.
I'll be sending you that shirt by the end of the week and may even include a jar of that Green Ghost Salsa for you!

@robrigo I upvoted your comment in spite of the fact that I respectfully disagree with your opinions, because you are a shining example of how to be civil and respectful when talking about a subject that usually ends in vicious attacks from both sides. Thank you for showing us all how to be human :)
