The choice

A lot of pro-choicers say having an abortion or keeping the baby is a woman’s choice, because it is her body. But isn’t the definition of choice being able to choose from one or more options? And when a women chooses an abortion, isn’t it her right to be informed in a proper way about the upcoming procedure? Such as the possible numerous complications. Or the actual size of the baby. Normally we would sue a doctor who lies about a surgery.

For instance, if I broke my leg, and the doctor said that it’s just a small crack and he would just fix my leg and I’d be fine in a few days but later it turns out that it is a very big crack and it is a risky procedure that might cause the loss of my leg, and I might never be able to walk again. I’d be so mad because he lied and didn’t tell the whole truth.

The statement that it is still a woman’s body and she has her own choice loses its value as soon as she comes near the abortion clinic. Because then the ‘’security’’ (who protect the mothers from what or whom?) will pull the mothers in as soon as they see mothers talking to us. Why? Why would they do that? If it’s a woman’s choice, let her talk to whoever she wants!

Or maybe… they are afraid that these women might want to keep their baby after talking to us, which would result in a loss of money. Funny, as the woman’s health is so called important to them and choice as the most important statement of the pro-choice group. And a pregnancy rarely kills women, compared to the numerous abortions that go against nature.

Fact: Aborted baby’s stamcells are used in anti-wrinkle cream.
