Alright guys, I'm about to get a little political so if that's not your bag, don't read any further.
(You probably already figured that out by the title of the post, but anyway.)
I want to talk about the term "Pro-Life" and what it really means to label oneself as such. For starters, let's discuss the term, "Pro-Life". "Pro-Choicers" aren't anti-life. I think we would all say we are largely pro-life, so the term "Pro-Life" is completely meaningless. Almost everyone who's not psychopathic asshole would say they are "for" life. What they should be called is "Anti-Choice". Because that's really all it boils down to.
Are you for a woman's right to choose, or against it?
And let's break down what that means, aside from someone's ridiculous magic-daddy beliefs. Let's talk about what that means for actual LIVES. (Y'know, since you're "for" life, and all.) What this means, to be "Pro-Life", is that if your girlfriend, sister, mother, daughter, co-worker, etc. were to find herself pregnant with a child she either did not want, or was not prepared for, based upon financial, emotional, or other reasons, you would prefer that the government FORCES her to carry and birth this baby AGAINST her will. Or, I don't know, get an illegal, and very dangerous, back-alley abortion that could leave her dead or severely injured. ('Cause we all know that criminalizing abortion won't make it stop. It will just make it unregulated.) So... Pro-Life? Hmpf. Who's, exactly? 'Cause you certainly aren't pro-my-life.
