anti-abortion folks still get abortions

they won't get pregnant, but they will get a head injury and possibly die. it's inherently risky behavior. why would you do that to your children?

i think you do have an unhealthy attitude towards sex. you have this crazy idea that it affects people in different legal situations differently. is a woman who gets married and then ditched by a worthless husband any less badly off than a woman who has sex with a boyfriend who also later ditches her? no. sex and marriage do not change anything. it's people who deal dishonestly with each other.

the best part is that he was too thick to get my use of the term UNDUE BURDEN as a statement of legality.

because i used to be a fundie.

when i have sex, i wear a helmet. i am on the pill and we always use condoms. i only have sex with one person and i have been tested and he... didn't need to be lol. if something crazy happens and i feel off the next day, i'll go get plan b. if that doesn't work, thank constitution, i have other options. it's none of anyone's business if i'm having sex and it's no one's business except my doctor if i have an abortion.you can still hurt your head while wearing a helmet. and that's what doctors are for. but most anti-choice people are against helmets. they don't want sex-ed in schools, they don't want condoms available, they're trying to outlaw birth control and are trying to get insurance companies to stop covering it. they've gotten some pharmacists to stop selling it. it's criminal. what about married women who don't want to have babies but don't want to throw themselves into menopause?it's not about sex, it's not about marriage, it's about women being free from men ruling their lives. and you crazy people don't want us to have an ounce.*edit* cray to crazy in the last lineThis message has been edited by brennakimi, 03-29-2006 01:09 PM

yes well. i like fucking so i'm not going to. instead, i'm going to do what's right and try to keep you and the other crazies out of my medical records.

there is no life until it can survive on it's own.

yes. the risk is mine. and i take it. but congress needs to butt out.

there is no life until it can survive on its own.
even the bible makes a big deal about drawing breath.

there is absolutely no evidence that monogamy is best. lots of people around the world practice both polyandry and polygyny. there is no evidence that this has a negative effect on their cultures. there are men in cultures that still have bride-prices who will share a wife with a brother or close friend until they can each afford their own. having a wife in their culture enables them to have someone to assist them by feeding them while they work. this improves their output and their income. this is beneficial to them in spite of not being able to afford separate wives. in cultures that practice polygyny, there is often a high pregnancy mortality rate. so it is easier for a man to have enough children if he has many wives. these tend to be sheephearding peoples who need lots of people to watch the flocks. further, in these cultures, there is less feeling of ownership of the spouse and so jealousy isn't a problem. monogamy leads to jealousy which is very destructive.

that's all i'm saying. so if you didn't do anything wrong, stop telling the rest of us that we are. no, because then you shouldn't be having non-procreative sex with your wife. and that's just silly. just the same for me and the boyfriend i love. it may end up being a temporary 'marriage'. but i am faithful and that's what matters. there's no paperwork and i don't wanna squirt out a brat. but no different than you. the only thing that might support that is that weird verse about god killing the guy who pulled out. and that was because he sinned against his brother by not providing his brother an heir. not because he used the rhythm method.This message has been edited by brennakimi, 03-30-2006 02:51 PM

well. his brother was dead. it's called a kinsman redeemer. his job is to care for and provide a child to his relative's widow. it was to ensure that she would be cared for and not have to turn to unsavory crafts.it's a nice sentiment but i'm not sure it would work in our monogamous culture. imagine if you had to take on your brother's three wives in addition to your own.

that's uncalled for.

i'm not so sure. i was more referring to this in simile. but the muslims do have a "marriage for like" in sharia law. women are permitted to marry a man they are interested in and request a divorce within the year. cause you know. they're so very restrictive. i love taking classes from actual muslims who know what they're talking about.
