    I suppose there are men who want an abortion, too. Right? I mean if some accident happened with the contraception and you find out a few weeks later when your partner misses their period. Or you have second thoughts. Or you need to finish your education before spending the next 15 years raising a kid and supporting a family right now… I believe there are quite some reasons for the man-side of things, to have an opinion?! I don’t think going nuclear on the options is a valid compromise for anyone?

      Oh sure, but those obviously aren’t in the anti-camp.

      Its a compromise for some, not all. Which is why I also say there is probably some religious involvement there as well, just not how they are pushing the propaganda.

        Hmm, I still don’t understand. I mean if men want to be able to decide, too… being anti and wanting a law that strictly prohibits it for everyone, also strips them from the ability to make a decision. And additionally it’s not a compromise. Forcing someone to something regardless, e.g. bearing a child is one of the extremes, not some middle-ground in between… You’d need a proper reason to force people to do something. And that can’t be I want to decide over someone else’s life. So either it’s religuous or backed with some reasoning that’s more than an opinion, or just for the sake of it.

          Ah, here is your first issue - you expect rational thought. It isn’t, they aren’t.

          Forcing someone to something regardless, e.g. bearing a child is one of the extremes, not some middle-ground in between…

          The woman’s life, opinions, etc, dont matter to them. Its a middle ground for these men, nothing else. I’d also say I’d assume for them its more about controlling what a woman can do, and what they believe is the purpose of a woman. Which is why I say there are likely religious undertones behind a lot of it (or just straight up misogyny).

          You’d need a proper reason to force people to do something

          “I’m the guy and this is what I want” - that is their reason.

          Dont expect any sort of coherent or rational thought from anyone anti-abortion. Either they are incredibly ignorant, misogynistic, or a religious zealot.

          Or, more likely, a combination of the three.
