Abortion

To me, the idea of abortion has always been something I have thought critically about. While I can understand religion as a reason to be pro-life, I can not fathom the idea that many people argue pro-life not seeming to understand the facts behind what they are saying. For one, many people who are pro-life refuse to take into consideration the fact that women are the ones growing this new life within them. Women are human beings, and while you may view a fertilized egg as a human being, the living, breathing person in charge of growing the fetus are the ones that will be affected. Due to the fact that the woman is in charge of growing the child, they should be the ones with the rights to either continue through with child birth or proceed with an operation, which by the way, does not end the life of the fetus, just terminates pregnancy. In this video, a grown, white male speaks out about the fact that he thinks women should have the right to chose what they do with their bodies. He points out the fact that many white males are basing their facts about pro-life off of an idea that is not true and scientifically proven to be incorrect. A woman in the comments points out the fact that even as a corpse you have the right to what is in their body and what is not. For example, as a dead person I can donate an organ or chose not to. Yet, as a women they chose to try and take the right to make a decision with your body away.
