      That’s why it always confuses me when so many women want to get married for married sake.

      This time period is a brief aberration, the institution of marriage, dating back thousands of years before Jesus, has always historically been a property transaction, with the wife being the property exchanged for property/familial status. There are still parts of the world where that is the case.

      At least 4,000 years isn’t wiped away in a hundred. Personally, I think a romantic, consenting partnership should have entirely new terminology attached to it. Rehabbing the institution of marriage is like trying to rehab the term enslavement.

      Hell marriage is already regressing back to its natural/historical state here in the US, with several states trying to abolish no fault divorce to remove any agency women have won with regards to romantic partnership.

    Oh no you see adoption. We have the best adoption centers and pro lifers line up to adopt. Adopters get training and support, adoptees get excellent pre-K and excellent public schools. Everyone gets excellent universal healthcare. See?

            It can be helpful for anyone when reading text that doesn’t indicate tone very well.

            Not everyone is a professional writer that can properly express sarcasm through text

          Poe’s Law, without a clear indicator of the author’s intent, any parody or sarcastic expression of extreme views can be mistaken by some readers for a sincere expression of those views.

      The sad thing is that stable, loving families will line up to adopt a healthy newborn. But then you have some of the same fuckers shaming the mother because that’s somehow dodging your responsibilities or taking the easy way out.

        Don’t forget conservatives blocking out thousands of married gay and lesbian couples from adopting despite them ACTIVELY wanting to adopt.

    the questions that follow are why do they want to control women? and how much control do they want over women?

          Why do billionaires exist? Because it’s never enough for many. You would think a sane person who gets to 100 million dollars would get bored and do something other than hoard money, but it’s never enough.

          Same with control. Some aren’t happy with anything in their life being beyond their control, including the people in their lives.

      Thats a complete misunderstanding. The real issue is that a baby shouldn’t be murdered.

        I need a kidney and you’re the only compatible donor. If you don’t let me have one of your kidneys, it’s murder, right?

        what baby? a fetus is not a baby. what you want to do is force a girl or a woman to carry a fetus to term in her body and endure the labour birth it from her body, against her will. That’s pro-forced-pregnancy and pro-forced-birth. then she will be forced to care for a baby that she did not want. This is some sadistic bullshit, and shows hatred for girls, women, and for children.

        if you like birthing babies so much, go get pregnant and pop them out every few months.

                what victim? a fetus? if a fetus is a victim then every sperm that did not get to fertilize an egg is also a victim. because it could’ve become a fetus that a woman could be forced to carry & birth. It was prevented from being born.

                Girls & women are living, breathing human beings whose human right to autonomy over their body & their right to consent is taken away and they are dehumanized and forced to become incubators by anti-abortionists. To ignore their humanity, ignore the dehumanization they have to endure and live with for the rest of their lives because of anti-abortionists, but declare a fetus as a human is perversity that only those who hate girls & women are capable of…
