Transcript
- 0:02I thought I would give my take on woman's body, woman's choice. And
- 0:08it's not just because of a little hanging fruit that it's one of the top
- 0:12ten things that is brought up in the abortion debate, but it's because of
- 0:19my evolving views. Because here's the thing. There was a post I came
- 0:25across and it was reviewing a song with lyrics going something to the effective it's
- 0:35my choice. We carry them, we feed them. And when you find
- 0:42out more about the artist and them being pro abortion, it's like, Oh,
- 0:51they think that being pregnant and giving birth is basically the same as death.
- 1:00Oh, so that's why they come up with the angle that they do,
- 1:06not because they're that stupid about biology. And we'll just point downright a
- 1:11masculating to men in their role in our lives. In the past, I
- 1:19took caring that soul for face value that if I heard certain politicians or read
- 1:26columnists, I would email them back letting them know it's not a woman's body,
- 1:34a woman's choice. Woman don't get pregnant by themselves. There's more to
- 1:38the story. Yeah, totally not as collected as the members of Students for
- 1:46Life saying it's eighty five percent of biologists that confirmed that life starts at conception,
- 1:57even though I think that they're starting to correct too, because there have
- 2:01been some times when I've come across post and they'll respond something the effect of
- 2:09woman don't have penises, so don't say it's a woman's body, woman's choice,
- 2:15that's her baby's penis. And it's just downlight irritating hearing that, because
- 2:19it's like, can't you say something else? And just why are we even
- 2:24going there to begin with? Haven't we've done a good enough job at explaining
- 2:30the issue and the ignorance towards the issue because of taking the eagle. Sixty
- 2:36five percent of women who have had an abortion already have a kid. And
- 2:43when you know about that, it should opened up your eyes. And there
- 2:46has nothing to do with oh, she doesn't want to have a kid,
- 2:50she shouldn't have to have one. But we're not talking about her deciding who
- 2:53have a kid. She already is pregnant. She's deciding to have an abortion
- 2:59because she's not getting support and being fed messages how motherhood isn't a good thing,
- 3:08it affects your career, and those kind of messages saying I don't like
- 3:15abortion doesn't mean shit when the next thing that said is, oh, but
- 3:21I wouldn't tell another woman to not have an abortion and vote for politicians who
- 3:27keep abortion legal instead of doing things like sending them voice messages or emails telling
- 3:35them to make better policies. The apathy not wanting to do anything making the
- 3:42problem worse is what actually happens until the next one. He's Cynric in Greece.
