Sorry if this is too serious/divisive, but what do you guys think about the whole abortion battle? In my opinion they're only doing this because the birth rate is down, which is crazy to me when there are clearly many other ways to address that than just forcing every woman in the country to adhere to your beliefs.

Its absolutely absurd. They should focus on fixing the disproportionate healthcare system and keep abortions safe.

There's far more important things they should be putting their time and effort into. Why stick their noses into our uterus?

I think it's to try to preserve certain races. They don't care about all of us.

Agreed, we're naive to think otherwise

I don't think this battle will ever be resolved, regardless of the reasoning behind either argument.

True. But there would be less abortions if women who are sexually active could actually just go into a pharmacist and buy birth control pills. This is the current practice practically everywhere else in the world. I mean, does a doctor really have to prescribe the pill. Smh

I think it's another way to control women and take us back to an era where women couldn't vote, own property, work, or even go beyond highschool. Conservative Men "want women to be put in their place " the kitchen and the bedroom. BLAH My grandma lived to be 89yrs old born in 1931 she told me about how dangerous it was to have an abortion, women would throw themselves down the stairs, have their husband or pay someone to beat them into a miscarriage. How back alley abortions involved unsanitary conditions, utensils were literally from the kitchen. One method involved a hanger, and to think after finally getting our rights as women it can all be taken away due to a vote.

Company considers the woman a riskier bet due to possibility she’ll take maternity leave — and considers the man less risky for his ineligibility to take as much leave. 🤷
