I’ll never forget the time my girlfriend came back from a planned parenthood in tears because 50 or so women were shouting baby killer and whore at her. The best part is she wasn’t even getting an abortion. She was getting prenatal vitamins for a healthier pregnancy.

The worst part is, these people are also against contraceptives but at the same time, they don’t want to support the poor in society. It’s like they want to see more people suffer in society to feel better about themselves.

Exactly.

People react to suffering in one of two ways: "I don't want anyone else to suffer what I have", and "If I have to suffer, everyone else should suffer too".

Just a thought, but you can't get pregnant if you abstain from sex. Perhaps instead of needing abortions, people just need to not put babies in themselves.

Just say no one wants to have sex with you and move on

So you feel entitled to sex without the consequences. Interesting. Do you think men should be able to have sex without consequences? Do you support financial abortion?

I've seen many anti abortion protestors having a stance against rape pregnancy abortions and constantly trying to stop contraceptives from being given out at these clinics. There is really no logical reason behind this. At least not that I can come up with. Why block contraceptives if you're against abortions? It just boggles my mind. And then those pregnancies they're trying to save? They're against economic support for them. They want kids to be born into families that don't have the economic resources to raise one for some reason...

Mate, you’re trying to convince someone who is an avid user of mgtow. No one wants to have sex with him, that’s why he’s pissed. :’)

Well my guess is that his retort will be that it's HIS choice to be celibate. Which I guess is true. If you are intentionally a piece of shit to the point where it repels people, I guess the cause is your choice.

Actually not celibate, just offering some apparently upsetting advice. Not sure why you're all so tweaked by common sense.

Not sure why you would think I'm "pissed". Just implying that making responsible choices would remove the need to murder children in the womb. Not sure why you're all freaking out so hard.

Also, crawling someone's comment history for insult fodder is pretty creepy. You should seek therapy.

You know two things can be separate issues. Mashing them together to prove an illegitimate point is not good. If you are poor after having a kid you were poor before having the kid. Nothing will change that except the choices you make. I don’t agree with abortion but idc what people wanna do to themselves.
