Well, I understand them, but only for certain reasons. What I don't understand, are those that use it as birth control, which is far too many of them. Why can't women and their partners do the things I always suggest? Why is it so so hard when it's also a human's life on the line?
Personal responsibility, why so little? Whether you're 13 years old or 65, why is it so hard to plan appropriately? There are so many ways to avoid an unwanted pregnancy, but then endless amounts end up in an abortion clinic for an unwanted pregnancy.
The overall question is simple, why can't folks use their personal responsibility and lower the abortion numbers? Is it just that folks have overall poor responsibility, regardless of age, or just when it comes to a pregnancy?
The first one that comes to mind and perhaps the cheapest - a condom. Why can't folks use a condom and what, 90+% of pregnancies are avoided right there? Oh, you say it doesn't feel as good? So you would rather take an unborn life for a little while of pleasure?
Same goes with a woman taking the pill. It IS HER BODY after all, right? Rather than snuffing a life out, why not plan a visit with a doctor and get the pill? I know not all women qualify, but a LOT do. Why so hard?
Abstinence? Yeah, I know, laughable in today's society. But it works pretty well. And it's probably something that parents should teach their children, even if it doesn't work. And of course, teach them and embed in them personal responsibility.
Patch, sponge, ring? Pills, shot, implant? And more likely. Many options if someone is willing to take the time and responsibility with their own lives. But then complain down the road that "It's my body" and choose an abortion?
Vasectomy? Why not? If married or about to, and do not want a child, and know it will end up with an "unwanted pregnancy" and an abortion clinic - then why not?
There are an endless amount of options and ways to avoid an unwanted pregnancy. They all involve a little bit of responsibility though. Is that really too much to ask? I mean, if you don't, you're going to end up at a doctor anyway it sounds.
