My mother was advised to abort me by doctors and peers. She stood by her decision to have me.
And you know what? I dont give a fuck.
Im not going to be emotionally manipulated into backwards and reactionary sanctimony just so I can express a currated self importance and narcissism all to demonize healthcare advocates. The people who suggested aborting me are not malicious, but the narrative that I have to champion anti abortion sensibilities because I could have been aborted absolutely is.
I get what you’re saying from an emotional standpoint, but the logic just isn’t all that sound. We are all here due to a chain of causality. I have some cousins where I love them and my aunt dearly, but my uncle never should have been a father. If he had made different decisions, the world would probably be a better place. Closer to the subject at hand, the same logic can (and is) applied to contraception. Abortion has just gained extra weight in some people’s thinking.

But that’s it exactly. The pro-abortion argument is a pro contraception argument. They want to normalize abortion as contraception. And they’ve largely succeeded.
To the point where they equate being “burdened” with a child as life-ruining, and having choice to undo that as essential to women’s freedom.
Never once do they think that maybe if having a kid screws up a woman’s life that means she never had freedom in the first place.
That’s weird because me and your mom were having a chat in bed last night and she was saying she actually regretted it after seeing how her son felt about women
I’m glad my mother decided not to abort me. I prefer existence to non-existence.
Have you tried non-existence though? I might try it depending on how bad things get here.
I would miss you too much. @seahorse@midwest.social
that’s actually a fair point :)
If you never existed, you wouldn’t know the difference.

All I’m saying is that I’m glad that someone else doesn’t have the power to end my existence without my consent.
Assuming you live in the US, have you observed the gun laws lately?
You obviously don’t live in a country that the United States drone strikes on a regular basis. Shouldn’t you be more concerned about that?
Bullshit
