What about women who are being abused? Many women are sexually and physically abused by their partners/spouses. If a woman was to become pregnant by this man, should she have to tell him and face more physical/emotional abuse from the man? Definitely not. That's the problem with that legislation--it's very finite. I read somewhere (not remembering where, sorry) that if this ever became law and a woman needed to get an abortion in the instance stated above, it could take months in the courts, making the woman suffer through an unwanted pregnancy and become emotionally scarred herself as well as make the fetus too far developed for an abortion, thus making abortions practically non-existant. I think that's crappy. When men have a uterus and have to suffer through 9 months of pregnancy with an unwanted child, then maybe they can try to make laws about women's bodies. Until then, I wish people would stop judging people so horribly for getting them. I personally think abortion as birth control is pretty crappy, but when you have a president and other legislators who don't want to teach about birth control, then you have unwanted pregnancies.
(Sorry, I'm rambling, it's been a long morning).
