Should men have any say in abortion at all?
Advertisements [?]
My point is that when men can get pregnant and spend nine months growing a baby in their bodies, then they can have a say in laws governing these matters. I really think it's time for women to write to their representatives stating that the men really need to butt out on women's reproductive medical rights.

Even in the repressive Middle Ages, when the Catholic Church meddled in everyone's private affairs, men stayed far away from women's decisions about their reproduction. These matters were handled by mid-wives and female relatives without any interference from the men, not even the Pope.

With this historic overturning of Roe vs. Wade, and yes, that is what it is. This is what they are working on. The partial birth abortion debate is only the first step. It's time to go to battle again ladies and this time we need to get legislation passed that keeps men from making decisions on matters that only concern women.
