   Hello TIM,   
      
    TR> I engaged in an argument of this sort many years ago in here against a   
    TR> few of the `leftie' women who inhabited Fido at the time.   
      
   Yep, I'll bet you did!   
      
    TR> Actually, a woman who gets pregnant has already MADE her choice!   
      
   She may have chosen to get pregnant, or maybe she just had some sex.   
      
    TR> 1. She chose not to take proper precautions to keep herself from   
    TR> getting pregnant. (And no....it isn't all the GUY'S responsibility.   
    TR> The woman is also one of the one's who made the decision to engage in   
    TR> activity that could end in a pregnancy)   
      
   Some times (a man or a woman) has sex, simply to have sex. Because it feels   
   good.   
      
    TR> 2. She chose not to make her male companion take proper precautions   
    TR> prior to sex.   
      
   Precausions are not always available when the heat is on.   
      
    TR> 3. She is at least `half' responsible to do what's necessary to   
    TR> prevent getting pregnant.   
      
   Indeed, it would be best to prevent pregnacy if it's not wanted.   
      
    TR> 4. Women who allow their emotions (heat of the moment) to over-ride   
    TR> ordinary precautions or `common sense', and wind up pregnant should   
    TR> not be allowed to take the life of an unborn child, just because she   
    TR> doesn't have the emotional strength to control her physical passion   
    TR> long enough to take precautions, or insist her sex partner do so.   
      
   Humans (men and women) are sexual animals. They have a lot of sex in their   
   lifetimes and there is no good reason I can think of to control their passion.   
   I think it is OK for men and women to express their passion as long as they   
   aren't hurting anyone.   
      
    TR> After failing to control herself or at least take proper precautions,   
    TR> and winding up pregnant, the woman has already `made' her decision.   
      
   You may be right. Maybe the woman wanted to get pregnant so great. If not then   
   she can make her own decision. She doesn't need your approval.   
      
    TR> Not being intelligent enough to take proper steps to keep herself from   
    TR> getting pregnant, what makes anyone think she has the intelligence to   
    TR> make a decision like ending the life of a human fetus?   
      
   She should make that decision herself, for herself in her situation.
