    But hey, she’s vegan! No killing animals, but babies are fair game!

    I’m pro-choice but if you do it recreationally you’re a shit person in my book.

      “Recreational abortions” is just forced brother propaganda, and it amazes me how many are gullible enough to think that people would go through such a traumatic and “shameful” experience (because of people who say ignorant shit like this) for recreational purposes.

      Recreational abortions dont exist. There may be people with multiple abortions, but its not a situation women put themselves in. It’s not a fun day no matter the procedure.

      Consider mental health, rape, stupidity, not everyone is you with your thought process. You may actually be above average intelligence, and if you are consider how scary that is. How many people don’t have the cause and effect reasoning you do. We can’t judge people with abortions if we can’t judge people with credit card debt.

        Some people just don’t bother with protection. I personally know someone who is like that. It’s baffling

      early pregnancies are tiny dots of flesh, smaller than getting a mole removed or picking your nose. There’s no need to romanticise disposing of it, it’s barely beyond the stage of discarding a used condom.

      Where is it implied that she does it recreationally? She may have done it multiple times but never for fun.

      It could also be argued that she means “miscarriages” if her body is sending the souls of unborn children back to God.

          I think they hold issue with you perpetrating a myth that people have abortions for fun or fashion, which is usually a mindset that comes with a ton of other regressive beliefs.

          Not op, but it’s likely because recreational abortions are as much a thing as recreational brick eating or something. Yet you’re implying they are a thing, for some reason.

      You don’t deserve downvotes for this. You recognize her choice is hers to make, and that’s the important part.

      (She probably said it for comedy but someone “having recreational abortions” for real would probably be a shit person.)

        Have you EVER talked to ANYBODY who really went for a recreational abortion? This is a myth and repeating this myth under a post that uses a hyperbole to make a joke / bring a point across is plain stupid. That’s why the person you answered to got rightfully downvoted.

          I agree with you too, that’s why I said someone actually doing that would likely be a shitty person. This lady is very likely not having “recreational abortions”. They do deserve credit for at least recognizing a woman has a right to make that choice .
