I keep spending all my money. Give me yours.
@Amandafaye27@aussiegal1o@MartinTweats So once a woman gets pregnant, she should be forced to go through an unwanted pregnancy for a child she also doesn't want.
@NAFO_PDX@MrFlickRocks@LilaGraceRose Agreed. Some people simply receive their bodies as one of the challenges God has placed before them in their lives.
@LilaGraceRose How old were the "children" in question? How long has the clinic been doing surgery? What percentage of detransitioners do so because they're not actually trans? ACTUAL PERCENTAGE, not numbers or "a lot!"
@osgamer74 I wrote a 36-chapter LotR fanfic, starting at age ten, averaging a chapter a month for three years. I was inspired to do so by my love of the Hobbit movie, having read The Hobbit, and my mom reading LotR to a a chapter each night as a bedtime story.
@bearcat_sherman@ForagingForever As long as either party can call the marriage off at any point, sure, arranged marriage. Otherwise what you have is forced marriage.
@KatelynTweeter I cannot carry a child without going off my medication [and it would die while I'm in withdrawal anyway]. If I go off my meds, I have seizures and/or episodes of screaming til I puke blood. Abortion is tragic, but I want to have some control over the loss of a child I wanted.
@LaNativePatriot Childhood gender transition doesn't involve surgery. It involves letting the kid use the name and pronouns they want, and letting them decide how to dress and keep their hair.
@Newnameel Well putting an end to for-profit prisons would help end slavery in the USA. Major overhauls in how companies are allowed treat their employees in other countries would help as well.
And supporting families would help them grow as families.
@Newnameel If you want abortion to end, you need to start supporting programs that help [expecting] parents and families with children, which it sounds like you don't.
@Bentleylasher@Meg_Inwood@Zarish5062 I want to. I desperately want children. But my medication would kill a fetus in the womb and I kinda rely on my medication for things like "not having seizures" and "not breaking down screaming."
@Meg_Inwood@Bentleylasher@Zarish5062 For real. I cannot carry to viability, much less to term. If I got pregnant I'd have an abortion not because I wanted to have an abortion, but because I want whatever control I can have over the loss of a child I wanted.
@aly_sand@AbortionChat So do you like... not want babies and parents to have support, or do just you think they should "earn it themselves" which essentially boils down to the message that poor people shouldn't breed.
