no no, sorry for that. its been mentioned a couple times in this thread and ive also know girls who have had several, all for what you may call 'birth control' reasons. freaks me out. like some horror movie shit. i know girls who have had just one and are still haunted by it years later. its depressing when guys think its an easy answer to their 'problem'. ive never found myself in that situation, so i cant speak from personal experience, which is why i tend to avoid the topic.
and all the 'pile of goo' or whatever, viewpoints are bothersome too. guys dont really get what its like to be a woman and what it feels like to have the responsibility of getting pregnant. i cant really explain it. ive never been pregnant, but every girl knows that it could happen even with as much birth control possible. its a haunting and scary feeling to any responsible girl. that pile of goo is inside us and a part of us and has the potential to grow and be sustained inside of us. thats some crazy shit. for some people its easy to detach from that and think of it as nothing but a bunch of cells, but i think even girls who do detach will always have it in the back of their mind.
to convince any girl that its an easy option is harmful. if a girl is going to have an abortion she needs to be tuned in and ready to deal with it, no matter what her reasons for having one. i bet bigboybanshee can attest to that. even women who have them for reasons of rape, etc, are making a very hard decision.
