You believe that individuals should have the autonomy to make decisions about their own reproductive health and bodily integrity.
The "Pro-Choice" political ideology is a belief system that supports the right of individuals to make decisions about their own bodies, specifically regarding reproductive health and abortion. This ideology asserts that decisions about pregnancy, including the choice to terminate it, should be left to the individual, typically the woman, rather than being dictated by the government or any other external entity. Pro-Choice advocates argue for the legal right to access safe and legal abortion, as well as comprehensive sexual education and access to contraception.

How do you think reproductive rights could affect relationships and family dynamics?
@9KBPQM78mos8MO
If teenagers are forced to keep their baby even when they're not ready, it could cause some serious feuding between the families.
Teenagers are children. They shouldn't be forced to carry a child, ever. They have the ability to make truly informed decisions. Parents should not make that decision for them.
@Patriot-#1776Constitution2mos2MO
The baby is a human being, from conception. Your feelings, your personal grief, your age, the circumstance from whence he was conceived, has nothing to do with it whatsoever. I don't care how hard it is for you to carry the child, that doesn't give you an excuse to kill him. You have a moral obligation to him as his mother and as a fellow human being.
@9KCXSKX8mos8MO
I agree because some teenagers may still be in school and because they now have a baby that have to drop out of school to care for the baby which may prevent them from graduating.
@Patriot-#1776Constitution2mos2MO
That's the risk teenagers take through pre-marital relations. Actions have consequences.
@Patriot-#1776Constitution2mos2MO
So you're saying it's appropriate to bloody KILL PEOPLE to avoid FAMILY FEUDS? What type of psychopathic position is that?
@9KBQ3KQ8mos8MO
I feel everyone has the right to an abortion no one should make the rules of someones body
@Patriot-#1776Constitution2mos2MO
Ok then stop tyrannising over the bodies of unborn children by deciding to kill them. Bodily autonomy, am I right
@9KC43H9Republican8mos8MO
Although political views affect families, as individuals we should work towards respecting everyone's opinions even if that consists of people you are in a relationship with.
@9KBQWR88mos8MO
There is a difference between killing, and murder. Killing in cold blood is murder. So unless there is a genuine threat to the mother or the child, abortion should not happen.
@ISIDEWITH9mos9MO
What are the implications of denying people the right to make their own reproductive choices, in your view?
@9J6S6HM9mos9MO
You save the lives of babies. Unless in cases of tape and incest you shouldn’t be allowed to get an abortion
@9J6YSJZ9mos9MO
they aren’t babies yet they’re clusters of cells. if they are born they will live an awful life either with a mother who didn’t want them or in a terrible foster home.
@9J8Z6XV9mos9MO
You cannot control the rights to someone elses body. It is not affecting, therefore if it is not your body it is not your choice. It does not matter the cirumstances.
@9J6YT3Q9mos9MO
They see a fetus as a living being. However, if one is unwilling to give birth for any reason. It can negatively affect the baby's development as an individual, such as familial problems. It also violates someone's right to make a choice for themselves. The choice may lead to one less ruined childhood.
@9J6YWT39mos9MO
I believe that every child should be born into a family that can take care of them and wants them, rather than being born into an abusive family or one which cannot provide for the child.
@9J6S4NR9mos9MO
I think people should be able to choose what they can and can’t do with their bodies. I don’t think the government should be able to tell someone what to do with their body.
@9J6SFHK9mos9MO
They are robbing people of the right to make their own decisions about their own body, they are robbing their free will and of their freedom which is what this whole country was built upon
@9J665KPRepublican9mos9MO
I think people should be denied the choice to have an abortion since they are the ones that chose to put themselves in that situation.
@ISIDEWITH9mos9MO
How does the idea of reproductive choice resonate with you in terms of planning your future?
@9J36NX39mos9MO
Im pro life and against the “transgender movement”
@9J4Z8PZ9mos9MO
Other people's choices that don't directly affect you shouldn't matter. If you don't believe in abortions you don't have to get one, but that doesn't mean someone else shouldn't be able to get one if they want or need it. As for the "transgender movement", it's not a movement, more of an awareness. Transgender people have existed for a very long time, dating before ancient Egypt, we didn't just pop up out of nowhere, we are simply trying to bring awareness and normalize being transgender.
It will determine where I can and can not live; as a woman with PCOS, this directly threatens not only my health but my life and freedom... especially since the right to birth control was also on the precedent of Roe V Wade
@9J3F9RC 9mos9MO
Women who are pregnant will be carrying the baby, and if they do not want it, they should not be forced into having the baby. Outsiders of their lives do not know their situation and therefore cannot judge what they do with their fetus. That fetus inside their body is theirs, and until it has passed a certain time, it shouldn't be classified as a baby.
@9PHZPF84mos4MO
Truth is, it's a human child, it is a baby. All humans should have the right to live, especially the smallest and innocent. Murder is wrong, not debatable. So people use different terms to cover up the actual truth.
Yes, freedom of choice... Does the child in the womb have a choice? Murdering babies is a $$$ moneymaking business $$$ Women have a choice whether or not to have sex. No sex, no baby. Having sex will usually result in pregnancy.
Adoption is the best option.
@9J36QC89mos9MO
I think every woman should have the choice to choose when it comes to reproductive health.
i feel that a person should have the ablility to change their body how ever they so feel
@ISIDEWITH8mos8MO
What parallels do you see between reproductive choice and other civil rights issues?
@9KDL3YR 8mos8MO
Pro-choice is giving women the right to make decisions with their own body. We don't require vaccines to prevent diseases that endanger the lives of others, but we force women to have a child when they don't feel at all prepared and, in addition, force a child to be born into a potentially unstable or dangerous situation??
@9KL5LDGRepublican7mos7MO
Human life should not have to be taken just because someone doesn't want to have a baby, especially if they are far into pregnancy.
@9KL4DVZ7mos7MO
It’s not just their body. And there are programs to help them learn to be a parent, or adoption for those who don’t want to
@9KDMK3X8mos8MO
you should be able to be in control of your own body and when you want to have a kid
@9KDMMT38mos8MO
i think pro choice should be pro choice if its in a act of danger, like rape then obviously you should get an abortion. Also if you are not able to care for the child, but otherwise, i think you should keep the baby.
@9KDM6ZC8mos8MO
I think pro-choice is there choice, if you are having sex with a condom and birth control, and somehow still get pregnant, you took all protective measures and still got pregnant, I think it should be the mothers choice on whether to keep the kid or not.
@ISIDEWITH9mos9MO
Imagine how future generations might view the reproductive rights debates of today; what do you think they would say?
@9JC6KZL9mos9MO
That all humans should have choice in their own bodies
@9JC6NWP9mos9MO
I think they would agree with being Pro-Choice. People who aren't Pro-Choice, it's more of the older generations. It's the women's choice to choose what she wants to do with her body, other people's opinions shouldn't have an effect on that.
@9JC6JL7 9mos9MO
Those children may grow up in fear, not having bodily autonomy. Women will feel inferior, and men may think that women should be controlled.
@9JC6GFN9mos9MO
that you should have a choice as well in the matter
@ISIDEWITH9mos9MO
How do you think popular culture and media representation affect public opinion on reproductive rights?
@9J36K3T9mos9MO
Pro lifers are pushing their opinions way too much on the public
@Patriot-#1776Constitution2mos2MO
We're sorry we hurt your feelings – we didn't realise speaking about against murder would bother you this much. We Pro-Lifers will have to stop, because compared to your feelings and your emotions, to industrialised extermination of tens of millions of innocent unborn children annually is utterly insignificant. Thanks for the reminder, we forgot you're the centre of the universe. We'll try to remember that next time
@9J36H9L9mos9MO
yes, media is all we see so sometimes we get influenced by the public
@9J675PSIndependent9mos9MO
the news often put their own opinion on their political views and often influence the public with wrong information. For example, CNN.
@9J36DH29mos9MO
I believe that birth/abortion is a deeply personal, and circumstantial issue that should never be resolved through propaganda or coercion (i.e., media representation/popular culture). Reproductive rights should be private, like any other health care matters. Just as all of the personal responsibility (risks, costs, care/support) for that birth will be borne by the individual, so, too, should the reproductive decision itself.
