    Yes.  Because in the first scenario, there is no child born that will be affected by the mom's decision.  In the second, there is a child that will be affected by it.

  • You guys, if you are genuinely offended when someone comments on your size, whether you're a 2 or a 22, speak thefuck up.  Tell them it is none of their business what size you are and to worry about their own lives.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: Unpopular Opinions : I hate it when people say I'd kill to be a size#.  Size numbers are so irrelevant to defning what is healthy or not healthy.  A size 10 on one person could look like a size 16 on another and a size 6 on another.

    I don't see how my opinion that I'd like to be a size 10 affects you? I know what a size 10 would look like on me cause I once was one. Quite frankly, what I said has nothing to do with wanting to be healthy, its entirely vanity.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: Unpopular Opinions : D- I tell you this is the only argument my H and I have. We have learned to agree to disagree. His take on it is they both decided to have sex, you know what the consequences may be (protected or not), but men should have a decision process, whether it be abortion, adoption, or raising it. I have a problem with this in a few levels. <strong>One I'm forced to have a kid,</strong> and my not want to, I take all the risk. And he can just walk away, and there are plenty of men out there that owe back child support. And when a child is concieved, it may not be on the best of terms (married, TTC), but a one night stand, then what...I really dont know where you go from there.

    Okay.. but to say a size 10 isn't fat as a blanket statement is insensitive IMO.  Based on your response, I'm guessing you mean a size 10 is not fat on your body frame, which is totally cool.  But to say you'd kill to be a size 10 tells any girl who's a size 10 and unhappy with her body that she shouldn't be unhappy about it.

    But men don't have to carry the child, which is why I don't think they should have a say in whether a woman can get an abortion or not.  And again, abortion leaves neither person with a child.  Once there's a child born, both people should be responsible until they come to an agreement.  I DO think if the man tells the woman that he wants her to have an abortion, and she has the baby and thinks he's going to be supportive in any way then she's an idiot.  But you are never going to make me think that a man should be able to force a woman to have an abortion or not have one.

    Just clarifying then.. so you're okay with him signing off his rights as soon as he finds out she's pregnant then? Since that still leaves room/time for her to decide whether or not she wants to do it w/o his support?

    At the same time though, a size 10 girl saying she feels fat could be offensive to a larger girl. It goes both ways. If you aren't overly sensitive it shouldn't bother you either way. I'd like to be a size 10 but someone who is already that way is more than entitled to feel however she wants, I just personally don't think its fat.

    [QUOTE]I think pro choice all the way around would be giving the man the same option to abort the fetus as the woman has. I don't consider a man signing his rights away because he didn't want a child to be equivalent to the right to choose abortion.
    Posted by kodakitty[/QUOTE]

    How's that pro-choice all the way around?  If the woman wants to keep the baby, the man declaring that she must have an abortion is hardly giving her a choice.

    No, I'm saying any people who are a size ten in my opinion aren't fat. I'm basically saying I think size 10 looks good though, take is a fucking complement and get over it. Whether size 10 hates her body or not, its not like I'm sying size 10ers look like shiit. I said they look good. To twist it to mean I'm somehow saying something negative is a stretch. Again, it works both ways.

    I just can't understand that then I guess. I don't get why the father's fate as a father (both emotionally and/or financially) rests in the choice of the mother.
  • To be fair, a size 10 would look a hell of a lot different on a 5'1 frame than a 5'11 frame. 

    But again, it's just a number and I couldn't give less a shiit about the numbers.  I have clothes in my closets ranging from a 4 to a 12, so yeah, none of it means jackshit to me.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: Unpopular Opinions : At the same time though, a size 10 girl saying she feels fat could be offensive to a larger girl. It goes both ways. If you aren't overly sensitive it shouldn't bother you either way. I'd like to be a size 10 but someone who is already that way is more than entitled to feel however she wants, I just personally don't think its fat.

    This. I hate when people pinch that imaginary inch of fat on their waist on go "UGH I just feel so fat and disgusting today" and then they look at me. It just feels like they're being bitchy towards me when they do it that way.

    And I agree that the "go eat cake" people need to sod off. I'm sick of people telling me that I should eat less or go eat a salad or whatever. If I ate less than I do now, I'd be anorexic. The reason I'm stuck at this weight is because I physically can't eat enough to get over that 'starvation mode' limit. And if I exercise ("go take a run, go to the gym, exercise makes it all better) it gets worse. I just feel so weak I can't move.

    I'm a big advocate that people should try to be happy in their own skin, whatever their size. Its what I've always taught the kids I've worked with. I can't manage to get that mentality for myself because so many people think they know my body better than me and its tiring.
  • I know I haven't been on in awhile but I thought I'd rant too!
    I hate people that don't spay/neuter/vaccinate pets.
    I really hate people that don't vaccinate kids.
    People that expect me to be docile and demur because I have a vagina.
    Men who call me "sweetie" or "dear" who are NOT my fiance because I have female genetalia.
    People who post how awesome their life is on facebook that I fully expect they poop out rainbows, unicorns, and skittles.
    People who bit*h nonstop on facebook.
    When people call me 400 times just to say, "what are you doing?"
    People in nursing school who bitch about feces and vomit...you are a nurse...enough said.
    People who take their sick kids to school...hey thanks for bring bronchitis my way a-hole.
    People who let their kids do whatever the eff they want and say, "kids....they do the darndest things, eh?" Yeah when they are jerks, yes...yes they do.
    I know this isn't "controversial" so to speak, but irritating.
