I Would Get an Abortion if I Got Pregnant...

I am 20 and as far as my career is going, I am at the top of my game. I love my job and career, as stressful as it is. I would never do anything to mess that up. That includes pregnancy.

I Would Get an Abortion if I Got Pregnant...
With my grown up job, I pay my own bills every month. And it shocks me that women do the same that I do on less. I could financially support a child if I needed to but I dont want to. I wouldn't have an abortion because I am not financially able to support the baby. I would "selfishly" choose abortion for this simple, non-politically correct reason, me and only me. I would selfishly choose abortion for the reason that I can continue on the path I have planned. One filled with spontaneous adventures, a career, and marriage. But probably not in that order.

And to be even more non-politically correct, it wouldn't be a hard decision. I would start crying uncontrollably and then once I am able to think and speak coherently, I am calling Planned Parenthood.

I am already on birth control for my migraines and anxiety but it is by no means a heavy duty birth control. If I started having sex, I would take a heavy duty birth control. Along with the heavy duty birth control, I would take the morning after pill and be sure to use a condom. So good luck getting me pregnant. But birth control fails and condoms break. So if I am being honest, yes if I got pregnant, I would choose abortion. It would hardly be a discussion.

Also, I wouldn't sleep with someone who is pro-life. I would only sleep with someone who doesn't want kids either. This is why having similar opinions politics matters to me.

And if there is some law that wants to make me sympathetic to the fetus, two can play at that game. Like that stupid Texas bill that would make the mother of the fetus give the fetus a funeral. Thats cool I can do a funeral. On the one condition that I get to wear the sexiest black dress I can find. And since I have a minor obsession with dark lipstick, I will be wearing dark lipstick as well. I am thinking this look?

Am I evil? Yes. Yes, I am.

  • It is hilarious looking at all the responses from the weird male class at GaG to your "Take".

    I am going to take a different approach and just plead with you to practice birth control.

    And if you do have to face a decision about abortion, I will humbly ask that you to choose life.

    I am not insensitive to the choices women face every single day, when they are facing an unwanted pregnancy. My sister faced it. But the family came together and we found a way to provide to her child. Many women don't have that support. And as you have witnessed at GaG, many men in our society don't care and go straight to condemnation. The fact is they have not even thought of the role that the man plays in having a child.

    You may think you can find a man who shares your views. The fact is you won't know until you have to tell a man that you are pregnant with his child. Maybe it does not mean much to you. But I think this "Take" is mostly for show.

    If you are ever in that situation and you utter those words to the guy you are with, you might get an answer you did not expect. Because he probably gave it little thought in the beginning. I know I did. If my ex had gotten pregnant with my child, I would have fought tooth and nail to that life. And I would have raised that child alone if I had to. But I did not find out how I felt about children until later in life.

    People change.

    Anyway, yes, this was an excellent "take". I am sorry most guys here were not up to the task to talk to you in a rational calm manner. But most guys at GaG think your assertiveness is a threat to their masculinity. I just hope you are just testing the waters and gauging the reaction. Don't beta male weirdness force you into making a decision you will regret.

    Most guys here can't help it. They think their their maleness is dependent upon whether or not women are submissive to them.

    Anyway. . . thanks for the take.

    • Of course I practice birth control. I am very particular anout who I sleep with, if any. I have connected with a lot of childfree women online and many horror dating stories. Like the guy lying to them and saying he didn't want kids when he (desperately) does.

    • Of course. But I don't think men get "desperate" and lie intentionally. For many of "us", it becomes a realization. It is one thing to talk about not having children. But another thing all together when you are faced with a pregnancy.

  • Personally I wouldn't do it but I have a friend who is just like you. I literally just don't have the heart to do it so I'm celibate. In the matter of the safe abortion thing, being prolife means those having abortions are murderers, I'm not sure if people care about those they consider murderers.

    Anyways make sure to be safe with all those contraceptives you want to use, some of them can have side effects that I don't think you want.

  • Well... yeah...

  • Abortion is killing someone, a future child, a human being. How can you live with the idea you've killed your future child? (if that really happens).

    • I dont want kids. Its not a child, it has potential to be one though

    • But, after a few days, it's already become a human being.. I've seen a video of it. That's why abortion accused as murderer.

    • I wouldn't wait a few days for an abortion. Also it doesn't have a brain after a few days. If it can't function without a brain, its not a baby.

  • Holy Crap! You are so crazy and backwards.

    • Thats nice dear.

  • Hot outfit. Sadly this isn't you.

    • Nope that is courtesy of google.

  • It clearly is easy for u being that your mind is set no and if or buts but honestly if you doing all that and still get pregnant you are meant to have that baby in my opinion
    I'm pro choice i support abortion for certain circumstances if you get pregnant and u have your life together as much as you claim your just having a abortion because your selfish and that's fucked up just get ur tube tied or burned and save some eggs just in case you grow out that selfish mindset and want kids

    • Good thing I don't believe in God. So if a couple keeps having miscarriages, are they just not meant to be parents? That is not what being pro-choice means. Dude, if it was possible my tubes would already be tied. I wish I could get my tubes tied. No doctor would do the procedure on the 20 year old. I know people well into their fifties who dont have or want kids. Betty white never had or even wanted kids. So no, it is not a phase.

    • Dude I'm atheist I never mentioned god and if a couple keeps having miscarriages they are meant to adopt and save a kids life And if u look hard enough u can find a dr that'll do it

    • Just the line, "meant to have a baby is whatever happens." made me think of several bible thumpers. I am not going to give up. I will find a doctor to do the procedure.

  • I don't agree with abortion.. But it's best if some people don't have kids.. Otherwise they would end up in the garbage, toilet, or dead.. LOL..

  • What is the point of this mytake exactly?

    You have a lot of growing up to do.

    • I just felt like writing it.

    • I feel like you need friends lol

    • No I actually went out to breakfast with coworkers the day I wrote this. I can just type fast on my ipad.

  • It's good that you stick to your plans and won't let anyone bully you into something else. People should be glad there might one day be one less orphan in the world because of you.

  • Not evil, just practical. Did you decide on your dream holiday, yet?

    • Not yet. I would love to go to New York though.

    • Good choice. I've been there twice.

    • As a new Englander I am required to say that new York is a terrible place full of crime and people who hate everyone that is not a new yorker

  • At 20 I understand but I've met a few women who did a 180 when they got knocked up. They had the kid and just put it up for adoption. Might be a difference of opinion if I was the father of the kid. At my age I'd say I am ready to have one and could care less if the mom moved on after it's birth.

  • I read this take in reverse order. Still makes sense. It's ok to be evil. Some time we have to compromise other's lives to save ours. Also do share your world tour experience with us. Stay in touch :)

  • Nothing wrong with that as long as you're sure. You sound sure of yourself. Good for you! Wouldn't wear that dress to a funeral though. Priest will fall over into the hole and that always awkward.

  • I got my ex pregnant and I convinced her to have an abortion as she was still young. I believe bringing a child to this tough world should be a carefully made decision. And a desired one too. And the parents should be suitable for that. but just popping kids and then be a single mom who end up giving the kid up like in Kelly Rowland case is not the best thing to do

    • SO what you are saying is not murdering you child and giving him/her to a loving family is not the best thing to do... umm...

    • @sean1234 And you think giving up your child to total strangers who might not be very loving after all is the best way to? Hmm smart enough?

    • @sean1234 you better be starting reading books buddy...

    • Disagree with you here dude. Promoting murder isn't excellent.

    • @lord_chilled At the moment of legal abortion there's no baby, no child. Just a pea or bean sized blob of cells without conscience or ability to feel. No murder thus.

    • Yes it is. What you call a "pea" or a "bean" is in fact, very alive and growing. It is called a zygote and pro choice devils are dehumanizing it by calling it words such as the ones you described. When you abort a zygote, you are ending what could have been a person, a child, a man/woman, husband/father/wife/mother. You are ending a LIFE before it had any CHOICE in the matter. Its not okay to terminate a person who has been given life, just because they aren't able to say NO yet, wether thats an infant, or a zygote.

  • Abortion debate is like a debate between those who prefer ketchup and those who prefer mayonnaise

  • That's great. Keep it up!👍

  • I'm pro-choice, but I wouldn't date a girl whow would have an abortion (other than medical reasons)

    I've actually never been with/ know a girl who would have an abortion. I guess my circles are different.

    But hey do you. Who am I to judge. #Respect

    • " I'm pro-choice, but I wouldn't date a girl whow would have an abortion (other than medical reasons)" You're not pro choice, you are "whatever-benefits-my-opinion-more" person.

    • @lyannamormont NO, I just wouldn't date a girl who would have one, nor would I judge others or prevent them from having one. It's like I support people's right to smoke , but that doesn't mean I'm going to smoke or date a girl who smokes. So try again...

    • @lyannamormont Pro-choice doesn't mean pro-abortion. It means we think everyone should make their own choice. It doesn't mean that we agree with that choice or we would do the same for ourselves. I might be okay with weed being legal, but it doesn't mean I would smoke it or I would like to date someone who smokes it.

  • Another woman destroyed by career obsession. Material wealth is your god.

    • I always wanted a good career I enjoy. I love my job so much, I look forward to going into work. Sorry you dont feel the same about your job.

    • You don't enjoy your career. There are things you'd rather be doing that but you tell yourself you love it to ease the pain of servitude.

    • No, I do love it. You could say the same thing about parenthood.
