Do you think it is morally acceptable to force a rape victims, minors included, to carry the rapists fetus to term?

[Agape93]

There is a right answer here.

No, that's immoral and cruel

Yes, I love retraumatizing rape victims

It’s these types of situations that make me try not to take one side or the other. My opinion has nothing to do with religion. But in this situation I believe that an abortion is justified. But if someone is careless and becomes pregnant because they didn’t take appropriate actions to prevent it then I don’t agree with an abortion. HOWEVER, that’s just MY PERSONAL OPINION. I don’t think that the government should be the ones making that decision.
I never answer these types of questions because I prefer to keep my options on sensitive topics private. But In this case I’m supporting the asked because I know how important this topic is to her. Much respect. ❤️

The rape victims were forced to have a child so yes the rapists should carry the child because they need to understand their actions have consequences.

[Agape93]

I don't think you read my question correctly

[Blackcosmo]

Oh I'm so sorry. I think I misunderstood.

[Blackcosmo]

I don't think so because the fetus would endanger the child's life so it's not acceptable.

[Agape93]

You're good, thanks for answering

[Oigit]

I was kidnapped and molested as a kid. So I have a damn good idea of how much damage sexual assault does to someone. The idea of forcing a girl or woman to carry the child of their rapists is only going to increase the damage done. As bad as it sounds I wouldn't be surprised of a rape victim simply decided to kill herself if you told her she has to carry the child.

[HighValue]

No, and the states that ban abortion always make exceptions for those cases so don't lie and pretend they don't. They also make exceptions if it will harm the mother and for incest.

[Agape93]

Several states already have banned it in those cases too. Don't call me a liar when they're literally saying it themselves.

[CloudMassacre]

I don’t care about the morality around abortion, I believe in personal freedom, so I’m pro choice for any reason.

It's violating to force ANY lady to carry a baby when she clearly doesn't want to, let alone one who has been RAPED

[normalice]

How to get hard right people to give a damn about being morally acceptable is the whole game, though. Crack that code and you've fixed the world.

[Jamie05rhs]

In my opinion, I don't think that a rape victim should be forced to have the baby. Unfortunately, that means that the baby dies, which is a tragedy. :(
But I also think that the rapist should die.

[Snakeyes7]

It's a tough choice. I would say yes only if the courts were to find him guilty but those court cases take forever.

[Agape93]

So it's moral to remove the right for a rape victim to control her body, for the second time, to be constantly physically reminded of a horrible crime committed on them? Even as a minor?

Correct me if I misunderstood you here.

[Snakeyes7]

In the case of a minor then yes, it is definitely rape.

Otherwise false accusations will skyrocket in order for a woman to have an abortion because she was reckless with who she had sex with and with her contraceptions.

[Agape93]

Answer the question

[Snakeyes7]

I did. I would say that abortion is fine if it is a minor.

Older than that, then getting that abortion will likely involve the violation of an *actual* constitutional right, due process, because the courts are notorious for taking ages to look at your case. If you can have the courts establish guilt before you give birth to the child then I would be fine with it.

If your "right" potentially violates the rights of others by using it responsibly, it's not a right but a privilege.

[sirderpsalot123]

I'm pro choice for any reason but especially pro choice in that situation.

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

No, that's immoral and cruel

[douride2]

That is just wrong in so many ways.
