Actually, currently you (or, more correctly, the woman who is directly affected) DOES have the right to end that life.

Does the guy assume any risk by having sex? Some cash maybe. "Women should have no right to an abortion." "Women shouldn't have sex if they don't want babies." "Fetuses are people too." Men need to shut the fuck up until we have to hold a watermelon in our stomachs for 9 months before passing it out our pissholes.
 
I grew up in South Dakota, the state is filled with morons.

What this world really needs is old white men to quit telling women what to do...
 
The reason that I am pro-choice is that making abortion illegal suppresses women. Even if you put the child up for adoption the woman can not lead a normal life for the 9 months she is pregnant. As much as we try to making parenting the responsibility of both the mother and the father, the mother is more directly responsible for the life of the child. If the woman is more responsible for the child then she deserves the right to choose if she wants to have a child. Therefore I believe abortion should be legal for every woman.

Many pro-abortion people claim that by having sex (with or without protection) you are choosing to have a child. I am claiming the choice to have a child is separate from the choice to have sex. As, such abortion needs to be legal to protect women.
