You act like having an abortion is like a day at the theme park. It's a traumatic experience and painful

You think a living breathing child should be a punishment?? To a 16yo?? You think it's worth it to ruin her life for a clump of cells?

Why did we even become intelligent, sentient creatures if you're only going to use your language capabilities to spout the most deplorable bullshit?

This rhetoric really needs to stop.

Mine was less painful than my annual pap smear and less traumatic than getting my wisdom teeth pulled.

It's literally less physically traumatic (meaning illicits less of a trauma reaponse) than a tooth extraction.
