The crowning jewel of Birthist Abortionite euphemisms consisting of two positive terms for the philosophy and action of killing the most helpless and innocent of human beings. Frequently used as a mantra by its mindless devotees, the term neatly evades the fact that the only thing at issue is the nature of the choice and implicitly legitimizes the choice before any discussion can even begin. Immensely popular among necropimps for its effectiveness against the unconverted.
A belief that pregnant women should have free, or relatively free, access to abortion. There is a range of beliefs among people who consider themselves pro-choice: some would allow the woman to have an abortion for any reason up to the moment of birth. Others would restrict access to abortion under various conditions. Common reasons held by some pro-choice advocates include a pregnancy in its later stages when the fetus is sentient, abortions for sex selection, and/or cases where the fetus is minimally genetically defective There is no consensus on the meaning of the term, although many people hold firmly to their own definition as the only correct one.
advocating a woman's right to control her own body (especially her right to an induced abortion)
A belief that women should be given free access to abortions if she wishes to terminate a pregnancy. People who consider themselves "pro-choice" take many positions. Some believe that a woman should have free access to abortions up until fetal viability; others say that a woman should be able to choose to have an abortion later in pregnancy.
The belief that women have the right to choose abortion.
A deceptive term that disguises a preference for destroying preborn babies by acts of abortion.
holding the belief that a woman has an inalienable right to decide what goes on in her own uterus. See sane, rational. Contrast Pro-Life. (The views expressed here happen to be those of BAE, principal of Zeus Productions.)
supporting the right of a woman to have an abortion
Pro-choice describes the political and ethical view that a woman should have total control over her fertility and pregnancy. This entails the guarantee of reproductive rights, which includes access to sexual education; access to safe and legal abortion, contraception, and fertility treatments; and legal protection from forced abortion. Individuals and organizations who support these positions make up the pro-choice movement.
