Many women in lower classes cannot afford the healthcare that would have warned them about it. And many can't afford contraceptives. And to say "no one is forcing you to get pregnant" is utter bullshit. Perhaps you're one of those "good" men that don't do such things, but you're certainly glossing over all the situations where women in this country do not have control over their own bodies whether they are in a relationship or not. Welcome to what's called patriarchy, interlocking oppressions and our rape culture. Pick up a book on intersectionality feminist theory and educate yourself. Stop being a rape-apologist. And quit glorifying male privilege, it won't do you any favours in life.
to the max!

Why is a 12 year old getting pregnant? Traffic doesn't care if jaywalkers are 12 or 30.

Because she was raped; sex w/ 12 year olds, "consensual" or not, is pretty much illegal everywhere.

Like when Romney insisted a mother of four not have an abortion to save her life?

I hear ya, but factually lacking policies are only plausible on a factually flawed basis.

first, I should clarify that these are the opinions of some, not all "Republicans,"

It is demonstrably the opinion of Republican federal lawmakers, which is what counts.

How about, if you have those conditions, don't get pregnant!

None of those myths would justify abortion, even if they were real.

Keep her legs together then. Really, the problems of a would-be child-killer are of nil concern *NM*

How many abortions have you caused women to have, that you are so blind to the crap here?

how many kids have you adopted, in order to preserve the life you claim to save?

I guess... I'm confused about something. WHY do they all keep talking about this?

The only plausible explanation is "because they believe it."

Eh, I don't know. I feel like someone is telling them there is political capital to be made.

Appealing to the base in the general election is usually a zero sum game.
