This does not answer my question. No options were taken from her. She did not go to the hospital because no one would be able to take care of the kids. What an amazing argument to then force an unethical miscarriage.
And things like “I don’t know how old the fetus was” is also on her. a) maybe don’t fuck like a bunny with so many people; b) absence of period minus roughly 4 weeks. That’s the min and max age of the fetus.
This is such a bad take. I guess I must be 3 years pregnant /s. You have no idea what it is like to be a woman and living in poverty, let alone one that is also a mother and cannot afford another kid. Slut-shaming is misogynistic as well, women are not mechanical clocks and we do not freak out over every missed period. Please reflect on this. The problem is capitalism once again, but you care more about a woman and a miscarriage instead of why she was in this predicament in the first place.
Come on, don’t put words into my mouth. I never did any slut-shaming. You can go fuck all you want, but please do not spread any diseases and do not get pregnant if you can’t afford a kid in the first place. Unfortunately it is not documented why she was getting pregnant. If she was raped? Hell get rid of that fetus. If she was too lazy to use protection? If you do abortion then, it is clearly unethical, no matter what.
Additionally, she clearly knew she was pregnant. So then you clearly know the rough min/max age of the fetus. This has nothing to do with just missing a period every now any then. So how did she know she was pregnant?
This is the weird slut-shaming I was referring to.
Women cannot control whether they get pregnant or not. No birth control is 100% effective. Even the high percentages you see are 'perfect use' and mean for every 100 women, 10 women actually get pregnant with 'typical use' while using their birth control (Source). The higher effective ones are things like the IUD and arm implant, devices that are expensive and come with their own risks but are also not 100% effective; although they're the closest you can get. Women have all sorts of reasons for picking their chosen birth control, some cannot handle hormones at all. Even I've been wrecked by various birth controls. You are effectively saying sex is only for procreation and nothing else.
There is no reason to judge a woman's choice to abort as ethical or unethical. None. As in, it is offensive you are suggesting this. Shit happens. Most abortions are not due to rape and even knowing this, it does not fucking matter. The fact you assume she is lazy is atrocious. It isn't documented why she was pregnant because it's none of your business!
And no, knowing she was pregnant does not help determine how far along she is unless she had sex and then never had sex again after that and then caught on to her missed period (assuming she has regular periods, I personally do not even before I started birth control). C'mon, please web search this because women are not identical birthing machines.
Abortions aren't unethical.
You’re a hypocrite if you support abortion after rape but not otherwise.
You don’t understand anything about women and pregnancy if you think it’s that easy to determine how far along one is in pregnancy.
The cinnamon she ingested had no part in the miscarriage.
Should she had abandon her kids to get to the hospital instead?
Not all women have regular periods.
You’re clearly misinformed on this topic on several levels. Best to sit this one out with your pearl clutching.
Who's ethics? Yours?
The fetus was incapable of knowing it was gone. It rejoined the void that it came from. Your ethics are rejected.
Alright everyone. Form a line. Make sure to ask zr0 for permission before you do any fucking.
