She will send them to you via UPS. Rushed delivery!!!  
😃  
Also, is she asking a question? Is there some veiled threat in there? Will she ship _herself to you_ via UPS and spit in your eye? The possibilities are endless!

Got the midol yet twit?  
You and the other one are too dumb to realize what I meant by that statement. It’s not my fault you weren’t in line when the brains got handed out.

Please, tell me again how I’m on my period. That one is my favorite!

Right, cause fascists are just famous for trusting the judgment of the individual and respecting individual liberty and privacy and not imposing the will of the government anymore than necessary.

My culturally conditioned root-for-the-underdog reflex is making me want to support **classyladyhp**. I think I have to go kill myself now.

You do know that only selfish auld bitches get a period, right? God-fearing morally upright women don’t have periods, because they are either pregnant all the time (adding more ‘happiness’ to the world) or they’re breastfeeding their precious zygotes.

Or something like that. 😃

**CLHP** any thoughts about how risky a pregnancy needs to be before abortion is justifiable?

I’d really appreciate hearing your thoughts on this issue.

I have asked nicely, clarified the question and asked again.

Please answer, preferably with more than a sentence. Feel free to expand on your reasoning and give cites for evidence supporting your view if you wish.

Just how _ **do** _ we know that **classyladyhp** is female? Just because they say they are? I’m inclining more and more to the idea that this poster actually IS a teenage male, doing this trollery for fun, in spite of their claims to be female.

One clue is that a person who claims to have two university degrees uses the English language so poorly. With the kind of education they claim their insults should certainly be more creative.

Another clue is that when I once before referred to classy with a gender-neutral term, they went ballistic. Seems I hit a raw nerve, and classy was afraid of discovery.

And finally, classy never has, to my knowledge, referred to family. No spouse, no kids, and so on. Sounds to me like someone who isn’t old enough to have them. Or, alternately, is so unpleasant IRL that nobody will have them.

Somewhere, way back in the murky depths of this thread, I seem to recall him/her mentioning a previous pregnancy, but there is no fucking way in hell I’m going to trawl back to find the post.

If anybody else wants to have at it…knock yerself out. 😛

She claimed to have two university degrees? I must have not been able to perceive that post since the concept of her with higher education is so utterly alien, the way some people think Incas couldn’t see Spanish galleons.

You know what? This thread has convinced me that I’m not pro-choice. I really am pro-abortion. All I need to do is think of a way to make a profit and great commercial.

How about, “Birth control is for pansies. Walk on the wild side, then get an abortion at We Hate Babies abortion clinic. We have great waiting rooms with large screen TVs and message chairs. Our kind and friendly staff will make you feel at home! Speaking of which, our mafia-trained body guards, will give you the escort security you expect from a high class clinic. Have your first abortion here and your next one is half price. Discounts for recruiting your friends are also available. Don’t wait. Or wait. We don’t care!”

Why on earth should I watch what I say to you? Are you going to hunt me down? Are you going to tell on me? What possible consequence could there be to my insulting you? You are nothing to me or anyone else in this thread. At this point the only reason people are interacting with you is to provoke a response from you–and guess what? It’s working! You are entertaining the hell out of us with your little outbursts and complaints. Now that Trump is out of the running for President, someone has to fill that role.

You are correct. I’m not looking for it either but I remember it and the basic nature of the comment. A very traumatic personal reason for feeling so strongly about this issue.

Speculating about age is pretty pointless. Who cares.

Hi Sherlock, Hercule Poirot, Miss Marple etc.  
You should do something about that paranoid schizophrenia. You really should.  
I’ll send you my university transcripts as well as my various scholarships.  
I’m not male. You are an idiot.  
That is all. I have referred to family but you are too lazy to look up my posts. I have also referred to my pregnancies.
