No sweetie, it actually happened. And it’s entirely irrelevant. Yes, I have no video of it, so if you don’t believe it happened, go right ahead. I think I’l go call some more GOPs and complain about my rights being trampled on and get yelled at. Fun stuff.

I admit it’s possible that it happened. The story itself is not implausible; your details are what ring false to me.

Basic human biology? “When a man and a woman love each other very much, they engage in a special kind of hug…?”

Never got that talk growing up?

And I CAN turn the “tapatalk” feature off. However, I think I may keep it on any other time I respond to you, sunshine. Just to show you how much I love you.

Okay, D’Anconia, here it goes:

Your parents, in addition to being first cousins, and possessing a combined total of 38 teeth, also possess what grown-ups call, “Pee-Pees.”

A girl’s pee-pee is like a flower. Although, your mother’s is more like some cold cuts left out overnight in a swamp.

The boy’s pee-pee is like a taquito. And when a boy and a girl love each other very much, or can’t manage to find anyone better, they ram their pee-pees together, and the daddy squeezes out his taquito sauce into the swampy cold cuts.

Then, through the magic of nature, the lady’s pee-pee gets swole and vomits out a baby.

Sometimes that baby is shitty, and no one likes it, like you. Other times, the baby is a useful member of society. But every once in a while, a doctor roto-rooters out the lady’s cold cuts, and they drain out some baby salsa.

In Jesus’ name, amen.

An abortion is solely and completely a woman’s choice, in all circumstances. No man is involved.

Sometimes, a woman will ask her husband’s advice. (Or her father, or brother.) A man might be involved if the woman wants him involved.

Her priest of minister can be involved, if that’s what she wants.

It’s all part of her choice.

You didn’t teach me anything.

What’s next? People who wrongly claim that things are illegal have simply made a typo?

Your friend spamforbrains said a man was involved in every abortion. Which is it?

If you’ll look at the Lancet study I posted, approximately 70% of abortions are requested by married couples. One can only wonder why the man didn’t get a vasectomy if the couple had decided they had enough children already.

I quoted the full post that you so carefully cut off so as to make your pathetic nitpick.

Are you saying that some abortions involve virgins?

“Every single abortion had a man involved.”

“Sometimes, a woman will ask her husband’s advice.”

Both statements can’t be true.

“Every” precludes “sometimes”.

Post 110 by **Lobohan** explains how a man is involved in every abortion.

Please. Enlighten us. How many abortions, in your opinion, have no man involved in any way, at any stage - you know, from conception to abortion?
