That's not very controversial.  

Hmmm, I'm having a tough time coming up with controversial stuff.  
Think the most controversial thing here is Kitler's perversion.  

I think abortion should only be allowed in certain circumstances.  

aww thanks, thats so sweet.  

i'm pro life and think abortion is murder.   i will never understand how anyone can view a baby as not living just because the life is new and early.  give the kid up for adoption but don't end its life.  

that said if we (america) were to stop allowing abortions the other pro lifers need to stop also trying to abolish contraceptive and education with abortion.  naughtiness is a choice and your (probably religious) views need not apply.  i just believe life is the greatest thing in the world and should be preserved but that with choice also comes concequnce.

lastly, i think abortion is okay in cases of rape.  i can't be okay with a policy that at any level incentivises violence against women.  being raped is not a choice and a women shouldn't have to suffer the concequences of that after suffering the rape itself.

prostitution should be a legal career choice.  



so long as the person chooses the career and isn't enslaved into it it should be legal.  when i was in high school i took and interview to be a stripper.  unfortunately, i have a bad shoulder (~25% loss in range of motion) and couldn't do the movements they expected me to perform.   ...but i liked being objectified.

I agree!  


My abortion opinion is pretty controversial.  

A lot of people argue two things
1.) Women should get control of their bodies.  
I understand this opinion, but I don't agree with it, in this context.  That woman (in most circumstances) had control of her body, and made a choice that resulted in something she didn't want.  If someone made some weird choice that ended up causing them to be attached to another person, and said hey I want a surgery to remove this other person from my shoulder.  And the doctor says, well they won't survive the surgery.  Who gets the right to control their body?  Why doesn't the fetus get any right?  

2.)  "Science has defined when life started"
I think this is a weird thing to look at.  It's one that many could argue about, because there's no objective point.  Is it when they start thinking, is it when they start breathing, is it when they come out of the womb, is it when their heart starts beating, is it when it becomes something resembling a human?  
I think regardless of opinion, that the fetus has the potential for life, and that life should be preserved.  
2A.) But "semen also has the potential for life"
Not in the same way.  This is like a die that is placed with the number 3 up.  If you never roll the die, it can't become a 6.  It doesn't have any potential to become a six unless it gets rolled.  In very much the same way, a sperm doesn't have any potential to become a fetus unless it meets an egg.  


To be honest, I'd like to see science develop new ways to allow a woman to have control of her body without having to choose abortion.

My take on abortion is mixed. Women should definitely have the right to an abortion in cases of rape or life-threatening conditions. However, they should not have an abortion whenever they please. That time when I read an article about a feminist having an abortion because the fetus was male infuriated me.

Instead, we should take priority on contraception and medically accurate health education. Some states actually prohibit the demonstration of proper condom usage, which is quite bad.
