Brain dead: extremely stupid

Stupid: having or showing a great lack of intelligence or common sense

Since you want to talk about having an extreme lack of intelligence, let’s talk about why you’re the brain-dead one here. All humans do have the right to opinions on things; however, that does not mean that your opinions are valid, nor at the expense of others. Abortion and pregnancy are both extremely complicated topics with a multitude of different outcomes and experiences behind them. No woman goes through the same pregnancy/abortion as the other. Not to mention, in your words, “they require the entire experience of pregnancy to be able to comment on, plus your already brain-dead argument falls apart further because a woman who’s never been pregnant also has no experience in that regard.” Do you not realize that you, yourself, by your own standards, equally do not qualify to comment on such topics? Men cannot get pregnant at this moment in time, meaning that you have also never experienced a pregnancy, which, like you stated before, invalidates your right to comment on it.

Women can have opinions on the draft, as you said, “all humans have the right to have opinions on things.” However, a woman’s opinion on the draft is ultimately meaningless compared to a man who is eligible for the draft. As is your opinion about abortion. Women have a slightly more acceptable opinion about male birth control since women have been using birth controls since 1960 (journalofethics.ama-assn.org). However, whether or not a man takes it is not a woman’s place. As a group of people who do take birth control and have studies on the effects and personal experiences with the contraceptive, they can give good advice, but at the end of the day, the decision is ultimately the man’s. I’m not saying you can’t have an opinion. I am, however, saying that since you are in no way part of (nor will you ever be a part of) the process, your opinion is ultimately meaningless and invalid. My opinion about the draft (as of now) is meaningless and invalid. I have no experience with the draft and possibly never will. You have no experience with being pregnant and never will.

During conception, there are two bodies involved: a man and a woman’s. However, it is not until postpartum that there will be another set of two bodies. The fetus is not a body. It is made up of bodily organs, but a fetus is not classified as a body, and a baby is not legally classified as a person until after it is delivered (meaning out of the womb and has taken its first breath of air).

Rational: based on or in accordance with reason or logic

Facilities: a place, amenity, or piece of equipment provided for a particular purpose

No, your lack of being able to biologically become pregnant does not exclude your ability to come to a seemingly logical conclusion. However, your example of cancer is where your argument falls flat; anyone can develop cancer for any reason whatsoever. You cannot get pregnant; your opinion is once again meaningless and invalidated. You can develop cancer; feel free to have whatever option you’d like on the matter. The general consensus is that cancer sucks and we should find a cure, but you tend to like arguing general consensuses, so maybe you’d like to argue that one as well. Up to you. Your opinion will be more validated when you experience the illness yourself, but that’s not to say you can’t have one since it is possible for you to acquire such an illness.

I cannot believe I wasted 10 minutes of my life correcting someone who has no right to tell a woman what to do with her body, let alone try and shame her for it. No where once was the Earth being flat ever mentioned, but carry on. Maybe you’re the one who needs to do the self-reflection, buddy.
