- So you feel that forcing women to continue unwanted pregnancies
- is just punishment for their engagement in sex. And once they've
- given birth, you'd like once again use force to take their
- children away from them. What equivalent punishment do you
- suggest for the men involved? Nine months of slavery? Organ
- donation? What, praytell?

- So pregnant women don't DO anything, hmm? In that case, who
- needs 'em? If pregnancy doesn't involve DOING anything beyond
- the initial act of intercourse/other fertilization method, then
- why involve the women at all? Let the fetus do that big nothing
- all on its own!

- painful and unwanted. It is like a harmless slavery of sorts." -Kevin Welch,
