I believe that a woman has a fundamental right to make decisions about her own body. I disagree with abortion unless the pregnacy will most likely cause the death of the woman. I would be saddened by the terminated life, but I would probably be more saddened by the death of the woman.

I don't believe that laws should be created to prevent a woman from having an abortion. I think it is a personal moral issue.

Should i mark on the calendar the day we agreed? *L*

i have my own personal reasons for thinking abortion is wrong unless a pregnancy is seriously life threatening. But that's just me.

I think that other people have their own personal reasons for feeling that way too. I'm not a woman, so I can't judge them, but I can only agree to life if it possible without causing death.

Do you think if you let me sleep with you that we could agree on more things? Just a thought.

Probably not, but it might be fun fighting a few things out. :devil:

You would mostly have the advantage, so it wouldn't be a fair fight. I just imagine you would have a firm grip.

Sure it would be. Just fight dirty.

Give me a while to arrange babysitting...

Some times I get a massive hard-on on these threads. You have made me adjust myself (pants suddenly got tight).

I had the conversation with my wife about getting another woman pregnant. What would I do? I would beg for my wife's support, because I would do my very best to support the mother and child as much as they would let me. It would be fabulous. I even thought about writing a story where a husband and wife take in the pregnant mistress.

You have an overactive imagination. Good quality.

You could also pull off a story like that. Not many could.

I was re-reading a section in one of my fiction text books about short stories and novels. You can't really afford to waste words when writing a short story in order to avoid boring the crap out of the reader and to fully express your plot.

Where to begin?

The wife slaps the husband's face after he gives her the news about getting his mistress pregnant.

BTW, wouldn't it be a "Loving Wives" story?

Or the day the pregnant woman moves in, with a bit of backtracking.

Could be a group sex, or exhib/voy, or gay sex. All depends on how it's written.

And on that note, i'm going to try to get some more sleep. Didn't get much last night.

Okay, the conflict is over the abortion issue. The man having the affair gets his mistress pregnant. He brings the mistress to his home when tells his wife, who is angry because of her husband's carelessness in getting the woman pregnant not about him having an affair. The mistress is thinking of having an abortion, and the husband and wife are against abortion.

How to write a good meaningful short story. The conflict is life vs death, moral delima. What are the arguments for the pregnant woman who finds herself pregnant by a married man when she can barely afford to take care of herself?

For me, the resolution would be that the mistress chooses life for her unborn child.

If anyone hasn't figured it out, this is not just a political or just a story idea, its about writing short stories. The issue is showing all the issues in a short story.

CONFLICT > RISING ACTION > RESOLUTION > FALLING ACTION

I agree with your basic position but could quibble a bit about the difference between "death of the mother" and and "irreversible harm to the mother" and whether it's a "moral" or "medical" decision.

Abortion is a horrible choice that should be an absolute last resort in situations where the alternatives are worse.

were you just trying to distract all the women from my pms thread? :rolleyes:

I thought I mentioned that I love women :D

Harold, I don't know. It would depend on what you would call "irreversible harm to the mother". She is small and her baby will be over 10lbs. Her stomach swells to an incredible size "DAMN! She's big!" Doctor advise that this is going to leave a mark.

Sorry, but stretch marks, bigger boobs, longer libia, wider hips, and a juicer butt are not life threatening to me. I could love a woman and see all of her beauty inspite of minor flaws.

Stretch-marks, and the rest of your list are hardly "irreversible" thanks to advances in cosmetic surgery.

It's not up to me, or the government, to determine what constitutes "irreversible harm" -- it's up to the woman, her doctors, and (to some extent) her family to explore all of the alternatives and decide if abortion is the "least horrible option." The answer will be different for every case and might well be different at a different time in the mother's life as circumstances change.

I will say that I don't think "irreversible harm" is necessarily a physical condition.

I think for me that life and death are purely primal issues. I lean more toward immanent danger. If she has the child, she will most likely die. If having a child means that she won't be able to go to the prom, I think I would be disappointed. The prom is usually a once in a lifetime opportunity, but the value of it does not amount to life. Social statis does not compare to life.

I've been in the delivery room and got up close and personal. Nothing beats the mericle of life.
