(51,076 posts)The obvious fact that I am against forced abortions doesn't change that at all. When I say I am pro-knee replacements, I never have to explain that I don't want people to be forced against their will to have knee replacements. People just get it. But we have to manufacture all kinds of complications and unnecessary explanations when we say we are pro-abortion.
My pro-knee replacement stance obviously doesn't mean I don't support the use of NSAIDS and physical therapy if they are what is needed. Somehow people are routinely able to discern that. I don't need to explain it every time I say I am pro-knee replacement. When I say I am pro-abortion, most people will not assume that means I don't want women to have access to contraception and childcare and sex education. Because that would be a pretty obviously silly assumption. We really don't have to explain that.
One size DOES fit all. We only manufacture these complications because for some reason we have come to believe we have to justify our support for abortion. We really should stop justifying it.
It is not complicated at all. If you think a woman should be able to have an abortion or a knee replacement, you are pro-abortion and pro-knee replacement.
