You believe that individuals should have the autonomy to make decisions about their own reproductive health and bodily integrity.
The "Pro-Choice" political ideology is a belief system that supports the right of individuals to make decisions about their own bodies, specifically regarding reproductive health and abortion. This ideology asserts that decisions about pregnancy, including the choice to terminate it, should be left to the individual, typically the woman, rather than being dictated by the government or any other external entity. Pro-Choice advocates argue for the legal right to access safe and legal abortion, as well as comprehensive sexual education and access to contraception.

How do you think reproductive rights could affect relationships and family dynamics?
@9KBPQM73mos3MO
If teenagers are forced to keep their baby even when they're not ready, it could cause some serious feuding between the families.
Teenagers are children. They shouldn't be forced to carry a child, ever. They have the ability to make truly informed decisions. Parents should not make that decision for them.
@9KCXSKX3mos3MO
I agree because some teenagers may still be in school and because they now have a baby that have to drop out of school to care for the baby which may prevent them from graduating.
@9KC43H9Republican3mos3MO
Although political views affect families, as individuals we should work towards respecting everyone's opinions even if that consists of people you are in a relationship with.
@9KBSDXX3mos3MO
some families are too poor to provide for another child
@9KBQWR83mos3MO
There is a difference between killing, and murder. Killing in cold blood is murder. So unless there is a genuine threat to the mother or the child, abortion should not happen.
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
What are the implications of denying people the right to make their own reproductive choices, in your view?
@9J6S6HM4mos4MO
You save the lives of babies. Unless in cases of tape and incest you shouldn’t be allowed to get an abortion
@9J6YWT34mos4MO
I believe that every child should be born into a family that can take care of them and wants them, rather than being born into an abusive family or one which cannot provide for the child.
@9J6YSJZ4mos4MO
they aren’t babies yet they’re clusters of cells. if they are born they will live an awful life either with a mother who didn’t want them or in a terrible foster home.
@9JCCH344mos4MO
It would be great if we had fewer abortions. No one wants an abortion! Increase access to health education, birth control, and other contraceptive measures. With these resources, there will be fewer abortions, without forcing women into a shadow state of existence where their bodies and their rights are not fully their own.
@9J8Z6XV4mos4MO
You cannot control the rights to someone elses body. It is not affecting, therefore if it is not your body it is not your choice. It does not matter the cirumstances.
@9J6S4NR4mos4MO
I think people should be able to choose what they can and can’t do with their bodies. I don’t think the government should be able to tell someone what to do with their body.
@9J7HX9B4mos4MO
to remove a persons free choice over themselves is to remove a large piece of integral freedom from them.
@9J6SFHK4mos4MO
They are robbing people of the right to make their own decisions about their own body, they are robbing their free will and of their freedom which is what this whole country was built upon
@9J665KPRepublican4mos4MO
I think people should be denied the choice to have an abortion since they are the ones that chose to put themselves in that situation.
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
How does the idea of reproductive choice resonate with you in terms of planning your future?
@9J36NX34mos4MO
Im pro life and against the “transgender movement”
@9J4Z8PZ4mos4MO
Other people's choices that don't directly affect you shouldn't matter. If you don't believe in abortions you don't have to get one, but that doesn't mean someone else shouldn't be able to get one if they want or need it. As for the "transgender movement", it's not a movement, more of an awareness. Transgender people have existed for a very long time, dating before ancient Egypt, we didn't just pop up out of nowhere, we are simply trying to bring awareness and normalize being transgender.
It will determine where I can and can not live; as a woman with PCOS, this directly threatens not only my health but my life and freedom... especially since the right to birth control was also on the precedent of Roe V Wade
@9J3F9RC 4mos4MO
Women who are pregnant will be carrying the baby, and if they do not want it, they should not be forced into having the baby. Outsiders of their lives do not know their situation and therefore cannot judge what they do with their fetus. That fetus inside their body is theirs, and until it has passed a certain time, it shouldn't be classified as a baby.
i feel that a person should have the ablility to change their body how ever they so feel
@9J36QC84mos4MO
I think every woman should have the choice to choose when it comes to reproductive health.
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
What parallels do you see between reproductive choice and other civil rights issues?
@9KDL3YR 3mos3MO
Pro-choice is giving women the right to make decisions with their own body. We don't require vaccines to prevent diseases that endanger the lives of others, but we force women to have a child when they don't feel at all prepared and, in addition, force a child to be born into a potentially unstable or dangerous situation??
@9KL5LDGRepublican2mos2MO
Human life should not have to be taken just because someone doesn't want to have a baby, especially if they are far into pregnancy.
@9KL4DVZ2mos2MO
It’s not just their body. And there are programs to help them learn to be a parent, or adoption for those who don’t want to
@9KDMMT33mos3MO
i think pro choice should be pro choice if its in a act of danger, like rape then obviously you should get an abortion. Also if you are not able to care for the child, but otherwise, i think you should keep the baby.
@9KDMK3X3mos3MO
you should be able to be in control of your own body and when you want to have a kid
@9KDM6ZC3mos3MO
I think pro-choice is there choice, if you are having sex with a condom and birth control, and somehow still get pregnant, you took all protective measures and still got pregnant, I think it should be the mothers choice on whether to keep the kid or not.
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
Imagine how future generations might view the reproductive rights debates of today; what do you think they would say?
@9JC6KZL4mos4MO
That all humans should have choice in their own bodies
@9JC6NWP4mos4MO
I think they would agree with being Pro-Choice. People who aren't Pro-Choice, it's more of the older generations. It's the women's choice to choose what she wants to do with her body, other people's opinions shouldn't have an effect on that.
@9JC6JL7 4mos4MO
Those children may grow up in fear, not having bodily autonomy. Women will feel inferior, and men may think that women should be controlled.
@9JC6GFN4mos4MO
that you should have a choice as well in the matter
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
How do you think popular culture and media representation affect public opinion on reproductive rights?
@9J36H9L4mos4MO
yes, media is all we see so sometimes we get influenced by the public
@9J675PSIndependent4mos4MO
the news often put their own opinion on their political views and often influence the public with wrong information. For example, CNN.
@9J36K3T4mos4MO
Pro lifers are pushing their opinions way too much on the public
@9J36NHS4mos4MO
They demonize pro-choice by misrepresting scientific studies with religious beliefs.
@9J36DH24mos4MO
I believe that birth/abortion is a deeply personal, and circumstantial issue that should never be resolved through propaganda or coercion (i.e., media representation/popular culture). Reproductive rights should be private, like any other health care matters. Just as all of the personal responsibility (risks, costs, care/support) for that birth will be borne by the individual, so, too, should the reproductive decision itself.
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
How do you think access to different reproductive options shapes our society?
@9J36S7C4mos4MO
Reproductive options are important for our entire society to consider. Empathy is important, and also facts. Pro-choice should be implemented everywhere for the the Mother/ body whom carries the child/ owner of embryo through surrogacy, regardless of opinion. Mothers whom are in a contract pregnancy should also have rights until the baby is born, they should be able to ensure ( with an official opinon as well such as a moral or govermental agency) that the baby will be in a safe home.
@9J3CTK24mos4MO
A person should be able to choose if they are able to give the embryo in their stomach a good life instead of a miserable one if they were to abort.
@9J35SHV4mos4MO
I think different reproductive options are definitely convenient but also expensive at the same time, society developing signs. But wommen should not be pushed to resort to other reproductive options if their main choice is abortion
@9J35QQT4mos4MO
I think it makes our country more sexually active which can be degrading to the way they perceive other people.
