Hello all! I'm new to the guild, obviously pro-choice. Maybe some of you have seen some of my posts in the ED's 1000+ page abortion debate thread... I've been fighting in there for quite some time now. Likely over a month, maybe more... scary. eek Somehow it never gets anywhere, though... crying
Anyways, I'm 20 years old, married, and currently not planning on children, if ever. I've asked about sterilization before, been refused. I'm tocophobic, underweight, and have some anxiety issues to work out - all reasons I do not want children, aside from my financial situation not being ideal for family life anyhow.
I'm very liberal and very pro-choice. I personally oppose abortions after the point of viability, but would never judge someone who had one or take that option away from them. I fight for women's rights like a sonofabitch, so I guess that would make me a feminist, also. Choice = Freedom And freedom is GOOD.

I'm not positive that I haven't introduced myself before, but I did start posting again, so there's that.
My name is one of many, Alex, Alexin, Alexis, but most people just call me Schist.
I'm currently attending university, am wildly pro-choice and have a lot of crazy feminist beliefs.
I'm vegan, but I don't judge. Do what's best for you and blah blah blah, so I don't judge and I certainly don't want everyone to drop what they're doing and follow my diet no matter what, however. I do believe strongly in animal rights and that comes out sometimes. ._. Like in my belief that anti-choicers should all be vegans if they care about life so much.
Then again I don't want them to be part of my club so hm. I'll think on it.
I call them anti-choicers, because that's what they are. They don't care about life because they can lobby for litigation on what I can do with my body but they can't lobby for clean water in third world countries?! Wtf mate?
So anyway. I'm me. Meow.

I've actually been a member of this guild for a few years.
I just switched accounts and had to re-apply. heart My old account was X.a.p.h.a.n if anyone remembers.
I've always been mostly a reader, because I feel I should learn more first before trying to contribute, but every now and then I'd pitch in to conversation or the Daisy rally.
Over the last year or so, however, I've become rather detached from the internet. BUT, I'm back and more active than I used to be so I'll be in as much as possible! 3nodding
It was you awesome ladies and gents that helped me through my first abortion (a surgical) which was due to a rape case when I was 15. I didn't think I'd ever have another, but, as irony would have it, I just finished my second (a medicated) last night. I admit, the second one was one where a tiny part of me wanted to keep the child, but due to major financial problems, school, and that I've recently started my own small business that needs almost all of my attention, I decided it would be better for now that I wait. I know in my heart I'm still not ready for a baby, emotionally or mentally. I wouldn't be able to support it and neither would its father. Ugh. ...This second one is the perfect example of contraception fails. I was on the patch AND made him wear a condom. Ridiculous, but it's life I suppose.
ANYWAY. I just hope I can see some familiar faces and help out as much as I can! 4laugh

Hi, I'm Gil. I know I've been in this guild for a while, probably under the account Angst-Bot. I've had so many, though, that I've lost count. Dx I'll look for myself later. I found out about abortion on my own terms when I was eleven. Like the little precocious brat I was, I informed myself, read opinions on both issues, checked out books from the library (those librarians never saw it coming...heh) and looked at medical facts, I knew that the pro-choice side of things was the most just. I've been raised by a pair of feminist lawyers. My mum was a feminist all along, and got in trouble for wearing pants to school. My half brother was born before Roe v. Wade, when my mum was seventeen. His father was mentally unstable and kidnapped him once. My mother had to work at a gas station to pay rent. He's in prison now, and I haven't seen him since I was three. Sometimes I wonder if things could have been different under different circumstances--I know my brother is a very unhappy man. My aunt(ish) is also a mother of three and an abortion "survivor". I hope that every woman has the choice to have their child or not. I also hope that people think that the one-in-three women are their friends and relatives. I'm now very passionate about women's rights and reproductive rights. I have debated about abortion online for four or five years now. My other passions are animal rights and gay rights; I am a vegetarian and have hand-raised infant pups and kittens in the past for a local rescue group, and I run the GLBTQ Thread in the Lifestyle Discussion forum. I'm especially attached to my causes and get, unfortunately, much too aggressive once I start talking about them. I try to keep myself as informed as possible, which is mostly why I'm here. Also, to help me keep the faith...all the people around me either don't talk about abortion or they're pro-life and talk about it far too much. Girls have brought in doctored photos and made massive posters about "baby killers" for social studies projects in the past (fortunately, I bitched so much that the teacher took it down. xD).

Hello I'm Rose. I'm also Adrian. It's kind of confusing but I'm basicly Two spirited.
I'm physicaly female, and a Lesbian.
I'm also eighten and between high school and college for mental health reasons.
Uh..I don't like the idea of abortions, because they make me sad. But I understand that we needed them,and we need to have a woman's choice. I'm nto against them on a moral level, I just wish they did not need to happen. I'll support any one's choice to keep or abort, because I have no right to decide someones life for them.
Also having no sexual interest in men, I don't think it's for me to say ,because they only way I would be pregant would be rape. So I'm really in no posistion to say for some one else something I'd never have to go through.
I also like anime, manga, Witchcraft, Dueling with swords, or with fights, Walks on the beach, music, painting and writting. Oh and I'ma b***h who loves to debate.
