We Oppose Abortion Because We are Sexually Repressed?

Timothy Birdnow

This is ridiculous and pathetic. Pure junk science.And it's being promoted by the media; I thought fake news was supposed to be bad.

https://news.yahoo.com/really-drives-anti-abortion-beliefs-122531280.html

Here's the crux of the argument:

"The crux of this argument is that, for sexually restricted people, other people’s sexual freedoms represent threats. "

Gee; I thought it was because we believed children shouldn't be murdered where they are most vulnerable!

How could I not realize that I am threatened by the sexual liberty of women who just want to have fu-un.

And here's their ridiculous claim:

It’s common to hear religious, political and other ideologically driven explanations – for example, about the sanctity of life. If such beliefs were really driving anti-abortion attitudes, though, then people who oppose abortion might not support the death penalty (many do), and they would support social safety net measures that could save newborns’ lives (many don’t).

This is idiotic. The death penalty is a completely different issue and they know it. It's not just the sanctity of life but of INNOCENT life; someone being put to death has forfeited their right to life, generally by taking it,  and usually in a way most heinous. Unborn children can in no way be equated with a murderer.

We do not execute thieves or others who commit property crimes. Only really,really bad people.

As for social safety net measures, the reality is these government-run social safety nets are the very reason many women become pregnant in the first place. Supporting those only creates more neglected children. And the private sector does a much better job of it than a government run entity. Also, those paying for it have no say in the matter; the government merely steals their money and gives it out to those who have not earned it, ostensibly to help  the children but in reality it often goes to alcohol or drugs or whatnot.

You will notice how the authors of this study did not even consider any of this; they just decided to dust off an old idea of puritanical prudes v. cool hipsters.

The article continues:

Other women’s sexual openness can destroy these women’s lives and livelihoods by breaking up the relationships they depend on. So sexually restricted women benefit from impeding other people’s sexual freedoms. Likewise, sexually restricted men tend to invest a lot in their children, so they benefit from prohibiting people’s sexual freedoms to preclude the high fitness costs of being cuckolded.

So it's all about holding women back!

Ri-ight!

Nowhere is abortion ever looked at as the taking of innocent lives. If it is not why do we punish murderers? I mean, it's little more than retroactive abortion after all.

Sadly this will give justification to the stupid and the dishonest to support abortion, and young people may actually fall for this idiocy.

We live in an era of gaslighting.

Then it says:

This attitude is perhaps best illustrated by a statement from Mariano Azuela, a justice who opposed abortion when it came before Mexico’s Supreme Court in 2008: "I feel that a woman in some way has to live with the phenomenon of becoming pregnant. When she does not want to keep the product of the pregnancy, she still has to suffer the effects during the whole period.”

Force people to "suffer the effects” of casual sex, and fewer people will pursue it.

I guess the authors don't realize that women suffer emotional trauma from abortions?  I suppose they never heard of Post Abortion Stress Syndrome? I guess they don't realize there are medical problems often associated with abortions?

No; it's because others just resent women taking charge of their own lives!

The article also says:

Also note that abortion restrictions do not increase the costs of sex equally. Women bear the costs of gestation, face the life-threatening dangers of childbirthdisproportionately bear responsibility for child care. When women are denied abortions, they are also more likely to end up in poverty and experience intimate partner violence.

Yet these very problems have increased since abortion became "safe and legal". How odd.

The article goes on to say opposition to gay marriage proves "sexually restricted" people are just jealous kill-joys doing it to empower themselves. Not that gay marriages only normalize a cultural-destroying thing that leads to much suffering. No, it can't be THAT!

I wonder who paid for this study? No doubt we all did.

1 The idea that opposition to abortion stems Geometry Dash solely from sexual repression is not only simplistic but also ignores the diverse range of reasons why people may hold pro-life beliefs.
