Well, as this thread seems to be dying, I will use this opportunity to make some closing thoughts (I made an 800 mile road trip yesterday, so had plenty of time to think).
I know that there are significantly more males than females that participate on this board, however, I find it interesting how few actually chose to participate in this discussion. Most of the commentary was made by males, which could be equated to the males here doing the voting on the subject of what women should or should not be allowed to do with their bodies.
This is the problem, I think, with what is going on in the real world. Lack of participation by the involved parties (in this case, women), so the people making the decisions of what women are allowed to do with their bodies are men. And why? Because women are not speaking up and making their voices heard.
Maybe I am giving this board to much credit, but I think it is its own little world, and scary as it might be, this world and the outside world are pretty much the same, just on a smaller scale.
So, any of you chicks that are tired of men making the laws that are governing what you can do with your own bodies, you might think about speaking up for yourselves, because while Pro-choice came out on top on this poll, the voice was made primarily by men. In the outside world the voice will also be made primarily by men, but the Right-to-Lifers could have the final say.
Something to think about.
