DarkRebel69:
It's quite silly to hold briefs for abortion on the premise that the woman's body belongs to her and so grants her the legitimacy to unilaterally decide whether or not a foetus should be KILLED. Yes, I think we should call it KILLING, not ABORTION. The word "abortion" sounds too abstract and seems to lessen the significance of the act. It's like opting to call The Holocaust "elimination of Jewish elements" rather than "the mass murder of Jews". The former sounds abstract–even poetic–, while the latter sounds concrete and much more forthright.

And no, it's not just the woman's body. It stopped being only her body the minute she got pregnant. From then on it became the body of two–or three in the case of triplets.

I remember one particular Christmas from my childhood. My grandmother bought three chickens and we–her grandchildren–played with and fed them with corn from early December up until the morning of 24th December. I remember that on that morning when the chickens were to be slaughtered, my grandmother stretched out the neck of one chicken, handed a knife to one of my male cousins and asked him to cut the chicken's neck. He couldn't. And this was a boy of about 16 years. And I'm certain many of us get naseous and squeamish about the sight of blood–Well, unless you're a psychopath like KarashikaExra.

The point I'm trying to make is, I think abortion comes easy to many people and doesn't seem so gory due to the fact that the "shedding of blood" is not explicit, or should I say, due to the fact that it takes places internally and so our conscience is spared of the graphic details. Supposing that abortions have to take place manually–not via abortion pills and the likes that help with the guilt–, supposing you actually have to use your own hands to stab the foetus no matter how tiny it is, and supposing you have to see tomato paste spurting out of its tiny frame, then maybe then would abortion be seen what it really is, which is MURDER – a sin against both Man and Nature.

I think abortion should only be an option in cases when the birth of a child poses a great danger to the mother's life, or in cases of rape. Even in cases of rape, the mother could have the child and then place him or her in a mother-less home.

Wow, this is very insensitive to women, you can't tell a woman who her body belongs to, her body belongs to her and her alone, point blank. End of discussion


Furthermore you have absolutely no right to tell a rape victim what to do with her pregnancy if she got pregnant as a result of the rape, that's very insensitive and outright annoying.
The woman was raped, yet you want her to carry that reminder of rape for 9 months without her opinion on the issue, that's just disgusting and insensitive. I have no words, for you to actually think you have the right to tell a rape victim what to do with her pregnancy. Just wow.

A woman's body belongs to her and her alone, let that sink in.

You have absolutely no right to tell a rape victim what to do with a pregnancy as a result of rape, let that sink in also.

Do you think life is rosy in motherless babies homes?

These are just the issues I have with your write up,
The rest is your personal opinion which you are entitled to.

I'm pro do whatever is best for you and the child

AlmiqhteeAllah:
Hahaha. I'm currently in SAINTLY mood, so I'm putting on this SACRILEGEOUS costume to counter-balance its force.

Lol, all right

butterflyl1on:
Why do we have adoption agencies?

That's if the mother is willing to carry the child or not. If she wants to carry the child to full term and give it up for adoption that's her choice, she is the one who will carry the baby and go through the pains of delivery. If she doesn't it's her choice also.

if the woman doesn't want to carry a child she shouldn't


you can't force a woman to go through pregnancy and childbirth because "adoption agencies" that's ridiculous.

Furthermore what happened to all the other children who need good parents? Why can't people adopt those ones?

I know people can adopt kids and treat them well but there are also stories of children not being treated well either by their adoptive parents or at orphanages or fosters homes.

I would rather not add to the stories of children who are not treated well by their adoptive parents. It's a gamble that I would rather not want a child to go through.

AlmiqhteeAllah:
Lol.... My emotional waves don't stop stretching until they reach their elastic limit. Mother told me I was born into an ocean of love beautified by blue flowers of transcendent perfection. I guess that's why.

So what mood is this?

LMAO ;

That's too bad

ToZaraWithaZ:
Haha. Thanks for the compliment. I'm blushing.

LMAO

Don't blush too much

It's the mother's choice if she doesn't want to carry the baby she shouldn't, if she wants an abortion it's her choice.

Furthermore, no one should bring a child into this one when they know they won't love and take care of the child.
Except the person is a surrogate

Damn what anyone says,
No child deserves to be born to parents who don't what the the child

ToZaraWithaZ:
Head of the family? What a joke! Soul mates is what it is called; you're partners - you met each other, loved each other enough to settle down together, then it is up to you as adults to come to agreements and decide on whatever works for you. There's no head since no gender is instrinsically inferior.

In the home, the one who is better at something should head that department. Marriage is not a Master-Slave institution, but one established on LOVE, FAITHFULNESS and TRUST, involving people who understand the meaning of what it is they're venturing into.

Where did you read it in my post that men should be the "head" of the family?

All your posts on gender equality are making too much sense

ToZaraWithaZ:
Is that what you think of your girlfriend?

Funny, then, how you could take a bullet for a child that passed through a "crazy menstruation hole", reeks of the owner's blood, and has lived through her heart beats.

Isn't the child equally tainted as this shiit you hate? You must be REALLY confused.

I don't know why it's now a thing of joy to attack women unnecessary on NL, the fool in his haste to write the usual women bashing comment with the expectation of receiving likes from his fellow brain dead sexist idiots forgot to actually sit down and understand the implications of his comment,
Or maybe it was above the poor fool's mental ability.

We can't really expect much from a fool now

Now why would someone be in a relationship with someone he describes as a "crazy menstruation bitch" and what does it say about such a person?

But then again, we are simply expecting too much from fools.

Seems like nairaland subtly encourages this women vs men stupidity I see these days, they won't hide ridiculous comments insulting women or men neither will they stop bring topics that encourage such foolishness to FP

@tai2

I would advice you even if you do not love anyone but her right now. After confronting her, two weeks later, get yourself a new girl. A rebound chick. Not a chick you will complain about your ex to. Someone you will screw and set your head straight even if you don't love her. Loneliness is your enemy.

I love your advice, it's perfection.

However I don't understand the paragraph above, when you say get a rebound chick, I hope you mean he should let the chick know it's nothing serious? I don't think it's right to let a girl fall in love with him then use her and break her heart just because his heart was broken?
Apart from my confusion with that paragraph, let me say again that all your advice on this topic is simply perfect

Ksslib:
I wasn't impressed with crixuss at first and was willing to let it go since he might be a dumb 14yr old teenager who's brain cannot yet grasp the concept of plagiarism , but now that I just discovered that his stupidity was even glorified with a front-page placement, I am pissed.

Somebody stole my work - word for word - and gave himself credit for it and instead of banning his silly ass, you guys celebrate him on FP? So Nairaland now supports theft of intellectual property? Wow!

I still remember how much data I spent that night 3years ago in uploading those pics despite how expensive data was back then and the stress it took to edit those pics with texts.

Pls delete this thread, don't just lock it . I don't want to see it.

I'm in support,
It doesn't take any thing to credit someone

If the mods want to hide my comment they should also hide any comment bashing women on this thread,

ToZaraWithaZ:
What happened?

www.nairaland.com/1504894/documentary-nairaland-pictures

The op copied some pictures from ksslíbs former thread and didn't credit kisslīb that's what I said I don't like seeing,
When people go uncredited, lol,
That's why I said I no longer like the thread

Ksslib:
Thank you jare. The guy just copy my old thread without giving credit. lol It is well sha

That's so bad, some people who get to FP can't give people credit for the work they do these days,

I no longer like this thread jare, I don't like seeing things like this

crixuss, do the needful

I will try it once,

This is the only one I can attempt to eat though

lanre316:
Can your trekking take you to heaven?

Ask him

ToZaraWithaZ:
Lol....... I was merely telling him the truth.

The guy has to sit down before reading this your truth, if not he may collapse

ToZaraWithaZ:
Nah..... Not at all. Merely switched handles.

Let's just say the "shape" of this moniker is my preference in the mood I'm currently in.. Lol.

Hian, so if you change mood you change moniker,

I'm weak.

This one is different. Lol

crixuss:
When a showdown seems eminent on a thread, some NLers become spectators like. . .

ToZaraWithaZ:
Yep.

All right, were you banned?

Wonderful thread op

ToZaraWithaZ:
Thank yo!

I believe it's our generation that will drag this great country out of the ditch it's fallen into. I have this feeling that this generation has a rendezvous with Nigeria's Destiny. I see new flames blazing new trails.

Are you also holding firmly onto that flower called HOPE?

You're welcome

I will always have hope,

Are you the moniker on your signature?

ToZaraWithaZ:
You've already answered your own question and provided solution to your problem, so what other advice do you still need?

Your family is obviously made up of scroungers, moochers, parasites and vampires who will drain you of your blood and share it among themselves in spanish glass cups, consume your flesh in an horrifying act of cannibalism, and then finalize their obliteration of your destiny by feasting on your very soul itself.


"Settle them" before you can get married? This must be one of the most ridiculous batshit I've had the misfortune of reading this year. You're surrounded by evil kin.

dakeskese:
...
Are you sure the pastor is not trying to heal NwaAmaikpe? Cus (s)he ran out of NL mad.

Lol,
NwaAmaikpe should come back jor, I miss his craziness. I found him funny most times

MarieSucre:
As opposed to Peter and Paul of Psquare, Eedris Abdulkarim and 50cent, 9ice and Ruggedman, Davido and Wizkid, Terry G and that other idiot that I don't know his name, men have always been friends of themselves se. Please if you don't know what to say, use your mouth and blow whistle ok.

Quoted for emphasis

Iwaycee:
I respect ur opinion, but dats not d best option in dis case. Can u visualize ur wedding day without any family member from ur side, although they ar still alive, truly speaking U won't enjoy dat, so I believe d man should try and sort tinz out with d help of elderly ones in the family

Thanks that's rare to see on NL

I understand your point, but lol if they push me away first than yes I will enjoy it.


I wanted him to try and settle but threatening him that he shouldn't marry before he settles them and if he doesn't they won't come to the wedding was too dramatic for me.

What does settling them even entail op?

If they don't want to come don't invite them na,
I know I'm different though, no time for stress,


I would have asked you to try and resolve it but I don't like the way they are threatening you.

You come first, before anyone, even your family. So do what's best for you. Let them go

ToZaraWithaZ:
That's cool! I'm pure Nigerian too.

HAPPY INDEPENDENCE!

Lol, wish you the same

How can Yemi alade tell her to quit music? With the noise she always puts out? She better face that her noise she calls music.

ToZaraWithaZ:
Oh, I see. That's nice. Are you Nigerian?

Yep, both parents, what about you?

ToZaraWithaZ:
Thanks. Nice name. Mind telling its meaning?

It's a mix of 2 names actually no meaning
