    [Read the article: Are men victims of forced abortions?]

    "So what does everyone suggest people do???? Allow everyone to continue breeding according to their own conscious???? Until we have made the planet uninhabitable for everyone???? If population is not managed in a reasonable manner everyone suffers horribly in the end. I can see the signs of it all around me now. I am glad I am in my 60's and will not live to see the misery man has created in the name of pro life."

    Over-population may be a big deal....but some big deals are bigger then others.

    Most of us know that we are supposed to cut down on the effects of green house gas emissions. But it's estimated that we HAVE to cut them down, completely, to 0%, by 2050....and it's estimated the damage will make our planet unlivable by 2100.

    Over-population is a problem...and abortion may be a solution.

    But there are other ways to solve it a little more quickly.

    Here we go....

    How about we hurry up and kill all the contestants in line for death row...EH?

    How about we pick on another country for awhile...kill off the population...EH?

    How about we make the death sentence a bit more strict and not let anyone claim insanity...or make a second degree of it....how about all murder means you die too...EH?

    So if forcing abortion is your solution...then why can't we try any of these too? I'm sure it would make a dent.

  • HEY ! Doppelganger!

    "Any decent high-school football team has at least several young men on it who weigh upwards of 200 lbs. I defy you to find a similar women's team. If you put, say, the men's lacrosse team up against the women's, and allow full contact, the women would all end up in the hospital."

    Let's team them up against these ladies...GOOD LUCK DUMB SHITS!

  • IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ME!!!

    [Read the article: My mom is better than your mom! ]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    Seriously...I live in a 6 room house...me and my boyfriend have 3 kids....and his sister lives with us and she has three of her own...standing in our kitchen is like being in a rave.

    things get broken on a regular basis. like five times a day I hear uh-oh...or, 'HE HIT ME!'

    my leave was two and a half months unpaid....but it was during the colleges Christmas break so none of us got paid.

    but it all depends on what job you have...a friend of mine got 4 months full pay and benefits.

  • vaginas are complicated.

    [Read the article: "Speak up for down there"]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    "Despite these famous exemplars of vaginal empowerment, one in two women is uncomfortable talking with her doctor about "vaginal discomfort," according to Vagisil's Voice for Women survey."

    We don't talk to our physicians about them because we have special doctors for that. A special place with pictures of puppies in teacups on the ceiling. A special waiting room with tons of women's mags all nestling that one hot rod magazine for the unlucky male company. The overly enthusiastic obgyn with her overly long fingers, who tells you to spread em' and look at the cute doggy.

    I say vagina alot in there....I never say down there...down there could be anything.

    I have had some problems with vaginal irritation...I took these pills I got over the counter and did a yeast infection treatment and ate lots of yogurt and laid off the beer.

    If you ever have any trouble with itching and irritation you can find lots of remedies at your local pharmacy....don't be embarrassed...men aren't when they itch in public.

  • It might not be murder...

    [Read the article: Stillbirth is not necessarily murder]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    but there should definitely be some jail time. Cocaine might have not caused the baby to die...but it most likely added to fetal stress...and anyone with a straight mind should know not to drink or do drugs when your pregnant...go to rehab...find a safe alternative...like eating more....

    yeah....so...it was her stupidity...put her ass in a cell for a couple of weeks...then in a half-way house or something...and if she doesn't want to clean up...then put her back in jail.

    duh, America...life could be a lot nicer, and less complicated, if rules were more strict.
