The pro abortion lobby has successfully fought to be sure that women can abort to avoid stretch marks, to avoid having yet another girl, or because it will interfere with vacation plans.

Why would you kill a baby just to keep your figure.
by DukeG on September 4th, 2009
Yea, maybe your mother should have thought that way too.

If she's a swimsuit model it would mess up her career.

Totally, it shows how immature you are, you are not ready for a kid anyway.
by Devin on October 23rd, 2009
They say it's just a clump of cells. So, it's as good as any other reason.
by Mark on September 10th, 2009
It's a legal reason, and it's been done many times, no doubt.
by allzee on September 4th, 2009
I could think of less serious reasons. Someday the kid will want to drive your car.

i would say it would be a better reason not to pass along your DNA to another generation ...

No, of course not.

That is the worst reason for an abortion I ever heard in my life.
by LindsayJ. on October 23rd, 2009
so you would want the baby except for sretch marks?
cocoa butter can ease them and then they fade into silvery marks. but if your maturity level is there, then youre probably not ready for a child anyway.

as good as any,after all its only another living organism
by Christina on October 24th, 2009
I don't think so. My stomach looks like a roadmap but thats okay because I have two beautiful baby boys to show for it. I'm proud of my roadmap. :-P
by MasterS on October 24th, 2009
Are you kidding me, tell me your kidding.
This is the most horrendous reason i have heard to date.

Was that your mother's excuse?
by Mexican Barbie on October 23rd, 2009
noooooo ill give u a reason to MAYBE CONSIDER abortion...being raped. We are in 2009 stretch marks can be fixed. I think a baby is worth every stretch mark in the body. We are not eternal we will not look the same ten yrs from now.
by armygirl on October 23rd, 2009
yah if all you care about is how you look and yourself. thats the lowest thing i've heard today! god i'm proud of mine!
by becca09 on May 11th, 2010
Absolutely not. Anyone who would use that excuse is just desperate to find justification for killing. Also, That should have been considered before the conception. In cases of rape, when it wasn't a choice, there's cures for stretch marks, they aren't a reason to kill.
by evandad on November 2nd, 2009
Your profile lists your gender as male. Are you just trying to provoke people with this question? Do you actually know someone who is considering abortion so they won't get stretch marks?
by Woodshill on November 2nd, 2009
That seems like such a vain question. It is hard for me to believe it was asked. Sorry for the blunt response.
by Gnome of Kevonia is a Cheerwine junkie on October 24th, 2009
There is no reason for an abortion in my mind, and stretch marks - definitely not a reason.
by Nightwatchdog on October 24th, 2009
Well if that works for you then maybe so - of course many people - myself included, would think that your a bit of a nimrod and want to avoid you at all costs.
by manywords on October 24th, 2009
NO
by Dr_Dredd on October 24th, 2009
Legally, yes. Morally? Only a woman can make that decision for herself.
by chelsea on September 10th, 2009
It's probs one of the more stupid reasons.
by Sheriff Raff -Answerhag on October 24th, 2009
I guess if you are Kate Gosselin and you have already had your stomach fixed from the six kids you carried in there already.
by catydid on October 24th, 2009
Right up there with Botox and Major stupidity.
by Mosexy on November 2nd, 2009
Legally, any reason whatsoever is valid for having an abortion. Spiritually, it depends on the person and her beliefs. But honestly, if she's that selfish, we probably don't need her genes going around.
by CaptainHarley adores his life penguin on November 2nd, 2009
No. Any woman who doesn't want stretch marks can rub her abdomen with olive oil and prevent them.
Mississippi is voting today on a constitutional amendment that will outlaw all abortions even when rape and incest is involved. (cont)

If a girl gets pregnant and wants to keep it, but the boy wants to abort it, should the guy be absolved of all responsibility?

Sure. It's your life, you only live it once (I believe), so live it how you want.
by scorpinot on October 24th, 2009
What about the baby's life? Will they get a chance to live how they want?
