There's a lot of male's commenting here.
Just saying!
@Harriet03 As a guy the way I see it is if other men are trying to legislate a woman's body I think me remaining silent about that is the same as an endorsement of that. Some things staying on the sidelines is not a great idea.
@Harriet03 At the risk of being unpopular, I think that there are times when it's only fair that men get a say, too... I mean, it's his child as well - and, in the absence of rape or other abuse, then he deserves to have his views listened to and taken into consideration as part of the decision making process.

Too often these days, abortion is used as a weapon to hurt the man rather than the couple working together to come up with the best outcome for themselves and the child. "I was pregnant - but don't worry, I had an abortion" shouldn't be a viable way for a woman to be telling a man about an abortion.

@Harriet03 Yeah that sure is a crime. Not that they have anything to do with the baby's creation.

Ps. No apostrophe in males
What @PicturesOfABetterTomorrow said. I'm not involved in this to tell anyone what they should do or can't do. I'm acknowledging it's a very complicated issue that nobody should take a general stance on. It can only be judged on a case by case basis by the people involved, hence freedom of choice is essential.

@SW-User American autocorrect, what can you Do? 🤷‍♀️
Hopefully you spend as much time on contraception, as you do with grammar!

@Harriet03 Why should I. Don't males have no say?

@SW-User Yes but not the final decision!
