Would women really lie about rape to get an abortion?

Oh wow, I hadn't thought of that, but it makes complete sense.

I think its very possible that this will happen often, but it shouldn't. They shouldn't have to lie about anything. If they don't want or can't care for the child, they should have the right to an abortion. Working in health care I see too many cases of child abuse, neglect, and death that could have been avoided by giving the mother the right to choose whether or not she could properly care for a child to begin with. I don't advocate abortion as a means of birth control, but for some who get pregnant far too young or are hooked on drugs, its the better option when you consider the most probable outcome.

Put yourself in their shoes, you're impregnated for whatever reason with a half million dollar liability of a child that you dont want any part of, the state rules say you cant end the pregnancy, unless you were raped. damn right you say you were raped by an unknown assailant.

Of course a woman who would accuse a specific person of rape to get the abortion is scum, but if they just cried anonymous rape its just exploiting a loophole in an asinine blue law

Of course they would. Who the hell wouldn't tell a lie to get around a fascist law?

kloo2yoo · 2011-04-03T00:46:06+00:00

but would it be a lie?

"I have another human's body parts stuffed up my vag against my will!"

I didn't watch the video debate, but it sounds like the Dem opponent (or should she be a supporter?) of the Rep pictured was missing the point... Yeah, it's an article of the Feminist Faith that women don't lie about being raped

(even though they do... do feminists really think that women are some damn superior race who wouldn't ever stoop to doing manipulative shit? what a crock...)

... but the Indiana Repub Rep made the case against the bill stronger by saying it had this big ol' loophole in it. She should have been saying "shit yeah, that's a terrible bill!" and not "oh naw, we proud and virginal innocents would never take advantage of a shitty loophole to gain access to abortions. Please make this into law so that we can remain high and mighty by not taking the down-and-dirty road." What a ditz.

Rep. Linda Lawson (D), a former sex-crimes investigator, shot back, "Women don't make this up!"

I hate that claim, and I hope that any of you from Indiana will vote against her in the future. I mean, hell, it's not even "suspected" that it happens. The Duke Lacrosse team? HELLLOOOOO?!?!

We don't have to go far to find an example...

Norma (Roe of Roe v Wade) admitted years later that the case which gave women abortion rights was based on a false allegtion of rape.

I'd lie about rape for an abortion. However, i'd probably also get an abortion before 20 weeks, having an irrational fear of unwanted pregnancy so deep it's not funny. I'm confused why you can't get checked before twenty weeks. You're talking about getting checked if there's a FETUS THAT WILL BE A BABY inside you. But I guess it's the good ol' individual woman/situation going on. That's just my two cents.

EvilPundit · 2011-04-03T00:34:04+00:00

Yes. Yes, they would.

Assuming women would not to take advantage of special treatment by falsely claiming rape - is sheer lunacy.

There are too many examples of it - everything from boyfriends getting them pregnant, to orgies they didn't want know they consented to, to outright trying to get away with literal murder.

PierceHarlan · 2011-04-03T02:29:58+00:00

Some women will lie about rape to get whatever they want.

sinsyder · 2011-04-03T03:37:09+00:00

Why is it always the Republicunts making peoples life harder?

Liverotto · 2011-04-03T04:09:40+00:00

Women would lie about rape for a hot dog.

adriens · 2011-04-03T03:14:32+00:00

Hard to be raped and not check for pregnancy at any point in the next 5 months.

hitler_was_reich · 2011-04-03T00:29:36+00:00

Yes they would, the stupid cunts.
