Using the argument that if abortion were to become illegal then the women who supposedly “need” abortions would simply turn to illegal abortions and be less safe is simply entirely stupid.
First,legalabortions are not safe.
Second, the amount of abortions people have would no doubt significantly decrease if abortion was made illegal and obviously that would result in less women dying or being injured from abortions ( and less babies dying from abortions! ).
Third, to be completely honest, if you have an abortion and are injured it’s your own fault for getting one in the first place. Saying it isn’t is like saying that if you punch yourself in the face and it hurts it’s not your fault. My point? If women get illegal abortions after abortion is made illegal and are injured or die, it’s notourfault for making it illegal. We didn’t force them to get an abortion, we are the ones trying to warn them about how dangerous it is!
Let’s break this down, shall we?
Using the argument that if abortion were to become illegal then the women who supposedly “need” abortions would simply turn to illegal abortions and be less safe is simply entirely stupid.
Not everyone who gets an abortion is a cisgender woman.
Also, people do NEED abortions. Why? Because Murder is the leading cause in death for pregnant people.[Source 2]
One in five people who are pregnant will witness domestic violence in pregnancy.
Domestic violence in pregnancy affects around 324,000 people each year in America.
Pregnancy is a common tool used to keep people in abusive relationships.
Because trans* people often feel unsafe going to abortion clinics due to cissexism and internalized transphobia, so they resort to unsafe abortion methods such as swallowing paint thinner.
How dare we think about the pregnant person for once.
First,legalabortions are not safe.
Open heart surgery is not safe because there is ALWAYS a chance something can go wrong. The same goes for all forms of healthcare and health services. Do we dump them for not ALWAYS working?
Also, fewer than only 0.3% of abortion complications require hospitalization. [Source]
Abortion Is Safer Than Childbirth:

Safety Of Abortion (Guttamacher Fact Sheet).
No, abortion doesn’t cause breast cancer.
PASS does not exist:
Two APA sources [Source 1] [Source 2]
People often report feeling “relief and happiness” after an abortion.
Guttamacher’s Statement on PASS.
Second, the amount of abortions people have would no doubt significantly decrease if abortion was made illegal
Abortion Higher Where Illegal:
Source One
Source Two
Source Three
And before you cite that study from Chile, Guttamacher disproved that.
There are 68,000 to 70,000 people who die of illegal abortions per year. And here’s two more sources supporting this claim. [Source 1] [Source 2]
( and less babies dying from abortions! ).
Fetuses and embryos aren’t babies. This is a scientific debate and we use medical terms.
Third, to be completely honest, if you have an abortion and are injured it’s your own fault for getting one in the first place.
Hey, if you get open heart surgery and it fails, it’s your own glob damn fault because you chose to get the surgery in the first place. It’s exactly like punching yourself in the face!
If women get illegal abortions after abortion is made illegal and are injured or die, it’s notourfault for making it illegal.
How pro-“life” of you!
We didn’t force them to get an abortion,
The laws do force them (not just cis-women) to give birth even if they don’t want to.
we are the ones trying to warn them about how dangerous it is!
*Points to sources*
Do some research before spouting out your claims. When you look at all the sources I’ve provided you, your argument stands no ground.
I love it when Gold destroys the arguments of pro-“life” people. <3
