As requested, I am making a video about abortion. I'm including timestamps because you might have already heard about how the baby progresses in the womb and considered how pro-life vs. pro-choice frames this issue. I do sprinkle in some thoughts about the role of government in the beginning as well.
My real goal in this video was to bring up some things that people do not typically discuss in relation to abortion. That is father's rights and adoption. Feminists leave no opening to discuss the argument that biological fathers should have rights to their children, even if the woman wants to opt out of parenthood. This discussion would be made simpler if abortion was illegal (then the obvious solution is have the father adopt) but it is legal so there is tension where feminists say that woman should not be forced to continue her pregnancy when she wishes to opt out of parenthood. But of course society holds no sympathy for a man who wants to opt out of parenthood but pro-choice advocates reject the idea that it is a natural and fair consequence for a woman making choices that led to pregnancy (lets take rape out of the equation) to have to physically go through 9 months of pregnancy if she doesn't want to.
3:55 Facts about what a baby can do in the womb. Btw, I've seen things between 3-6 with the heartbeat. It becomes easier and easier to detect but it could be argued the heart beat is there prior to the 5 weeks I referenced in the video.
7:19 Father's Rights
11:42 Adoption - With this discussion I admittedly have not fully formed my opinions. I have not done a ton of research in regards to this (I'm sure the laws vary by state anyway) but if you have facts or solid points to bring to the discussion of how to more effectively match children with loving homes and free them from a dysfunctional biological family, please respectfully comment below.
