Men can get pregnant

Until reading this thread, not a single one of us has ever heard of Aimee Arrambide. Yet, whatever she says suddenly represents all Democrats, everywhere, and shows that they have all lost their minds. Makes sense. :rolleyes:
The Democrats control the committees and the hearings since they control the House, do they not? These were the folks they chose.





You want to be mad about somebody misstating the Democrat's position on abortion, be mad at whomever picked these women as the spokespeople in the hearing.
 
Certainly you hold the same standard to conservatives
LINK?

The only thing I can think of is pointing out when ELECTED REPRSENTATIVES like MTG (not some random schmo off the street) says batshit crazy stuff like how the "Gespacho" is out to get her. Even then, I don't hold up her views as representative of all Republicans.

It was dumb, but based on her previous comment I get where she's coming from.

She said that anyone can identify as a man/woman. She didn't say anything about actual biological/anatomical gender.

If you agree that anyone can identify as a man (as she stated she does), then a person with female genitalia who identifies as a man can get an abortion.

I'm not saying it's good or bad. Just that I can see where she's coming from/why she said that.
Gender Roles Can Create Lifelong Cycle of Inequality
Ohio Guy, think you would appreciate this article entitled "Gender Roles Can Create Lifelong Cycle of Inequality" which in part states...

Girls and boys can also be assigned very different tasks even when working in the same environment, which exposes them to unique risks and hazards. On a family farm, for example, boys often bear greater responsibility for operating machinery, using sharp tools, and spraying chemicals. Girls, on the other hand, more often play a role in hauling water and carrying wood.

My wife, for example, when growing up preferred playing baseball with her brothers rather than spending time in the kitchen with her sisters and mother learning to bake pies. My nephew who played college baseball loves to recall playing wiffle ball in his teens with the older Aunt Vicki and losing to her. She refers to the activities she likes as being those of a "Tomboy" as compared to her sisters. Accepting the role of a Tomboy comes pretty close to thinking you are a male.

Not unless you want to kill yourself. It’s a long hot day. You need a beer that also hydrates. I’ve also done some Mexcans. Tecate in a can is my go to for track.
A good session IPA will keep you.

At 16th and Georgetown I don’t want anyone side eyeing me. I want them to see me drinking a cheap beer. So they know I’m a damn Murican.
Then you go Steel Reserve and forget the last 1/2 of the race.

Lite beer Flys through me. Frequent piss stops. While craft I can hold out for hours.

Plus there's buzz levels. If you start out with a dipa you are at cruising altitude for the day. Just mix in some bottled water. :)

I think Sun King should release GFJ before the race instead of before the 4th.
 
That’s not my point. Fox News exists to be an outrage machine of largely worthless limited topics to people who are outraged by the same. See the OP and his topic starting history.
This could be said for both sides, media in America is blatantly slanted depending on the affiliation. Opinion based things I do take with a grain of salt and do both ways, but when it is blatant like this one it is just to black and white.

I've seen countless threads started regarding Trump the past few years that were largely full of "worthless limited" information and typically opinion and the same goes for Biden.
 
Absolutely. That's clear to anyone with a brain. The question I have is, why do all of these grumpy old white men on this board care either way???? WTF does it matter to you if your neighbor has a vulva but considers themselves a man? WTF do you care? Did said vulva owner come to your house and hold a gun to your head to try to convince you to identify as something other than what you prefer?

Can they keep this hearing going until November? Please call more witnesses Dems.
 
High Life IS superior in a bottle. Same for Modelo.
Anyone who drinks straight from a can or bottle is missing the joy of sipping beer through a poured head and having the tiny bubbles dance on your tongue. If it leaves a foam mustache, you are dancing with the stars.

I think the Rep does a good job of pushing these witnesses on the logical conclusions of their positions. I agree they don't come off well.

In the second clip with the doctor, the Rep says that "it happens," referring to abortions of perfectly healthy babies at 9 months, seconds before giving birth. Is that true? Is there an instance on record of that occurring? Anyone have a cite or link?

The dunbass democrats invited her to the hearing. They knew exactly what her idiot opinions were.

I don’t disagree. But starting threads everyday (and only one sided) about stupid people saying stupid things isn’t so productive IMO.
We had this exercise on here every day during Trump. This is the idiotic stuff the Dems push everyday. Therefore this dumb shit is relevant every day.

Hell my old high school in the middle of nowhere is dealing with a furry that is demanding a litter box. The leftist democrats are the ones promoting ignorant stuff like this.

Maybe if people see it enough they will say enough.

I think he was trying to get her to say where she would draw a line just to narrow down if she could conceive of any restrictions. Didn't seem like she could. As to the type of abortion being discussed, I believe the partial birth abortions would fit what was being described.

If they are trying to win the argument using these examples, that’s incredibly poor strategically. Most people support some limitations and find these late term abortions (absent extraordinary circumstances) abhorrent. The Ds are often bad at politics.

A drag queen won "Prom King" at my old high school this year. How many times in your life will you see a Queen turn into a King right in front of your eyes. lol

I'm pretty ignorant on this subject. There are partial birth abortions being performed on healthy fetuses in the 9th month of pregnancy? Do you have a link or cite for that?

Are these two--the Rep and the Dr.--just disagreeing over what counts as a "healthy" fetus/baby?

Here is the closest I've come so far to finding an answer:


"So, considering the cost of abortions, the fact that fewer than 0.3 percent occur at or after 21 weeks for non-genetic reasons, that most abortions will be before 24 weeks, and the expense of the procedure, it is simply ludicrous to insinuate that this happens regularly — never mind at all. And a “nine-month abortion” of an otherwise healthy fetus? That is just untrue.

The only type of abortion that happens anywhere near nine months is for fetal anomalies​

The only type of abortion that does happen after 24 weeks is for fetal anomalies. Most abortions for fetal anomalies happen before 24 weeks, but a very small percentage happen later than that. The abortions that take place later do so because it takes time to do the ultrasounds and genetic testing. Sometimes a fetal MRI may even be needed.

Sadly, some women are lied to by anti-abortion doctors in states with gestational age limits and get their genetic testing done on the late side because the doctor wants to try to take the possibility of an abortion off the table. I have personally heard of this happening.

However, even with the most on-the-ball OB-GYN, it can still be a race to get all the information and give a pregnant person time to think it over before 24 weeks. Sometimes the drastic nature of the problem isn’t fully realized until the pregnancy progresses. Other times a woman is carrying a fetus incompatible with life and thought she would go to term and let nature take its course, but then she realizes she just can’t. Who among us should judge those women?

When these procedures do happen, they could be an induction of labor, or some highly skilled providers can perform dilation and extraction procedures past 24 weeks. The closer to term (40 weeks), the more likely the procedure will be an induction of labor. So at 36 or 37 weeks, in most situations, the doctor will simply induce labor and after delivery not resuscitate the baby. However, there are rare medical situations where that might not be advisable, so the option of a dilation and extraction allows women in these situations to avoid a C-section.

The facts are that 98.6 percent of abortions happen before 21 weeks. Most of the terminations at or after 21 weeks are very wanted pregnancies with serious fetal anomalies. Some are for the health of the mother and a very small percentage are for personal reasons. Almost all women who have later abortions for personal reason would have had the procedure sooner if they could have, so the very laws proposed by politicians who aim to restrict abortion (mostly under the false pretense of safety) actually lead to delays.
