Poll question: Under what conditions would you deny a woman the right to terminate her pregnancy? 
 It was not possible to list every reason why a woman would need to end a pregnancy. (though I did feel restricted by the limitation of ten.) I've tried to word these options to cover the most common circumstances/conditions/reasons. While, under current law, the need for a late term procedure would always fall within the confines of 2,3,7 and 8, these same conditions do not always necessitate late termination.

Please offer the reason(s) for your choice(s), if you're comfortable in so doing.

Btw, this is the boldest post I think I've ever made, and my first poll. I am not personally challenging anyone (in this post). The topic has been taboo most of in my life. Even when I have had discussions with others on the subject I've often wondered how much of their opinion was in deference to me and mine (opinion). I'd like to know how the left honestly feels, without any input from the right.

Under which of the following conditions would you deny a woman the right to terminate her pregnancy?
Poll result (212 votes) 
I'm male - if she doesn't want a baby for personal or financial reasons   (6 votes, 3%) Vote
I'm male - if her health/life is threatened by the fetus/pregnancy  (1 votes, 0%) Vote
I'm male- if the fetus will not live or will be severely disabled  (1 votes, 0%) Vote
I'm male - more than one of the above, or other (please explain)  (2 votes, 1%) Vote
I'm male - none of the above. I trust women.  (65 votes, 31%) Vote
I'm female - if she doesn't want a baby for personal or financial reasons  (1 votes, 0%) Vote
I'm female - if her health/life is threatened by the fetus/pregnancy  (0 votes, 0%) Vote
I'm female - if the fetus will not live or will be severely disabled  (1 votes, 0%) Vote
I'm female - more than one of the above, or other (please explain)  (3 votes, 1%) Vote
I'm female - none of the above. I trust women.  (132 votes, 62%) Vote

A gender filter on policy voting rights?

How anti-suffragate.

Maybe they need a gender-based poll asking men when should they be allowed to decline paying pay child support.
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

Male: I'm white and we always have to pay.
Female: I'm white, baby black, rich white bastard got to pay.
Female: Because the world owes me a living.
Female: I knowz my rights!
Female: Never.
Female: Never.
Female: Never.
Female: Never.
Female: Never.
 

“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin
