Re: My argument is based on my belief that the pro-choice women are more dedicated to women's causes nossy Send a noteboard - 03/02/2012 12:08:01 AM
I think the pro-choice women are more focused on women's health issues than their pro-life counter parts and so will be more likely to continue to contribute to breast cancer research despite being unhappy with this choice.

I would say I agree in terms of ALL of women's health issues/education/etc, but not if one limits it to breast cancer, which is what he seemed to think I was saying. I think that breast cancer charities have really done a lot to get most women interested. SGK specifically.

Your point is what makes me think pro-choicers might move their donations to another organization that funds both cancer research and places like PP.

What can I say I am cynic and the codein cough syrup my Dr gave me isn't changing that. Seriously how to people abuse codein for fun? I makes me feel dizzy and nausiated.

Aw. Maybe if you spin in circles you'll negate the dizziness? I'd try it.
