Pretty sure a rape victim would want to handle that ASAP you can generally find out if you are preggers about 2 weeks after conception.
Conception might not happen right at the moment of rape though. Sperms can live up to 4 days until ovulation. Also I’m pretty sure rape victims have about a million things in their mind. Asking the victim of a vicious crime to act rationally is asking too much.

thank god for mejico!

but yeah, Texas is a backwards ass state with the exception of some clusters
Export guns and abortions, import drugs and avocados. US Mexico trade will flourish for sure.

Honest question, is there a good biological reason why abortion couldn't be considered unethical/termination of life?

Or do we just accept that we're killing and we're fine with it? Everyone seems to avoid that uncomfortable truth.

My opinion:
1- not all pregnancies are planned. The only way you can 100% make sure you’re not pregnant is stop having sex.
2- Fetus might have terrible biological disorders that can’t be detected by week 6. That’s very much outside of your control too.
3- risks to mothers in some cases (not sure if this is covered in Texas law or not)

So what? That still gives you 3 weeks to perform an abortion. Not thinking straight has nothing to do with the 6 week window, some things do need to be done within a timely window like HIV prophelaxis, so the medical attention will cover all of that including abortion.

This argument is a dishonest one. Saying rape victims won't have access to abortion is simply false.

I did not say they don’t have access to abortion. I simply explained Texas law. Your initial argument and 6 weeks number is very much dishonest by your own admission.

whats uncomfortable about it? If you don’t want a baby, you shouldn’t be forced to have one. These are all kids that will end up in shitty situations and poor anyways.

im willing to bet almost all people anti abortion are religious and the state shouldn’t base the laws on religious reasons. In that case, I’ll just start a new religion that prohibits birth and use that as an excuse for people to get an abortion under “religious reasons”
