yes, and I do, every day. particularly the one I've been married to for almost 40 years. neither of us knows quite what we'd do without the other, but we're sure we'd not like it.

If it werent for women, most men wouldn't have the drive or the desire to get up in the morning and go to work, much less to reach such lofty goals in life.

Women can join the military today because a soldier no longer needs to be a blood-thirsty testosterone-charged brute able to wield a 40-pound broad sword to hack the limbs from his opponent face to face.

I believe women have a very important role on society, but feminists take that too far.

But they should retain the right to vote, the right to choose for abortion, the right to serve in government or military (unless you're Lynndie England, who I have a personal loathing for), etc.

right to vote- yes, sure.

right to abortions- I personally disagree with this one (except in cases of rape, incest, or when the mother has a risk of dying), but if it is legal, then yes.

the right to serve in government or military- yeah, sure.

So then women do have the right to choose whether to abort.

No, especially because the state is secular.

Im against abortions because I think it is a waste of innocent human life, and I think it should only be allowed in cases of rape, incest, and when the mother has a risk of dying.

The human life does not really begin until the fetus matures. Before then it does not display human characteristics. It cannot take care of itself. It is physically dependent on the mother for food. It cannot see, and it still has a tail.
