InTraumatica 5,786 Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 In September 2016 Polish government is debating a project of a law delegalizing abortion. Today Poland is one of the countries with the strictest regulations of abortion, allowing for a legal abortion only in three cases (rape, serious genetic damage of the fetus or risk of health or life of the woman). However, even in the cases when a woman should have a right to do abortion, she might still be refused the operation by a doctor on the grounds of conscience. Right now, there are thousands of Polish women expressing their outrage and disagreement - on the streets and in the social media. Demonstrations are hold to protest against those unhuman laws. We want to signal the events in Poland to our sisters and brothers abroad. We believe that mobilizing international feminist community to actively express support of the Polish women's and men's fight against the unhuman law is important. We want to show that international solidarity of women is a powerful political tool. Let us remember Audre Lorde's words "Any power you don't use yourself is gonna be used against you". Let's remember Lorde's concept of 'joint survival' - the notion that each individual survival is interrelated with the survival of others, so is the wellbeing. Lets stand together and imagine the tools for the fight together! #czarnyprotest #blackmonday #SavePolishWomen In solidarity with Polish women, and all female around the globe please wear black on Monday, 3/10, to show your support. You can also post photos with hashtags (#czarnyprotest #blackmonday #SavePolishWomen) *Black color shows our mourning after lost women’s rights You can read more about this matter in the following link:https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2016/09/a-dangerous-backward-step-for-women-and-girls-in-poland/ WHAT IS IT ALL ABOUT: 1. Polish right-wing government just rejected a project which suggested a legalization of abortion until the 12th week of pregnancy, followed by facilitating access to contraceptives and a good program of sexual education. 2. Instead of that, the Parliament decided to discuss a law which will ban abortion in almost every case of endangered pregnancy (passed through the first step of Polish legalization path just last week) 3. The new law mention: - even a miscarriage will be investigated to ensure that a woman has not willingly acted as if she wanted to get rid of her baby; - doctors removing a fetus, even when a women’s life is in danger, will also face legal consequences (thus, what they all already are saying doctors will be afraid of charges that might be out against them if anything goes wrong and the woman will miscarry) - Women will have to give birth to children conceived during rape, to fetus with a huge damage and prognostic of disability or even death just after birth, despite their own health , both physical and psychological. Thank you! The women of Poland PS. You can post Gaga black and white pictures and mention her with #blackprotest tag. Maybe she will support us! @Admin @Haroon http://bit.ly/2d7Y8jZ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmm 879 Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Science does show that at conception the person is alive. Whether merely being alive is enough to confer rights depends on your morality. Also, if you support a woman's right to own her body, you should also support all kind of drugs even the most dangerous and support prostitution.

According to science, the child is alive so dont even try to make that argument. The argument most people who are pro choice say is even if its alive, its the womans choice!!
