It also implies that women are not strong enough without a law forcing them into having a baby, as if the human population is at risk due to abortion. (wrinkles nose) Because we can't make these decisions on our own, so men have to make them for us. Also, Fetus > Baby > Woman, since frequently people who are pro-life are also against social programs, so it becomes even more of a punishment for having the bad taste to be unlucky. (No one will ever admit that, though, and it proves its weakness when the exceptions for pro-life stances start getting listed. But that it another rant.)

I have found very few people are able to look me in the eye and tell me that I'm not a person.

The trick, I've found, is in getting them to admit to what they're doing at all. :\ We are very good at marginalizing and excluding people who disagree with us without acknowledging that's what we're doing. (I think I pretty much just did it, actually, with the whole Sarah Palin =/= Country =/= Feminist thing. I want her out of my pond, dagnabit!)
