40 Years ago today. The insidious U.S. Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion. weather you are pro life, or pro choice. I am asking all my my-lot friends to please take a moment and say a prayer, for all the children...

polaroidsredwine Alas, God's law is not the authority where I am. That is not the only definition of death - a heartbeat is only part of what keeps the body ticking. There's also this thing called a brain that's kind of necessary to function. At fourteen days, the child...

I am fuming right now, I submitted my pay. I log into today expecting to be paid, yep my money isn't there. A lady my mom works with who has a the same job as me but different route didn't get paid either. Now luckily I...

polaroidsredwine I agree. There has to be some law about this, no matter if you work for the government or not - not paying for a full month is definitely shady and far from okay. This really needs to be taken up with a lawyer or something. The government needs to abide by the...

I went to mall nearby the office this afternoon to hear mass which I used to do during Wednesday. After the mass, I went to the mall supermarket to buy something. This supermaket used to barricade just like in the bank before the...

polaroidsredwine Oh yeah, that would've made me ridiculously mad, too. Sad to say, she will probably attempt to pull the same stunt again - having one person get on her case about it probably didn't do enough to teach her a lesson on being polite and, you know, following the...

I don't get some men at all. They have so low thinking that they go on passing comments, if a girl is wearing a short dress that means she is inviting a rapist. Or she is a open vault, and anyone can take her advantage. I want to...

polaroidsredwine What a terrible comparison to make. A person's body is not a commodity. It's not a woman's fault that society has sexualized the female body to the point where she needs to actively think about how she should go around dressed. It's not like men have to do...

It's sure a very fragile issue to talk about but I want people to know that there are good conceptions about this. I know that this might be a burdened from couples, especially the younger one, when they have an unwanted pregnancy...

polaroidsredwine Not every person has the resources (financially, mentally, physically, emotionally) to care for a disabled child. And not everyone in the world wants to have a child.

Last week a story came to me that an old friend got pregnant and aborted her baby. Sad! It really shocks me a lot as I heard of the news. I never expected that she can end a life of an helpless baby. I feel guilty of what she did...

polaroidsredwine It's not the penultimate goal of a woman to have a child, and there are mothers out there who really don't have the barest inkling of concern for their children - just because a person has an abortion doesn't mean they don't care at all for life, because it's...

Encountering the few people who are genuinely nice and patient when it comes to us retail workers who pull shifts on Black Friday make the entire day worth it, in my opinion. Today I had to drag ladders out for several...

polaroidsredwine Ahaha, Black Friday is definitely chaotic. The aisles were filled with toys that both parents and children had haphazardly discarded, so I spent a good chunk of my shift trying to get everything organized again. I'd love to rest tomorrow, but I have a shift...

Oh I live in a country where Roman Catholic dominates and we strongly believe that abortion is a sin. I'm just thinking what if abortion is legal, does it has a great advantage? Less street kids, less starved people specially the...

abortion is legal

polaroidsredwine Just because someone has an abortion doesn't mean they will go through severe depression after. There are many people out there who don't ever want a child. I agree with you that birth control should be given out, but not only that - people should also be...

It seems that women are switching to Gov. Romney and away from President Obama. Are women seeing the Democrats as a single issue party when it concerns women? Their ads seem to show women only concerned with Birth Control and...

polaroidsredwine Considering that a women being able to have control over her body and decide when to get pregnant, which can highly effect her life as far as having a job and the like, yeah, it's a pretty big issue. and Romney flip flops on the topic of women's health so...

Obama during the debate said that Planned Parenthood provides a lot of mammograms for women. Really? Kathleen Sebelius, who in Obama's cabinet says that Planned Parenthood is not licensed to do mammograms. So either planned...

polaroidsredwine All of the Planned Parenthood clinics I've been to have far from encouraged abortion - I've gone with friends who've been pregnant, with my sister who was pregnant, and every time they've been encouraged to keep the child, being given a range of support and...

polaroidsredwine and on that note birth control pills are used for more than just preventing pregnancy - there are plenty of medical reasons (cuts risk of ovarian cancer, pain relief during periods, and I know a girl who benefits greatly from it since she has endometriosis).

polaroidsredwine I'd just like to say that males having to foot some of the bill for birth control is no different than us ladies having to help pay the cost for men to receive insurance-covered erectile dysfunction medicine for men. And that is definitely a thing that...

polaroidsredwine The program won't cover ALL of the costs of some of these, though. Insurance will cover a good amount, but otherwise some costs do come out of pocket of the person seeking treatment. And for those people who can't afford the extra amount that insurance doesn't...

polaroidsredwine And yet you seem to forget the stigma associated with Planned Parenthood because of so many people touting them as existing only to provide abortions. It's a lot easier for those sliding scale clinics than it is for PP because there's a lot more controversy...

polaroidsredwine That's assuming each support has that amount to give. Not every supporter can give money. Not every supporter who donates has that amount. Also of note, the organization only receives a third of its money from the government grants and contracts.

polaroidsredwine Because not all of those people actually donate money ...? And considering that the same sheet says they serve about 5,000,000 a year, that would kind of require a lot more money than just donations.
