Ouch, Bellfire. That hurt. Not a lot, but a little. Like a pinch. I don't remember telling people what to post. Do you have examples? I assume there are many because I am always doing it.
Look I posted this thread because I wanted to see what people thought about it. I have heard of many people who think babies produced by rape are some sort of beasts. I was shocked to see how many people thought this. You couldn't realize how many mothers who are raped are traumatized and think the baby is less than human. So I posted this thread to see how you guys felt about it. If some of you felt the same way. As for me, I would like to confirm that I have nothing against people produced by rape. It think they are perfectly normal.
It would have been much better for you if you had said this in your original post, something like 'ive heard yet again, that some people think children of rape are monsters isn't that offensive' I think you've set yourself up big time posting this in here S
Did a demon rape them? I'm not talking metaphorical demon, I'm talking horns and stuff. If so, probably part demon. Otherwise human + human = baby. If this is a pro choice bit, it's a bit of a stupid ethical dilemma.
Dude, what a fuck up poll. The fucking rapist is an inhuman, demonic monster. If the woman does not abort the fetus, hopefully she has a wonderful therapist who helps her cope with the consequences of carrying the child to term.
rapists are mentally ill. can't blame a kid for some it didn't do. i have sister who is the product of rape. dunno what it would do to me to know that's how i ended up here. grateful for life, but shamed and dirtied by a parent. horrible stuff. better to not know.
Your right I did kind of set myself up for that one. I just hear of all these mothers who refuse to believe a human can be concieved by rape so they convince themselves that the child is some sort evil creature. In fact I know someone who was raped and is now pregnant, she thinks the same thing. I was hoping someone would use this post to give some sort of philosophical or religious or something arguement against it that could convince her the child is just a sweet, innocent little baby.
entirely too personal. if a child is born to a woman who thinks it's evil because she's been so entirely used, abused and damaged, what chance does that child have in this world? and if that mother can't bring herself to treat that child like a human, the victim becomes the perpetrator. sad thing, indeed.
The query part was for the thread starter only the first part was yours. You just said that people shoudn't respond to the post therefore you are telling people what to do by telling them what not to do. I'm sure if I look really hard I can find one of mine that you told me should be in here lol.
I consider them to be human, but I seriously doubt that I would carry to term a baby that was a product of rape. I just couldn't deal with it. And if I didnt' carry it, that baby spirit would go to someone else, hopefully two people in love.
Hip-Hop, my advice is to put your personal stuff aside, and try to comfort your friend. She doesn't need moral guidance, she needs her friends. Although I believe everyone is born innocent. But that doesn't make her pain any less real.
i will always root for the life of a baby. i'm definitely pro-life. but by the same token, i have nothing but sympathy for those forced to make such a hard decision. there is no one who is perfect, no one who sits in a place to judge anyone for any choices they have to make in life. life is hard enough.
i have moments of lucidity. but i've made enough hurtful choices in my life to know i've got no room to complain.
Yeah, I think we have all been there. I haven't done to much yet, but I'm young so I'll have lots of chances to make mistakes and wrong choices. I know it'll happen.
yeah. too many women whom i love have been faced with the decision, and as a teenager i nearly had to make the choice. i miscarried, and i was grateful. how different is that than having an abortion, i ask you? my baby died and i was glad. it wasn't truly real to me yet, and i was too young to be completely unselfish. but i'd already made the choice to keep him or her and tell my family. it was probably the extreme stress that made it happen. but maybe wishing again and again for it to not be so did it. that's a pretty heavy load, a heavy stain on a person's spirit. anyone forced to go through with somethng like that deliberately? hard, man. real hard.
We're all faced with hard choices. And while I wouldn't think of the baby as inhuman, I can see how someone would be traumatized by the whole experience and start to get ideas. We can't help how we feel.
strange things happen in the minds of rape victims. things verging or over the line to insanity. rationality will have little to do with it. add to that the crazy hormones going on when you're pregnant and you've got a very bad situation on your hands.
