    Legalised? Abortion is already legal? however I am and always will be pro-choice.

    I am made entirely of flaws, stitched together with good intentions.

    I don't know what i would do if i ever got pregnant- i would 90% probably get an abortion if i'm honest BUT i believe it is down to each individuals choice and no one should be pressured to do something they are not happy with.

    They might not be from England, there are so many places where abortion is illegal, or in the process of being made illegal

    Choice. I don't believe it should be used as an alternative to contraception though.

    Unfortuantely, I do risk passing on some pretty shitty health problems; so would have no choice but to abort if I did become pregnant.

    Definitely pro-choice.

    I have no idea what I would personally do in that situation but I believe everyone has the right to choose what they do with their lives.

    yes i agree, i am also pro choice ..... and shattered secrets, i live in ireland and it is not legal here but personally i think it should be

    I know personally I am pro-life but it is always the person's decision and I'm not one to judge that

    I'm pro-choice as far as laws go, since research/statistics etc. show that making it illegal only causes more lives to be lost or damaged.

    I am pro-choice, often allowing an abortion to happen is the most loving thing to do for the woman-and often the fetus.

    This would have crossed my mind if I fell pregnant from the rape.
