Should?
In the past when this topic has come up most people avoid it.
And... when someone asked if you were being antagonizing, you said no. Yet
this request to legislate pregnancy is along the same lines as asking for
complete gun control. It is sure to get a rise out of the list. Perhaps the
thread will dwindle soon, since this list is predominantly male and guys
dislike the topic to begin with....
I think you're barking up the wrong tree, purely because things cannot be
"your way" unless even more laws are put in place, and we aren't notoriously
the list that is in favor of government regulating women's OR men's human
reproductive organs.
I see that you are looking at the future and trying to solve a problem.
good luck.
