Not quite why are you trying to get off the issue at hand and apply every single emotional hot button issue to this discussion..

Lets go the full gambit and bring the Nazi's into it..

But for the sake of argument: would be safe to say that because you have never had a Abortion you don't understand the physical and mental pain it can cause in a woman to the degree *she* understands it?

This Young lady is comparing babysitting her brothers kids and her experience as a kid to that of freeper who are full time parents... Its not wrong to call someone who is ignorant of a reality ignorant..

N3WBI3 you are AGAIN talking about another poster without pinging them. That is considered bad nettiquette on FR.

Because sometimes an analogy is needed, and that's the first one that comes to mind.

No, you. Whoever invokes the Nazis automatically loses. (Does mentioning count as invoking?)

But for the sake of argument: would be safe to say that because you have never had a Abortion you don't understand the physical and mental pain it can cause in a woman to the degree *she* understands it?

Do I have the same level of awareness as a victim, if you will? Probably not, because I don't have the sensations to cause memories. If that's what you mean by "understand," then no, I don't.

But if you disqualify anyone without personal experience from speaking on any topic, this board will get real quiet real fast.

Behavior is what it is, regardless of who's observing it.
