This is a fantastic thread you've put together. Consider it bumped and bookmarked.

I especially like this quote which, I think would drive a lot of feminists today absolutely crazy.

"When we consider that women are treated as property, it is degrading to women that we should treat our children as property to be disposed of as we see fit." - Elizabeth Cady Stanton in a letter to Julia Ward Howe, October 16, 1873. Recorded in Howe's diary at Harvard University Library.

I have often heard anti-free choice people say that pregant women who do not want their baby should deliver that baby and put it up for adoption.

Now you are saying she must keep her child rather than dispose of it by adoption?

What next?
