RE: Understanding Reproductive Rights: Finding Common Ground

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

In issues like this it's very difficult and almost impossible to have a balance, people are different, societies have different laws guiding it's citizens, so I think when we talk about balance we should speak with respect to what is acceptable in any society and with any individual.

Individuals act based on what they think is acceptable with their conscience and what the general society holds true and acceptable within limits of moral conscience.

There are situation where some persons find themselves intermingled in very difficult situation where evading societal principles becomes the only escape route. Hence they become faulted on the scale of balance.

Issues like this will continue to arise in our societies and we mustn't turn deaf ears to individual differences.
We'll not want to delve into other aspects of why we have rules, who makes the rules, and whether the rules are made to guide the society or the society made to follow the rules. All this are controversies that must be resolved under dialogue considering individual differences.

Reprodcution rights perhaps one of those few rights which can not be envisioned in silos or individualism, otherwise it will be difficult to answer the following questions :-
(1) Can it be divorced from of a couple, husband/wife, etc?
(2) Can it be divorced from the vision of family?
(3) Can it be divorced from the vision of community/society?

Reproduction rights on the premise of reproductive freedom, should commensurate shared needs of potential mothers and collective needs of society

Put simply, Reproduction rights act as a safety valve. And reproductive freedom is a social code, in which individual rights can not be divorced from the vision of family, society, etc.
