Why do Femenists agree with abortion, yet want to abolish the death penalty?

Mike R answer is so incorrect, a life begins when the sperm joins with the egg. And the reason Feminist want abortions is so they can be irresponsible whores and not face the consequences of their actions. But yet they say the death penalty is taking life and only GOD has that right, so who made them GOD to take a babies life. And for everyones education a SH** load of abortions occur after 5 months.

Feminists don't agree with Abortion.

They agree with a Woman's Right to Choose.

There is a big difference.

I am someone who is definitely against abortions, and see them as immoral.

I also recognize that there needs to be a way for women who have been raped, victims of incest or other sexual abuse, and women who are putting their own health or lives at risk by being forced to carry a child to term, to terminate their pregnancies if they so choose.

Because these issues directly involve women and women's rights, they are often the focus of many Feminist organizations.

As far as Feminists and the death penalty, I am not sure that being a feminist necessarily means that you have an opinion either way, since the majority of death row inmates are not women, but men.

And, in regards to the idea that Liberals take advantage of Feminists . . . I really don't know where you got that idea.

Feminism as a movement is considered to a "socially progressive" concept.

Social Progressivism is a trait of Liberalism.

Here is an idea about how people typically view the Political Spectrum:

LIBERAL

* Social Progressive

* Economic Liberal

MODERATE

* Social Centrist

* Economic Moderate

CONSERVATIVE

* Social Traditional

* Economic Conservative

In order for your theory to work you have to believe a fetus is a viable human being. For me that distinction is made after the quickening (when the heart starts to beat and the baby starts moving) around 5-6 months. This is also why causing a miscarriage or abortion in the bible was punishable by a fine and nothing more.

So many people have bought into the catholic doctrine that even birth control is murder it's just stupid.

I could be wrong, but I don't see how being anti-death penalty is a requirement for being a feminist. I would imagine that quite a few women see putting abusive men into "old sparky" as being rather empowering to their gender.

because babies are more dangerous then murderers
