And why is that? It's her body and she has the right to remove the fetus in her. Why does she not have the right to put a tankful of Nitrogen in her lungs if she chooses to do so?

Your statement implied that there was much in common with the two scenarios. There isn't. Therefore it's a bad comparison.

fwiw I'm pro choice on both issues.

And I am too. I am not anti abortion I am pro voluntary suicide.

"Just go to therapy it will be better" vs "Give the baby a chance you might grow to love it". How is it any different?

[ux-app]

Suicide in otherwise healthy individuals is (imo) a mental health issue. Abortion is not.

Your initial comment that I responded to implied that discouraging suicide is or should be in bad taste. I don't agree with this statement.

My position is predicated on the assumption that life is better than death.

What kind of mental health issue do the people in the article below have?

My position sees death as a permanent zero. If your life is continually in the negatives and you have to work every day to keep it there then putting it at zero permanently without any more effort required seems a good deal to me.

Death is not really a zero. There's nobody left to do the measuring. Its more like a singularity?

Its a curious notion that folks dwell on about what its like after death. How about - you won't be there? The question is nonsense.

Well maybe the words chosen are wrong. I agree that there would be no "me" left to do the measuring. In death there would also be no "me" left to measure things and find it is negative either.
