A fetus past 20 weeks (22 in this case) already has the "hardware" for consciousness to arise, because the thalamic radiations connect to the prefrontal cortex. So at this point you're murdering a human. And not any human, your child that you're supposed to be a guardian of. America is fucking insane with their lax abortion laws. Shit like this isn't at all prevalent in Europe.

Would it have been better to allow it to be born to such a mother? I'm not sure. I think it's better to allow abortions even this late, because this future baby would've been born to a mother who hates it. Kids tend to feel this stuff even at an early age and it tends to fuck them up for life. Of course, the better way would be to make adoptions a lot easier than they are so women who don't want to be mothers can give away the kid right after it's born. There are plenty of couples who can't concieve and might consider adoption if it was less of a hassle.

Of course. You wouldn't advocate murdering kids who are already born with bad mother, would you? Once the fetus is worthy of ethical consideration, because of best evidence pointing to it's capacity for conscious experience, effectively becoming a human, then it doesn't matter whether it's still inside the mother or outside. It's murder to kill it in both cases. And not just murder, but with the added weight that you're killing a child who's your dependent.

Yes it does, because at 22 months, it still very much depends on the host organism for survival. As far as I'm concerned, the host organism gets to decide, especially considering how damaging pregnancy tends to be on women.

At 22 weeks it actually has a chance to survive; the best outcome for the mother would be a delivery anyway.

But the host organism caused the fetus to be where it is. This is like saying if you force someone to attack you at gunpoint, you're justified in shooting them because it's "self-defense", even though you made them do it.

Still, she didn't want the kid. As a man who also doesn't like the little shits, I understand why she wouldn't want to birth it, especially since birth also means a c-section or a ruined pussy in her case.

Probably through mistake and not through will. It would be very stupid of her to get pregnant just to ruin her body and abort it at 22 weeks. But still, within her rights.

Then why not advocate for the same in the case of a child who's not yet born? Seems inconsistent. But let's see where you draw the delineating factors.
>Yes it does, because at 22 months, it still very much depends on the host organism for survival.
If depending for survival is the delineating factor, then you necessarily should also support the right for women to murder their newborns. Those depend on their parents for survival as well. Plus there were fetuses born as early as 21-weeks old.
>As far as I'm concerned, the host organism gets to decide, especially considering how damaging pregnancy tends to be on women.
Pregnancy generally doesn't damage the mother's organism. It can have complications, but with modern medicine those are very fringe cases.

What did you have for breakfast, anon?

Face it. Morality is subjective. If we decide abortion is moral, then it is. If your argument is about consciousness, then becomes a vegan and an anti-war advocate, you flaming hypocrite. You don't give a shit about babies or conscious creatures, though. You don't even care about abortion. This is just a game to you. Which is fair, not everyone can be expected to care about every contentious topic.

I'll admit my own opinion on abortion is quite loose. I don't think it matters either way, but I think that any abortion beyond the 4th month is dubious.

Tl;dr This is not as serious as you think it is. Your arguments is suspicious.

Did she trip and fall on a guy's dick?

Unless she had no concept of what sex was, or was raped, it is her consensual and deliberate actions that led the fetus to be where it was. There is no rational way to argue she has the right to kill it unless you argue the fetus has no moral worth.

Then why do all mothers at my workplace complain about health issues that began right after delivery? Stuff like deteriorating vision, loss of ability to concentrate and high blood pressure. One of them has now had high blood pressure for 9 years after not having this problem before giving birth. Apparently some mothers' teeth start to fall off and they drop pee when they laugh for the rest of their lives.

Now you're changing the argument. Originally it was about the time that the organism had outside of the womb, but now it looks like you completely abandoned that line of reasoning. Am I to understand that you conceded on that point? But to tackle your new argument, you're wrong, a baby right after being born is still connected to the mother via the umbilical cord. Do you think it's okay to smash the baby's head against the wall as long as the umbilical cord is still intact?

The rules of classical logic are not subjective.

If we decide something to be moral that directly contradicts the rest of our morality, our morality becomes inconsistent and illogical and thus can be criticized objectively.

That's completely tangential. I fail to see how adoption accessibility should have any sway on whether it's okay to murder a child or not.
>But not in the sense that they have to be carried inside the mother's womb.
Third trimester children can survive outside of the womb. Am I to understand that you don't support abortion in the third trimester? You can induce the birth early. Hell, a fetus as young as 21-weeks has survived. Which makes it so that the killing is unjustified, making it again a murder.
>Then why do all mothers at my workplace complain about health issues that began right after delivery?
Is this a studied phenomenon? It's possible that a woman feels under the weather for some time afterwards, but feeling under the weather because of performing guardianship duties for your offspring doesn't give you the right to murder them instead. I'm not convinced of the prevalence of serious complications on the basis of anecdotal evidence. I could just as easily tell you that I know so many mothers who are doing great health-wise, and that your sample is biased and unrepresentative, and you'd be none the wiser.

Classical logic does not apply to philosophical concepts like morality. Moral paradoxes are evidence of this. All we can do is argue for different points of view. Anyone that tries to argue for an objective stance on philosophy is playing a dangerous game. Also, using past judgments to decide what is moral is circular.

Maybe you disagree. Picture this: a doctor concludes that a mother is likely to die during pregnancy, but her safety is nearly guaranteed with an abortion. Is it right to kill the baby to save the mother?

>A cord meant to be torn.
I don't know why you're introducing the idea of purpose to naturally occurring phenomena. Purpose requires intention behind the creation, and I reject that idea as an atheist. We may observe that a mechanism enables another mechanism but to say that there's purposeful design behind it, that's getting into theology.
>The vitality of the baby no longer depends on the mother's body.
Babies still depend of their parents' bodies performing actions to keep them alive and raising them until they're 18. They're effectively enslaved. Why is it any different whether the child is in the woman or not? If a born baby was put back into the woman, in a way that poses no danger to the woman's life or health, and in a way that enables the baby to be taken out without harm to the baby, would you now be allowed to kill it instead? Seems like a massive "loophole" to just genocide unwanted young children.
>It was never about time outside the uterus. It was about getting out of the uterus at all
Let me remind you what was originally said (>>81501227):
>Yeah but they have lived in total darkness so far. They don't know life, and can't fear death.
The original point put forth the idea that whether or not a life is worthy of moral consideration is contingent on the experiences gathered outside the womb, so it was in fact about the time spent outside of the womb, so don't try to retcon what was said. But that's a charitable reading, if you in fact meant literally that living in darkness, not being afraid of death, or not knowing life (whatever that means if we don't accept it as meaning "experiences gathered outside of the womb") is sufficient to have someone killed, then that also applies to many people who were born, making you effectively in support of genociding them, if you want to be consistent.

Nothing to do with what I've said. I'm pointing out incongruences.
>Picture this: a doctor concludes that a mother is likely to die during pregnancy, but her safety is nearly guaranteed with an abortion. Is it right to kill the baby to save the mother?
I'll flesh out your argument. The baby is healthy, above 32 weeks of gestation, and is equally likely to survive as the mother would be in the counter procedure - this would never happen for a number of reasons, but let's go with it.

Aborting the child would not be justified under my ethical framework for the same reason forcibly harvesting your organs to save 3 other people wouldn't. What type of doctor do you really want - someone who would literally throw you under a bus to save 2 other people, or someone with consistent ethics?

Alright then. What if the baby is guaranteed to be non-viable? It won't live more than a minute after birth because it has one lung and a facial deformity that makes breathing impossible.

My point is that if it was possible to have an objective answer, then it would be infinitely complex. I don't think that it is impossible to make a good argument against abortion, but I believe that an objective answer does not exist.

Any adult can keep a baby alive with a bottle of cow's milk even. Doesn't have to be the mother. You are going beyond the point. Before birth, the baby is literally a little parasite that completely depends on the mother's body to survive. The unborn baby is not their own self, they can't breathe yet. Their life is tethered to another being. Everything changes after birth

You're projecting your own inability to be consistent onto others.

It's pretty simple. If fetuses are alive and are considered moral agents, and we agree that homicide needs to be justified, you must now justify killing the fetus.

Killing a person to save someone else isn't justified outside of defense. If we indulged in this line of thinking, it would necessarily lead to the redistribution of organs and all sorts of outcomes most people would agree are not desirable.

We are making a clear exception to our moral norms to make women feel better about abortion - it is inconsistent, it is illogical. Abortion is not defense unless the mother was raped because they caused the pregnancy to happen. There is no justification under non-aggression ethics - it is murder. If I put a gun to your mother's head and tell you to punch me, it isn't self-defense if I shoot you, that would be stupid. It's the same causal chain for a pregnancy.

>the baby is literally a little parasite
Except it's the same species as the host, which makes it young, not a parasite, and even if it were, parous women outlive nulliparous women, so it would be a symbiote and the relationship would be mutualist, not parasitic.

The main experience being getting outside the womb. Doesn't matter if you put the newborn baby in a sensory deprivation chamber for its whole life. If baby got out, baby gets rights. That's how it is in practice. Unborn babies don't get documents or registration until after birth. It's birth certificate, not conception certificate.

Sure. But we're still enslaving the mother and the father to be responsible for the child being fed. I would argue if it's only possible for you to do the ethically correct thing, it doesn't absolve you of the responsibility to do it, if anything it puts pressure on you to do it. We wouldn't accept this in any other sort of scenario. If only you had the ability to push a button to save person, in what world would the fact that only you can press it absolve you of the responsibility for not pressing it? But this all of course hinges on the assumption that the action is an ethically necessary one.
>Before birth, the baby is literally a little parasite that completely depends on the mother's body to survive.
Not once it's viable. And it can be viable as early as the 21st week. Are you against elective abortion past that point? Let's say that the woman's life is not in danger and the fetus doesn't have a deformity making it brain-dead.
>The unborn baby is not their own self, they can't breathe yet.
If a person is on a ventilator, does it make it okay to murder them?
>Their life is tethered to another being.
Yes, another being, but not a random being, a being that imbued with an ethical obligation of taking care of the child by the virtue of being their guardian. The same obligation that makes it ethically necessary for that being to be enslaved to taking care of the child until they reach adulthood. I don't know why women should be granted a special privileged to just kill their dependent instead. Of course this all hinges on the idea that the fetus is already worthy of ethical consideration, ergo a human.
>Everything changes after birth

How is the redistribution of organs not desirable? Can you seriously say that an "undesirable outcome" can be part of your "grand, objective critique" without noticing how ridiculously subjective all of this is? Your ethics are built on subjectivity. You even clarify that you operate under "moral norms", as though your ethical framework is the only way to analyze the morality of abortion. What if our moral norms are full of it? (Personally, I believe they are).

The truth is that our morality is never translated into policy. Our laws are a twisted burlesque of the ethics you tout. This hyperfixation on abortion bothers me, as even a fool can see through our charade of a justice system. Surely we can focus on less contentious, more damning examples of inconsistency in our laws, right?

Again, I don't disagree with you. Yet, certainty is foolish.

>If baby got out, baby gets rights.
My point is that there's no good ethical reason for this to be the standard. What matters to me is the human consciousness. Once the best medical evidence points to it possibly being present within a fetus, that's the point at which I believe it should be considered as a human with rights. And the earliest point for that is when the "hardware" is in place, which is when the thalamic radiations connect to the prefrontal cortex, which happens the earliest at the 20th week of gestation for a healthy pregnancy. After that the mother has the ethical obligation to take care of the child, effectively enslaving her and her husband to taking care of them (or the people who take over the guardianship role afterwards) until the kid is an adult, as long as it doesn't place an undue burden on her, so if the pregnancy has the potential to kill her and it's impossible to remove the child without killing it, it should be okay to abort it, but the child's death should be treated as the death of any other human being. And if a woman aborts a healthy kid just because, she and the people responsible should be tried for murder.
>That's how it is in practice.
People were also genocided countless times throughout human history in practice. Just because something happens doesn't mean that it's okay.
>Unborn babies don't get documents or registration until after birth.
So if a born person doesn't have documents or registration, is it okay to kill them?
>It's birth certificate, not conception certificate.
If a person doesn't have a birth certificate, is it okay to kill them? Also I fail to see what conception has to do with anything. I don't believe a fetus that's not capable of having a conscious experience is worthy of moral consideration. Can be aborted for any reason as far as I'm concerned.

The only cycle I loved more than obstetrics was anesthesiology, but I couldn't live without seeing my mothers giving birth

It isn't consistent. Now explain why we shouldn't redistribute organs. Make it objective, please. Otherwise, you only have a subjective answer -- "not that there's anything wrong with that."

I'm sorry, stranger. I've tried explaining that I agree with you. My point of contention is merely your level of confidence in your answer. For what it is worth, I will try to argue for more consistency in our laws to match the ethics that that they are meant to uphold.

Have a good day.

You can do a fellowship after your residency. It's similar; shit pay, shit hours, do not recommend.
>Are you training to become a full licensed gynecologist/obstetrician?
Nah, I'm family med. I can make $300 an hour doing an obstetrics shift as a fellow with no on-call requirements. There is basically no point doing this unless you have prior surgical experience, though.

I think there are things like even freedom to not be a slave that are suspended when it comes to raising children until they are adults. I think if carrying a healthy child (so already worthy of moral consideration past the 20th week) doesn't impose an undue burden on the mother (risk of death or serious injury), she has an ethical obligation to carry it to term as the guardian of the child and as the only guardian that can to do it at that time (similarly if the father is home alone with the kids and the kids are hungry, he'd be the one ethically obligated to feed the kids as the only person that can do it). Otherwise it's a bit weird to me, that it's okay to suspend the fundamental liberal rights you have in service of raising your kid after birth, but not before the birth, when the thing that makes the child worthy of ethical consideration happens before birth, as I explained earlier.
>I bet you wouldn't like anyone telling you what yo do with your body for the next 9 months.
When I have a kid, I'm enslaved to it for 18 years. Toiling away providing for it. Raising it, feeding it, clothing it, etc. I don't see having to carry it to term from 20th week onward for a few weeks until delivery as a burden that's somehow greater than that to the point that special privileges have to be granted to the mother.

But you're still a physician, nearly a trained surgeon, training to be an obstetrician?
Not gonna lie, I always use the day I'll get my license as a deadline to leave this god forsaken shithole and never come back. I have far too much to study and a lot of work to do and money to make to ever waste time in this bin again.
If I catch myself wasting time here after being an actual physician just like you, I'm eating a bullet. It's a shame. Aren't you ashamed? I'd be.

You're allowed to do whatever your hospital privileges say you can do. If you only do FM > OB, most hospitals won't take you, you just don't clock enough surgeries in most programs. If you have prior surgical experience, like an RCS membership and extensive training records, you'll have more options.
>Why exactly are you doing this?
It's chill for the money and I enjoy the work. As for FM, I'm an IMG. FM was just easier to get into.

You can use the term "taking care of the child" instead of "raising". It doesn't change my argument.

How does that work? Is it like a residency for surgery? Or is it less than a residency? Are you a surgeon in practice? So with that, you were able to get into the obstetrician fellowship? Didn't you like working as a regular FM?
Sorry for all the questions, it just sounds so fragmented compared to how it works in my country. So hospitals will let you work doing surgeries in practice even without a surgical residency?
In my country, you finish med school, you apply for one of the five big areas of residency (family medicine, clinical, surgery, pediatrics, obstetrics/gynecology) and you just run with it.

If I can't leave this place after becoming a physician than what will I do? Shitpost forever? This addiction is terrible for my mental health, shitposting is like a drug for me, I want to quit so bad but can't.

>How does RCS membership work
You apply once you complete core surgical training in the UK; it's well-recognized internationally.
>So hospitals will let you work doing surgeries in practice even without a surgical residency?
Yes, albeit with a limited scope of practice. Usually elective c-sections and outpatient clinics. I won't be doing gyne; ideally, I shouldn't be doing emergency work but shit happens.
>Didn't you like working as a regular FM?
I enjoy FM more than I thought I would, but the pay is shit and I like the hospital environment. I'll have the best of both worlds - no on-calls, fewer emergencies, and I can scrap surgery and do FM when my knees pile in.
>it just sounds so fragmented compared to how it works in my country
I'm an IMG, so it's more fucked than usual. I did 5 years of postgraduate training/work before moving. Usually, you pick a residency and stick with it; it's fairly straightforward.

Any idea what direction you're going in, or too early to tell?

Loved obstetrics but every obstetrician I've ever met advised me against the career. Not paid as much as other areas, emergency like routine, unpredictable time for labours, highest rate of lawsuits, sleepless nights, all things that impact quality of life. I love watching women giving birth, I feel it's very emotional and even spiritual, but the main problem is that obstetrics/gynecology is one thing, there's no doing one without the other, and I have absolute 0 interest in vaginas and all the gyneco part.
I fell in love hard with anesthesiology. I loved giving spinal anesthesia, I absolutely love to intubate patients, it's my favorite thing in the whole medicine world I've known, but it's the hardest residency to get inside: the highest competition, the highest grade. As you can see by me shitposting on a sunday instead of studying, sometimes I doubt I'm hardcore enough to pass the admissional test. It's one standardized test for the whole country, and it will take 2/3 years of unrelenting dedication to pass.
Still that's what I want in the bottom of my heart. Wish me luck.

So residency there lasts more than 4 years? Damn bitch. That's a lot. It's very prestigious too, being UK and everything. I'm from the third world I'm sure my diploma would be a joke compared to yours. I bet you're a pretty smart fella if you made it there.
So you're a surgeon basically? Like do you carry the surgeon title or is there some additional bureaucracy to complete for that? Here after you finish the residency, you automatically gain the national title of that particular specialty.
Look sorry about being rude to you earlier. We clearly diverge on our views regarding the whole fetus genocide thing, but let me tell you something

Just do what I did. Only gyne you'll see is the usual primary care slop, i.e., stop using soap on your labia and have some emollient.

Good luck with anesthetics. If you don't get it first time around, hopefully you can locum in something fun. Gonna head to bed, night.
