Well, here's a new twist to pro choice. Fetus tisues used for anti aging products. Ethical, of course!

I'm glad I am for pro LIFE.
What do you think?

I am all for looking younger, but at this price, I have to say it's sick. Whatever next, genital lipstick.

That was disturbing enough that I actually regret having read it. I'm actually a little nauseated by it.
I'm reluctantly in resigned favor of legal EARLY abortions; but if they have to happen the least anyone could do is have a modicum of respect for remains.
When it's a much wanted fetus that is miscarried people sometimes have them buried in little boxes (sometimes in a cemetery or other area designed for that purpose), or have some kind of little memorial "thing" for them. Apparently, when it's an unwanted fetus anything, including anti-aging skin products, goes.
It's just another version of the difference between living children who are wanted, treasured, and protected by their parents and those who are not. With children who have parents who wanted them "the world" would often not dare to mistreat them. With the ones who have parents who don't care (or don't care as much as they should) it can be kind of "anything goes". It seems there's always someone out to exploit children, living or dead, for their own money-making and self-centered reasons. Some people would say, "What's the difference if they're dead anyway?" As someone who has had a miscarriage myself, I know I wouldn't have wanted even one cell of my baby used for beauty cream and that baby would be 29 years old if it had lived, so I'm long past the throws of the emotion that happens for a while after miscarriage). What the hell kind of "beauty" would that such ugliness get anybody anyway?

I'm wondering why the tissue is not being used for stem cells. Is it easier to use the tissue for beauty products but not for research?

Well said Lisa. I never thought of it that way, but you are right. Who is there to protect these unborn children. They call them Fetus, but they are still human.

It is another example of de-humanizing our babies.

But isn't that the point of contention? I don't think Pro-abortionists look at it as human or embryo.

You're right again, it's either a fertilized egg, zygote or fetus. None of which counts as a baby, it's sad.

yes, the real contention actually is the question, when does life begin? Thats why there is a need to support contraceptive use around the world to prevent maternal deaths due to abortion and abortion itself. maternal deaths due to abortion is the leading cause of maternal death in developing countries,

I do not want to wear any beauty products that contain any human or animal matter.
Thankfully, I don't wear makeup very often and go for the natural products.- 76

It's all gross. If we knew half of what went into these products we would never buy anything.
