A rant about Rhian Ramos’ alleged abortion of her and Mo Twister’s would’ve-been-baby.
It’s her body. She can do whatever she wants with it. The abortion wasn’t illegal since it wasn’t done in the Philippines and the act is legal in Singapore. The morality is debatable, yes. Was it wrong? I don’t know. I can’t judge because I haven’t fully formed my opinion on whether life begins at fertilization/implantation/birth. There really is no clear cut answer to that.
From the way Mo Twister’s video went, it seems that Rhian Ramos was pressured into having an abortion because of her situation - her career, her work environment, her family, etc. It’s saddening to think that she was forced into that decision and if she were, it’s probably agonizing for her to look back on it. So people, it doesn’t do anyone any good vilifying her and Mo Twister. You don’t know the real story behind what happened despite Mo Twister’s tell-all video.
If she made that choice herself then it’s still no cause for anyone to call her a murderer. It was legal. It’s her body.
Some of you people act as if you’re sure they had unprotected sex knowing she would definitely get pregnant after. Newsflash! Women can get pregnant even if they’re on contraceptive pills or the guy is wearing a condom. Condoms break, pills don’t work 100%, people slip up. Shit happens. A lot of you will argue that they probably shouldn’t be having sex anyway. Well, that’s really not for you to say.
Some of you have brought up Andi Eigenmann saying that Rhian Ramos should’ve done what Andi did. Choose to bring up the child despite setbacks in her career, etc. They’re the same age, in the same industry, almost exactly in the same situation. If Andi Eigenmann could do it then so could Rhian Ramos! I hate to break it to you but people are different. Despite popular belief, people of the same age do not have the same emotional capacity and maturity. They don’t have the same the same support system no matter how much they appear to. Frankly, you shouldn’t even compare the two.
The point is you have no right to judge Rhian Ramos and Mo Twister that way because you don’t know them. You don’t know the circumstances surrounding their lives, their decisions and their actions.They’re murderers? Yes? No? Maybe. According to the law they aren’t. So shut up and get off your moral high horse.
And to that person who released that video, you are a work of art. Thank you so much for allowing a girl be criticized and insulted for a choice she had the right to make. I wonder how long you debated on it! Really, thinking about how the word abortion would be attached to her name for a long time must’ve made it hard for you, eh? /sarcasm
