Your questions highlight an important balance between democratic representation and respecting the direct impact certain policies have on specific groups. In a democracy, everyone does have the right to voice their opinion on issues that shape society, particularly when they impact family members, loved ones, or community standards. For example, many men rightly feel a responsibility to advocate for policies that protect the rights and well-being of women and girls in their lives.

However, centering voices of those most directly affected by policies like abortion access doesn’t mean eliminating others’ input—it’s about prioritizing the lived experiences and needs of those who face the immediate impact of these policies. While a 60-year-old woman or a man may not personally experience pregnancy, they can still be informed and empathetic allies, and their advocacy can help shape understanding. The difference, though, is that someone with direct experience may offer insights about the physical, emotional, and social realities of abortion that others wouldn’t intuitively understand, even with empathy or education.

The goal isn’t to exclude anyone from the conversation but to amplify the perspectives of those whose lives are most impacted. For example, while anyone can understand the need for healthcare, we look to patients with chronic illness to help guide policy because their needs are specific and often nuanced in ways that aren’t apparent from the outside.

It’s a complex balance in a democratic society, but acknowledging those most affected—and ensuring their voices are centered—helps prevent policies from being shaped by perspectives that may lack a full understanding of the issue. In this way, it’s not about excluding voices but ensuring we’re fully informed by those who are on the front lines of these experiences.

This cat is just muddying the waters with excessive verbal husk.  It's a logical fallacy called equivocation.  Bottom line is black people talk shit on white people all the time, but white people are not allowed to say anything about black people.  Got it.
