Phrase
Are these two sentences correct:
a) "It's not up to us to judge when a woman becomes pregnant, whether she's married or single."
b) "It's not for us to judge when a woman becomes pregnant, whether she's married or single."
Top answer
Both bold parts are correct, but to my eye the sentence as a whole reads unsatisfactorily. I think you are talking about when it is right or proper or appropriate for a woman to become pregnant? The "right or proper or appropriate" aspect is not clear enough in your sentence.
