@M_A_T_1002 @secularprolife More proof: a 2013 study on women who obtained abortions in the second and third trimesters found that most women obtained late-term abortions for financial or social reasons *rather than health concerns.* https://t.co/LZoIc4NiN

Nope. Not wanting to be pregnant isn’t about “convenience”. Very pitiful you have to lie. Also interesting the man who can’t get pregnant just views it as an “inconvenience”. Majority of abortions happen due to not wanting to be pregnant. A major factor

@gellered Seems to me instead of arguing to or not to ban abortions, we should be productive in creating a society where women dont have the desire or need to have an abortion! That would have to be an extremely hard decision to make for any woman! https:
