Let's not pretend that abortion is about the life of the baby. It's all about controlling women. Women are hores, right? Keep your legs closed. If you get pregnant, it's your fault, you have to raise that baby. No IVF for you, men will decide when you get pregnant. No contraception, a man decides if he impregnates you or not. No fault divorce, gone, you will stay married. It's all about control 1 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
