I'm just answering the original question.

Abortions are like divorces. One is understandable. Two means your judgment and responsibility are questionable, unless the first one happened when you were _very_ young. Three means you don't know what you're doing and probably never well.

Oh yeah, this goes for guys as well. It's _your_ abortion, too, even if somebody else is having it for you.

As for whether it should be legal or not, my 80-year-old fundamentalist mother _hates_ abortion -- but wouldn't outlaw it. Because she came from a time when it wasn't, and saw women have their lives ruined for having a kid out of wedlock, or even dying in back-alley abortions.

Because -- face it. All legalizing abortion did was make it available to -everybody.- The rich have always had access to safe abortions through their connections, and always will -- even if it's outlawed for the rest of us.
