However, I am highly against using abortion as a method of birth control.

I know someone who has had 5 abortions in the last 4 years because - 'she didnt like using the pill or condoms'

I have no respect for that at all.
But do you realize how rare it is statistically for women to do that? That majority of women who have abortions, have only one in their lifetime; a smaller though not insignificant percentage have two. The number then drops to a small minority that have more than two abortions. Why focus on extremes?

If men could get pregnant, we wouldn't even be debating this topic. It would be a given that it would be legal and accessible.
