Yes, some women might become pregnant through an emotionally abusive relationship, but the facts are that such situations are simply not reflective of abortions as a whole as they represent a minority. In other words, fringe occurrences shouldn't be used as arguing points as they don't adequately represent the majority.
The bottom line here is that most abortions are performed not because of rape and/or physical/emotional abuse, but because the woman does not
feel like being a mother. It'd be a cold day in hell before a man can skip fatherhood because he doesn't
feel like it.

If a woman conceives and does not want to be a mother, she's pro-choice.
If a man conceives and does not want to be a father, he's a dead-beat no good worthless turd.

That about sums it up
