Naked misogyny seems to have crawled out from under a rock lately in North America. It has gained 'legitimacy' in some circles as God's Will, & other bulletproof, Teflon coated, freedom of slur phrases.

If men got pregnant, abortion would be a sacrament.

How many Right to Life groups support better child care, education, diet, & freedom from poverty for these children AFTER they are born?
Should I expect these same folks, (who strangely seem to be mostly male) actively supporting a better social safety net for the mothers, & the children that they want to demand be born?
They are strangely silent on these issues, except in their unconditional condemnation of the poor, locally as a drain on their tax dollars.

(universally,& globally the poorest of the poor are women & their children, & elderly women.)

I don't think that an affluent powerful Canadian has the right to tell to tell a rape victim who contracted HIV/AIDS during a gang rape in a 3rd world country what she should do about a pregnancy. It's Not his or her business unless that person personally is willing to Directly care for both the mother & adopt the child if she dies, or is unable to care for herself & her child. & Probably Not even then.

If you want to remove choices, please put your money were your mouth is, & support these children in life after their birth! A gift to a charity is not the same thing. Get working on solving poverty with your community & in the World at large. If you won't/can't do that, then Please SHUT UP!!
