I do not mean the following to say that abortion is anything less than an unconscionable horror, same as murder is.

But are the poorer statistics for avoiding breast cancer associated with having an abortion, mirrored by those who adopt out their newborns and don’t breast feed?

One needs to be a bit careful about the questions one might imply.

The Susan M. Komen co-option of the pink ribbon is a worse issue, because she’s not shy about cheering PP, the turd in an otherwise reasonable punch bowl.

I encourage all conservative women to have three or more children not for health but to dominate the Left by sheer numbers alone.

My husband didn’t want any more children, after having been married before and having one child from that marriage... needless to say it was hellacious for him to deal with the ongoing shenanigans from his ex.
What do you do when the other half doesn’t want kids? Poke holes in the prophylactics? Ex wife did that to my husband when he was still with her... would’ve wrecked our (new and just- started ) relationship if I had tried that!!!!!

You shouldn’t have married him if you wanted children and he didn’t.

What a shame that people are largely unaware of this.

I’ll admit I own a few of those goofy pink ribbon items, but that goes back to the days when I was ignorant. Now, I avoid that like the plague. I also avoid business that give to PP. And my daughter will NEVER be part of the Girl Scouts who also deny the dangers of OC & abortion, have string ties to PP, and are essentially an arm of the UN by promoting their children’s rights crap.

People have no idea how entrenched this evil is in our culture. SGK & this pink ribbon garbage is only the tip of the iceberg.

My understanding is that carrying a pregnancy to term lowers the risk of breast cancer, and breastfeeding lowers the rusk even further. Having an abortion (if my recollection is correct) raises the risk by 30%

I think that conversation should’ve happened before the vows.
