Huh? Children ARE the issue. They are the ONLY issue. It’s not about what the adults want.

If it were ONLY about children, there wouldn't be any abortion at all.

I can't force you to face the world of realpolitik, but I'm not about to join in your utopian fantasies.

You have tried every dodge available, but the one thing you will not do is countenance women taking sole responsibility for the exclusive prerogatives they exercise right now.

Women are not solely responsible for children coming into existence. This is 50/50.

So the responsibility for said child should also be 50/50.

The fact that it has never been that way is how we arrived at the culture of abortion in the first place.

Abortion is merely a convenient method. It is not the root of the problem. The root of the problem is the refusal of people to acknowledge the facts of procreation. It’s a 50/50 proposition and always has been.

Everything after that has been an exercise in assigning unequal responsibility (or no responsibility) to the adults involved. Abortion is a result of that age-old excercise, not the cause.
