I disagree with you there; the fear comes from within the woman herself, when she is in an untenable position. I know of nothing like pregnancy, in that it is the best thing in the world if you want it, and the worst thing in the world if you don't. There is simply no in-between, for most women. Addressing the things that make it untenable can help to obviate the need for abortion, IMHO.

There is fear that resides there, to be certain. But the pro-abortion forces work to bring that fear to a fevered pitch and do not allow things like "facts" to get in the way of fear.

A 10% chance of becoming barren? Not worth noting when your senior year of college is in jeopardy!

A 42% increased chance of major depression in the next decade? Not worth noting when you might have to tell your Dad that Rick and you have been sleeping together!

The fear does not orginate with the pro-abortion people, but they do their darndest to make sure that the fear is the driving force for the decision.

Hmmm I don't think the fact of pregancy is "untenable" in itself

I am a little confused with your postings here

Are you for or against abortion?

Then don't partake in intercourse if you can't handle the possible results.
