Thank you, Jim. I am 35 weeks pregnant with our third baby and it is unimaginable to me to take this little one kicking me now and yank it out feet first to kill it.

Feminists have built up quite a nice, convincing argument that it is all about "control" -- that no one else should have "control" over a woman's body except for that woman...and for a while, early on, I believed that mythology. Then, it struck me that women do have control if they would only exercise it....by saying no.

Yet too many young women still believe that equality lies somehow behind a bedroom door...never quite understanding that biology trumps that little pipe dream.

It disturbs me, Jim, that so many innocents have been sacrificed on the altar of convenience or at the hand of a well-circulated set of myths.

Women do have control over their bodies. It's the baby's body that should be kept from harm. It's not a womens body insider her, it is her baby's body, a new person. There is no doubt about this, but the spin persists.
