...true, so true, the unintended consequence is that babies of all races are dying everyday, but Ms. Sanger meant this genocide to be for people of color

The other thing is that some pro-aborts think abortion HELPS black women because they can achieve more if they aren’t sidelined into caring for an untimely baby. But they need to realize that true achievement can’t be built on a mound of dead babies.

I used to be in favor of abortion “rights.”

But that was many years ago. Then I became convinced that abortion offers a series of insults and defeats to women.

(1) It pathologizes her own body, even when it is doing a natural, healthy, and even impressive thing: producing a new human being.

(2) It makes her sexual wholeness, a source of dread, urging her to be alarmed and react negatively to the fact that she embodies beautifully intact functioning female powers.

(3) It obliterates her bonding with her first child (if it is, as is typical, a would-be first-born that she is abortion), which is disastrously bad karma.

(4) She gets to be abjectly exposed and objectively violated by a man with a knife, she’s sent out bleeding and empty, and she’s supposed to smile and say “What do I feel? Oh, relief, relief.” And then she’ll feel: nothing. A numbness,. And that’s supposed to show it’s all OK.

(5) In the longer term, if she revives inwardly again and works through ambivalence and then remorse, she’ll be mocked, trivialized, and silenced by the so-called “women’s” “movement.”
