We do not have to wear a badge of shame because we all made the choice not to have a child. It is an everyday event and, as a society, we need to learn to understand that.

NO! Society DOES NOT have to condone or "understand" your selfishness.

Virtually every woman I know of my generation has had an abortion

I don't believe it.

Ping.

Accept no responsibility for the fact that I got pregant when it’s so simple to just walk away.

Next comes murdering those who are not able to be cured and their care would cost to much.

Will the next step be that all buled eyed babies or adults are to be eliminated?

[hometoroost]

She’d probably call a soldier a “baby killer” and not bat an eye.

There seems to be no coming together of women in solidarity over abortion. Women unite to help when a battered wife leaves a husband or a wife and mother is abandoned by a husband or lover, but on the issue of abortion there is a resounding silence.

Thats because deep down inside, the vast majority of women KNOW that having an abortion is WRONG. Something knaws at them, its called SHAME, and I say that as someone who is not neccessarily "anti-choice".

We are sometimes made to feel that we are murdering our unborn babies and acting immorally. We are snubbing life – not just life, a baby's life.

Well if the shoe fits...

We don't swap stories over the dinner table. We do not nod in sympathy.

Of course not, mankind (speaking generically of both men and women) likes to hide its own sinfulness. There really is no confusion over the issue of abortion, everyone knows that the 'fetus' is alive and that aborting it is killing a human being. The only difference is that some people care while others don't.

“We are sometimes made to feel that we are murdering our unborn babies and acting immorally.”

That’s because you ARE, you stupid cow.

[Alouette]

The implication is that a woman has got pregnant because she is an irresponsible, selfish slut who doesn't care about the life of her unborn child and cares only for herself.

If the shoe fits...

Lucy Cavendish = Murderer and Slut

Maybe because you are?

[HuntsvilleTxVeteran]

It is not abortion, it is the planned
murder of the most helpless!

[FORTRUTHONLY]

Virtually every woman I know of my generation has had an abortion.

The writes is definitely entitled to her own opinion but she is definitely not entitled to her own facts.

[reg45]

even my committed boyfriend looked surprised when I asked him what he thought we ought to do about my being pregnant

"committed boyfriend" is an oxymoron. If he were truly committed, he would be her husband.

[Question_Assumptions]

The photo caption should read, "Lucy Cavendish with three of her four children lucky enough to not get aborted."

[x]

I am Lucy. I want to succeed as a novelist. I will do anything

[muawiyah]

The ol’gal who wrote that one thinks it strange that some of us want to think of her as a murderer. Of course, I think its strange she wishes to change my mind at this late date.

They chose Mother's Day to publish this.

It figures, it just figures.

One of the interesting things about the Peculiar Institution, v. 2.0, is how every other thing, including feelings and language, must be perverted to let it go on.

[DManA]

Why should rape be a seperate crime and not just simple assault? If the victim gets pregnant just get an abortion. What’s the big deal? /sarcasm.
