How do you know "most women have regrets." In my experience, most women don't.

Perhaps in your experience. Or they say they don't regret it to defend what they did.
After working in a Pregnancy Counseling Center with women who had one or more abortions I can tell you that most of them did have regrets. Those that had had multiple ones weren't so upset because they were pretty hardened to the experience. As one girl said, "If abortion is so great then why can't I talk about it after it happened." She couldn't because it was such an awful thing and she was ashamed.
That is why many clinics offer Post Abortion Counciling to the woman, any family or friends (including men) who supported the abortion and now regret it or who didn't support it and now grieve over their loss.

The girl I am currently dating (VERY casually) says that she was devastated by her abortion. For a year she couldn't walk into a mall and see the kids running around or she would break down. When she (some people never learn, although maybe she has now) got pregnant again, her boyfriend pressured her to have another abortion, but she refused----she said that she could never go through that again no matter what.

In my experience and in my practice, most women do regret their abortions.

Spend some time counseling women trying to cope years down the road - thats one way you know.

Fortunately for humanity, you don't represent most women.
