It’s one hundred percent the exact same thing as not taking a s***. Or it isn’t. It is or it isn’t. It’s either taking a s*** or it’s killing a baby. It’s only one of those two things. It’s no other things. So if you didn’t like hearing that it’s like taking a s***, you think it’s like killing a baby. That’s the only other one you get to have.’ ”.

    "No woman wants an abortion as she wants an ice cream cone or a Porsche. She wants an abortion as an animal caught in a trap wants to gnaw off its own leg." -Frederica Mathewes-Green. A few common reason why women get an abortion are financial instability and negative impact on the mother’s mental health and/or career/education.
