Seriously, I expect that even a woman that has had an abortion would respect that she made a choice and others would not make the same one. That would make her pro-choice not pro-abortion.
I don't think that I could even have an abortion, but I respect another woman's right to make that decision for herself. | Interesting. I like it. Now I have a question: You say that you could not have an abortion. Why not.
I'm going to guess you would feel bad about it. Close? Well there's a reason you feel bad about it. So obviously there's something you oppose about the idea of abortion. Now that we've established that, you say you respect someone else's right to choose. But if there is something about abortion you oppose, does it bother you at all that others choose it anyway?
