I was not being negative towards you, at least i wasn't trying to be.
regardless of lack of unity it is still a women's issue because women have to go through it and the pregnancy not men. and women will continue to go through it whether it is legal, illegal regulated or not. the question is whether it will be in a hospital or an alley with a coat hanger, the latter sounding a lot uglier than anything that happens in a hospital.
and i am not saying that every unwanted pregnancy should end in a pregnancy, but i think the way to make that happen is, for starters, some of the things that i listed above. if there isn't any kind of support, both community and monetary, for young women going through a pregnancy and afterwards, then how can one even begin to ask them to raise a child?
