are beyond comprehension.

I have never spoken about my abortion before this, but it really is long past time to do so. I'm currently 74 years old, long past potential childbearing or needing an abortion. I have one son, no daughters, so it would be easy to ignore the ongoing need to defend abortion rights.

Oh, and I have had similar conversations with women who think all abortions lead to bad consequences. None of those women have ever had an abortion themselves. They just buy into the idiotic propaganda of the anti-abortion people. As I often say, If you don't believe in abortion, don't have one.
