"[L]last month’s Supreme Court decision upholding the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban
Act marked a milestone for a different argument advanced by anti-abortion
leaders, one they are increasingly making in state legislatures around the
country. They say that abortion, as a rule, is not in the best interest of the
woman; that women are often misled or ill-informed about its risks to their own
physical or emotional health; and that the interests of the pregnant woman and
the fetus are, in fact, the same...."
This is a stupid argument that womyn can't understand a simple medical operation with the help of a doctor. It is honestly unbelievable that these people are claiming that womyn need to be protected from themselves and their doctors this way. I think making abortions illegal is a great idea if this is the case, that way womyn can go to Mexico to get abortions from doctors they think are safe but aren't. The staff won't know or won't tell them what the problems might be, so they will not be able to understand the choice they are making clearly. Yes, take away a safe choice performed by an educated doctor, because womyn can't understand that choice. Sad.
