@sc: while yes the women I had at mind for that comment arnt the kinda girls you take home to show the folks, i don't think all women who get them are bad, just selfish, and that's not due to poltical or religious reasons it's for personal reasons based on events of my life
From statistics and studies (USA) majority of woman (at least studies from around 2008, 2011) getting abortions are already mothers and adults.
What's selfish is selfish, so unless we know what a person chooses to have a procedure thats usually extremely invasive, harrowing, comes with a lot of societal, religious and peer pressure and judgement and their personal circumstance, what right/entitlement do any of us have to generalize a whole lot of them as selfish? The person getting an abortion could be thinking of the future of their child and whether they can provide for it or not, living people have a natural and normal bias towards living of course so many are just inherently predisposed to thinking life is automatically the best thing (which it is for those alive generally speaking) but at the same time its always more complicated than that. Person getting abortion could be thinking of the child they already have and whether its fair on them as well. Not every parent can support one child let alone two, so often and at least by the statistics thats probably a large factor for those getting an abortion.
Having personal reasons is fine and I can respect that, and think anyone could, but many people including myself don't make decisions or hold views based on personal reasons or experiences, because of how personal experiences by definition work and how well they are applied to everyone else. Or to put another way, personal reasons for specific persons, and non personal reasons (objective knowledge based) for everyone else.
