My Body, My Voice! Women After Abortion

Abortion-experienced women defending the 'right to refuse'

“The more abortion has become entrenched, the more difficult it has become for women to resist the pressure to avail themselves of it.”
 
— MELINDA TANKARD REIST, Giving Sorrow Words
 

My Body, My Voice!
Voice of Experience

 
Both ‘pro-choicers’ and ‘pro-lifers’ claim to speak on behalf of abortion-experienced women. Get up-close-and-personal as women speak for themselves.

Beyond Political
Correctness

 
Is the politically correct view of abortion ‘open minded’ or a ‘no-brainer’?
 
“So far it has been assumed that the only pregnancies which are aborted are accidental ones and the only foetuses destroyed those whose mothers could not bear the thought of their becoming children. In a just world this would be the case, but the world is far from just. Too many women are forced to abort by poverty, by their menfolk, by their parents. Poverty has many faces; it may be the poverty of the young, the unmarried, the student, the unemployed, the female or a combination of these.”
 
— GERMAINE GREER, Sex and Destiny
