A common and tiring accusation abortion advocates hurl at\u00a0the pro-life movement is that those who oppose abortion do so because they seek to judge or control women. Pro-life men are especially under attack. Live Action News contributor Adam Peters came across<\/a> a Twitter conversation full of typical pro-abortion talking points. In it, a woman claimed “men fear sexually active women & the power that has,” after sharing her concern that if women didn’t have access to abortion they’d be “more fearful to take lovers” because the lack of abortion availability would “undermine sexual freedom.”\u00a0It’s one thing to involve oneself in the abortion debate to protect the lives of innocent preborn children\u00a0and their\u00a0mothers, who may be emotionally or physically harmed from their abortions. It’s another thing to spend so much time concerning\u00a0oneself with the idea\u00a0that “men fear sexually active women” — causing many to\u00a0wonder what kinds of men, if any, these abortion advocates know.<\/p>\n

The abortion industry\u00a0sells the abortion as a quick and easy fix\u00a0for the problem of\u00a0an unplanned pregnancy. But if a woman suffers afterwards as a result of her abortion (as many do<\/a>), that industry\u00a0isn’t there to help her. Instead, her negative experience is\u00a0dismissed and written off<\/a>\u00a0by those who claim to be pro-woman. Abortion advocates\u00a0don’t want to listen to<\/a>\u00a0women who regret their abortions. It is instead\u00a0the pro-life movement which offers healing programs and support groups for post-abortive women, like\u00a0Rachel’s Vineyard<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Silent No More<\/a>,\u00a0as well as secular resources<\/a>. Where are the “pro-woman,” pro-abortion advocates when the “quick and easy fix” goes horribly wrong?<\/p>\n
