If men really did \u201ccare deeply,\u201d would they encourage the mothers of their children to end the lives they created together? Would women feel the need to abort if they had more support from these men?<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><i>Cosmopolitan <\/i>portrays a man\u2019s involvement in supporting abortion as a sort of heroic act:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>And yet men rarely are asked about their experience \u2014 even though they likely bought the pregnancy test, shielded a girlfriend from protesters, held her hand during the procedure, or cared for her afterward.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Saying that men \u201clikely\u201d do these things downplays the stark reality. Unchoice.com has a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theunchoice.com\/pdf\/FactSheets\/ForcedAbortions.pdf\">special report on \u201cForced Abortion in America\u201d<\/a> from the <a href=\"http:\/\/afterabortion.org\/\">Elliot Institute,<\/a> an organization dedicated to research and education on the impact of abortion. As the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theunchoice.com\/pdf\/FactSheets\/ForcedAbortionFactSheet.pdf\">fact sheet<\/a> sums up, \u201cHusband or boyfriend persuaded me\u201d is listed towards the top for \u201cReasons women give for having abortions.\u201d It is also mentioned that \u201cIn 95% of all cases, the male partner played a central role in the decision, 45% of men interviewed at abortion clinics recalled urging abortion, including 37% of married men. In the above study, men justified being the primary decision maker, regarding the abortion.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While only one of the four couples <i>Cosmopolitan <\/i>featured broke up, this is the more common outcome. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.texasrighttolife.com\/about\/145\/Abortion-Myths\">Texas Right to Life<\/a> mentions that research from Emily Milling, who studied over 400 couples who had an abortion, found that 70% of relationships ended within one month of the abortion. Abortion does not often, and in fact rarely, strengthens a relationship, but rather tears it apart.<\/p>\n<p>The piece references people sharing their experiences, yet there is no mention of groups which invite women and men to share their abortions to find healing, like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.silentnomoreawareness.org\/regret\/\">Silent No More<\/a>. <i>Cosmopolitan <\/i>instead references Cecile Richards, CEO of Planned Parenthood, giving her take on the need for stories:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201c\u2026The more people tell their personal stories the better. It gets these conversations out of the political realm and into people&#8217;s real lives.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It is curious that Richards talks about getting \u201cthese conversations out of the political realm\u2026\u201dconsidering her own <a href=\"http:\/\/liveaction.org\/research\/planned-parenthood-president-cecile-richardshttp:\/liveaction.org\/research\/planned-parenthood-president-cecile-richards\">political experience<\/a>, particularly <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lifenews.com\/2012\/07\/16\/planned-parenthood-prez-we-worked-with-obama-for-three-years\/\">with<\/a> the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lifenews.com\/2012\/10\/03\/planned-parenthood-president-to-personally-campaign-for-obama\/\">current administration<\/a>. Planned Parenthood has also <a href=\"http:\/\/www.plannedparenthoodaction.org\/about-us\/\">become quite political<\/a> and spent <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lifenews.com\/2012\/11\/07\/planned-parenthood-spent-15-million-to-re-elect-obama\/\">$15 million<\/a> on Obama\u2019s re-election.<\/p>\n<p>Two of the women featured in <i>Cosmopolitan<\/i> suggest they will still have children. Cindy ends her story by saying she wants to be a mom \u201cone day.\u201d To Cindy, \u201cthe right time [is] when the idea of being pregnant gets me excited.\u201d Brittany closes that she and Brandon are \u201cready to start a family.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Children are not only conceived when couples are \u201cready to start a family\u201d or \u201cwhen the idea of being pregnant gets [the mother] excited.\u201d And, abortion, especially multiple ones, as Cindy has had, <a href=\"\/news\/three-things-that-may-happen-to-you-during-an-abortion\/\">may make women infertile<\/a>, according to <a href=\"\/news\/three-things-that-may-happen-to-you-during-an-abortion\/\">an article<\/a> from JustMommies.<\/p>\n<p>The last story features a couple who aborted their child diagnosed with a mass on his neck. Emily claims she \u201cknew that an abortion was the most humane thing for baby Aaron Jack\u201d and her husband Dave recalls her saying \u201cI don\u2019t want him to suffer.\u201d Abortion was not humane for Aaron Jack, as it never is for any baby. He was condemned to suffer a painful death.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding their daughter, Hannah, Dave mentions \u201c[s]he would not be here if we hadn&#8217;t lost AJ.\u201d It is unfair, to both children, and illogical, to justify the existence of one child with the termination of the other.<\/p>\n<p>The couple ends their story as <i>Cosmopolitan<\/i> began, with politics, as Emily tries to argue politics \u201cshows a misunderstanding of why people choose abortions\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>No matter the reason for an abortion, the fact never changes that this \u201cchoice\u201d results in the death of another human being. Abortion is a moral issue. It has become political within the limited confines of <i>Roe, <\/i>with campaign platforms dedicated to upholding or overturning it. Those brave few in public office protecting life do so to ensure that all of us are granted by the inalienable right to life, as without this right, all others are meaningless. Those who advocate for abortion have twisted our political system and what constitutes a right.<\/p>\n<p>While Emily also claims politics shows \u201ca lack of respect for women,\u201d abortion always shows a lack of respect for women. Abortion advocates continue to portray it in such a manner that ignores what abortion is\u2014the death of a human being\u2014and the pain and suffering it causes women. <i>Cosmopolitan <\/i>may think it is examining the issue from a careful perspective, but in reality falls short in examining its true tragic nature.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cosmopolitan attempts to address abortion from a complex standpoint with its January 21 piece \u201cHow Our Abortion Changed Our\u00a0Relationship.\u201d Although the abortions had various effects for the four couples, the end result remained that a baby&#8217;s life was lost.
