Stella Morabito (via The Federalist)<\/p><\/div>\n

I recall my classmate explaining how hard she tried to find a way to make things work out \u2013 to keep the baby and still be able to study and travel with the fellowship she had just been awarded. But there\u2019s no room for choices like that in our abortion culture.<\/em><\/p>\n

Pro-abortion women cannot and will not help out women who hope for such a happy outcome. Yet they have no problem telling men that they need to support abortion if they want to keep having sex. This was the essence of Elizabeth Plank\u2019s\u00a0article in mic.com<\/a>\u00a0urging men to support Planned Parenthood because: \u201cIn a word, sex.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
In the end, the only \u201cchoice\u201d pro-aborts offer an unintentionally pregnant woman is this one: have an abortion or give up any dreams of career fulfillment.<\/em><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Likewise,\u00a0Katha Pollitt recently argued<\/a>\u00a0in the\u00a0New York Times\u00a0that more men need to speak up for abortion out of their own self-interest: \u201cWhere are the men grateful not to be forced into fatherhood?\u201d she asks.<\/em><\/p>\n

I can\u2019t think of a more anti-woman stance.<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
\n

It basically tells men to support abortion on demand because otherwise women would be less likely to have recreational sex with them. Worse, the man could end up in a (gasp!) relationship. It also clarifies that unrestricted abortion is largely about putting men in a better position to pressure their pregnant sex partners to \u201cget rid of it.\u201d Meanwhile, we\u2019re all supposed to look at it as entirely the woman\u2019s choice. This is manipulative garbage, and at some level, women know this and resent it.<\/em><\/p>\n
