re: #216 Vicious Babushka

It’s never about compassion for the woman. Ever.

Compassion is acknowledging that there are so many different reasons that women make this decision. Compassion is supporting women regardless of their choice.

Compassion is not trying to guilt or shame women into having a child. Compassion is not adding extra unnecessary steps to the process in order to make it more difficult. Compassion is not restricting access to information and birth control, making it more likely that an unintended pregnancy may result - which by far disproportionately affects the woman.
