20. Baloney. And humane to whom?Isn't this an insult to those women who don't
guilt about having excercised what was just a "'choice " to them? What about women who don't want to be mothers? And what about those who want this to be viewed a just a "medical procedure?" Do you think men view a vasectomy as a "difficult and tragic" choice? A hysterectomy could be considered a "difficult and tragic" choice too, yet the government is getting involved. Yet. This "difficult and tragic" emphasis, creates shame and a sense of wrong associated with "choice".
