31. I tell them that I'm actually a pro-life person.
I wish that no woman was ever in a position that she had to make such a decision. But until we have birth control that is covered by insurance, and all of us HAVE insurance, "accidents" happen and a lot of women feel that abortion is their only choice. Besides, I really don't have the right to force my religious beliefs on anyone else.


If you get argumentative right off the bat, their eyes glaze over and they totally tune you out. I don't know that I've changed anyone's mind regarding the abortion issue, but I have started some interesting conversations about health insurance (or lack thereof).
