What do you think are the most accurate statistics on abortion. I'm in the US but it could be anywhere. I've heard that 1/4 women have had an abortion. I've also heard that it's "common" which implies higher. I've wondered if many abortions are from the same women. I'm confused about how common it is, and if it's just you could go anywhere in the country and find roughly 1/4 of the women you're around will have had one.
I know some women have one because they're told it's OK by culture and then they regret it, or some have one because they are scared of having the child but then regret it. But sometimes I think about how I'm surrounded by baby murderers. I would feel strange if I worked in an office where 1/4 of the women or men had likely murdered an adult, or when I walk in the supermarket knowing 1/4 of the women or men had likely murdered an adult.
I'm not trying to be "holier than thou" and I know everyone has done bad things which are not my business, but it's more the seriousness of the act, it's commonality, and the laid-back or now even celebratory view of it as "female empowerment" in some cases.
