mousmeOkay, if you're one of the benighted people who thinks that women have third trimester abortions because they are frivolous idiots who suddenly have an attack of vanity, please for the love of God go educate yourself.
I'm leaving comments turned off. Either you get it, or you don't, and if you don't, I cannot be bothered to explain it to you today. I have read too many comments by supposedly well-meaning people (sadly, mostly men) who magnanimously approve of abortion so long as it's not late-term, because clearly women who make that sort of medical decision cannot possibly be informed and should therefore be forced to die in childbirth or watch their child be stillborn or die in infancy. I am not replying to any of these comments, because right now all that would come out of my mouth would be vitriol.
So to everyone who has said something like that (no matter how you couch it in caveats and disclaimers): fuck you, you don't know what you're talking about. Go read up on the subject, find out what a third-trimester abortion really is, and try listening to the women who've had to make this sort of horrifically painful choice.
Go on, I dare you.
