Planned Parenthood absolutely does not represent millions of conservative women....
How would you know what represents women?
Planned Parenthood has always been the enemy of conservative women
This from a lying Russian troll who clearly knows NOTHING about women.
Women WANT the right to choose. By age 40, 25% of American women have had abortions. Whether they talk about it or not, women want the right to choose when they have a child. Birth control does not work entirely as advertized, even when taken as directed.
I cannot imagine being forced to be pregnant with a child you cannot afford. That's the reality of abortion. As much as conservatives like to portray the women who terminate their pregnancies as amoral party girls, or heartless women who hate children, the hard reality is that majority of the women who get abortions are; (a) either married or in a committed relationship; and (b) already have one or more children.
What you have is a nation where poor married women cannot afford to have children, because they have no health care, no job protections during pregnancy, no affordable child care after the baby is born, and no way of providing for their families during pregnancy, confinement, and before returning to work.
Republican policies have created a nation where poor people are aborting their families because they can't afford to feed them.
Conservative women if they walk their talk, there is no need for abortion...
Conservative women don’t have the same interests and needs as progressive women… fact
The nanny state cannot be sustained, that has been proven over and over again
13% of abortions - that's over 100,000 abortions every single year, are obtained by EVANGENICAL women. There is no group of women who "talks the talk" more than evangelicals, and yet they get abortions in numbers very close to their percentage of the population overall.
It's not conservative women who talk about abortion. It's conservative MEN. Because abortion isn't about the caring about the unborn or being "pro-lilfe". If you were really "pro-life", you wouldn't be opposed to universal health care, which would save 45,000 American lives every year, or gun control which would save another 45,000 American lives every year. Conservative men want to stop women from having control over their own lives.
If they were really "pro-life", they'd want to do something about the high rates of infant mortality, and of maternal death in childbirth, both of which are the highest in the first world. They would insist on birth control being taught in high school, and free control for all. ANYTHING to make abortion unnecessary.
But that's not what they do. They promote "abstinence only" birth control. I grew up in the "abstinence only" birth control era - before the pill. Girls were expelled from school if they got pregnant. Abortion was illegal. None of that stopped teenagers from having sex. Not the fear of being sent to an "unwed mothers' home" to await the birth of a child which would be taken from you at birth and put up for adoption. Not having "bastard" put on your child's birth certificate. Not being told "No decent man will want you", if you aren't a virgin when you marry". There were orphanges in every city.
Some of you people need to be reminded of just how bad it was in the days before abortion and birth control.
Just because someone says they are conservative does not mean they are conservative, There is no need for conservative women and have abortions, If they do they obviously are not conservative.
Abortion enthusiast like yourself do not speak for conservative women, progressive and conservative women have altogether different needs and wants. Fact
Universal healthcare only suits progressives, it makes life a living hell for conservatives.
The nanny state has no moral character, it is and always has been about control...
