People who go on about there being 'too many people on earth' are never the ones who volunteer to help reduce population by topping themselves, so I don't think that's a very valid argument.
In terms of 'trauma', any psychological trauma experienced with regards to abortion is social and not inherent, social because of all this hysteria women are subjected to by the right wing bigots who want them to have no control over their bodies.
This question is not about life, and should never be about life, because if it is, it's ceding ground to anti-abortionists who want to make it a moral argument and take away women's rights. It is a political question as to what a woman can do with her own body, not a moral one.
And criminalising abortion doesn't eradicate it, it just forces women who need abortions to seek backyard operations, putting their lives at much higher risk. Hense 'pro-life', the name is a lie; they don't care if women die. That's right, I'm a poet.
Anyway, if the government forces a woman to have a baby and she is against adoption, who the hell's going to take care of it? well, it certainly won't be the government. Once it's alive the government couldn't care less about it. no, all the caring and support is left up to the mother, and that is why women should be supported for being able to choose. This reinforces all those disgusting stereotypes that say women are naturally caring, nurturing, and always love their children unconditionally, and belong in the home. If you are against abortion you are against women being independent and against them having a say over the most intimate decisions as to what happens to their bodies.
