[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]92% of abortions are done for convenience

[img]https://i.redd.it/42sbfk7ojk891.png[/img][/quote]

This is TOTALLY FAKE data.

What it actually means is that for 92.330% of abortions, they have no data.  Not that they have actual data saying "abortion of convenience."  They just treated it as if it were "abortion of convenience" which is totally dishonest.

The patient wasn't asked why, or the patient declined/refused to answer when asked why.  Among those who got the "no reason" abortions were victims of the 770,000 rapes a year that happen in America, victims of incest, victims of extreme poverty, et cetera.

It's the exact opposite of 92.330% of patients saying "oh yeah I got an abortion for sh*ts and giggles!"[/quote]

I have no idea where the supposed numbers came from. But everything I’ve seen falls along the lines of this study comparing reasons given in 1987 and 2004:

https://www.guttmacher.org/perspectives50/womens-reasons-having-abortion

In both years, the reasons were basically the same. “Having a baby would dramatically interfere with their education, work, or ability to care for their dependents, or they could not afford a baby at the time.” In-depth follow-up interviews “portrayed women who had had an abortion as typically feeling that they had no other choice, given their limited resources and existing responsibilities to others.”

“Elective” means they made the choice to have an abortion. Not that they were just doing it for funsies.[/quote]
