[quote=Anonymous]Americans have a very idealized view of Europe and how they think Europeans think, and that is very clear when we discuss reproductive issues. Abortion rate is lower in many EU countries - Spain, Italy, etc. It’s not that women are having them earlier; it’s that they’re generally not having them. They are more vigilant about birth control. And with the waiting lists in the Spanish medical system, I suspect a lot of women who want an elective early abortion are paying for it out-of-pocket. Surrogacy is seen as exploitative. In Spain, the general response is if you want a child and can’t have one, adopt an African or Latino child. People have IVF but, if unsuccessful, the general thinking is adopt a child from another country. [/quote]
