Actually it says that the data suggests that most women don't give those two reasons and goes on to say that the data is really pretty inadequate.
Our factor analysis identified five general profiles of women who sought later abortions, describing 80% of the sample. Forty‐two percent of later abortion patients fit only one group; 38% belonged in two or more groups.
But their goal seems to be to show that...
And yes the study was bias it was in their interest to dismiss these that were related to health as insignificant just like the pro lifers want to.
Over the last year they have abandoned that and turned to what is an advanced take on a primitive form of human sacrifice, if you ask me.
. However, these primitive cultures tended to have the moral high ground on todays leftists.
Today, people have abortions for appalling reasons like, I'm not ready to have kids (48% of abortions are for this reason). In other words, rather than a sacrifice it's a convenience.
As you can see, health reasons make up 7% of the current abortions. Rape makes up less than half a percent. It's truly disturbing what the abortion industry has become. However, at least the left is giving up the false pretense that they're worried about health and human life.

I don't doubt that there is a hidden black market for fetus', but that doesn't discount the idea that woman should beable to choose and not have their decisions be decided by men.
I was not aware that we only had male elected officials.

No one asked you. I'm sorry, who are you again? Who elected you as the King of the world to decide what women can or can't do?
Since you want to curb women's personal choices and to control what they can and can't do with their bodies(and yes, a fetus is a parasite that is sustained by a woman's body) do you also want to create a Christian version of Sharia law in The United States of America and in Europe?

it's hilarious how this website is supposed to be about airing out conspiracies and ''the truth is out there'' themes but meanwhile all you guys do all day is to take a jab at democrats and republicans and at trump and Clinton. Dude, no one cares.
No one cares about none of that nonsense. That's one of the reasons why I abandoned the USA never to return. From the dumb gun laws and how there are more citizen-owned handguns in the USA than there are citizens living there, to dudes going on a suicidal rampage taking many people with them, innocent people, because they want to get laid but they are too ugly or too fat(and yes, being overweight is not normal) or too socially stunted for any woman to want to sleep with them.

It's not a complicated concept to understand. Who is the most vulnerable sex in the world? Women. And yes, most women alive(there are women in the world other than the women in Canada and USA!) have it bad, and who becomes even more vulnerable when pregnant? Men? Who has to go into labor?
There are women who are more than 24 hours undergoing an extremely excrcuiating and mentally damaging event, yes even with modern drugs and technology.
Are you willing to raise those children since you believe abortion should be illegal? Nah, you'd be like one of those dudes complaining that his taxes are going for single mothers or for families that can't make ends meet.

What's truly disturbing is that you, some guy who has no business telling women what they can or can't do is allowed to voice his deep-seeted disregard and contempt for women. Women aren't property, dude. This isn't friking Iran. If you don't like you can always move to a Middle-East Country. Women ain't going to cry about it LOL
How hard is it to abstain from sex if you're not ready to handle the potential consequences of raising a child?
Somehow I've managed to abstain, despite not having a religious or ideological crutch to lean on and despite being one of these "toxic males" that thinks only with their penis.
s. I mean, is it not lost on anyone else that these are the same type of people that constantly lecture everyone else about how it is (insert current year) to attempt to try and make a point about how they think they live in this highly evolved society and are somehow beyond the brutal, barbaric ways of the past?
The whole "it's my body, my choice" thing is such an infantile argument. You already made your choice, honey -- and you chose poorly.

As long as people can be convinced that an unborn human being is less than nothing, then abortions will continue to exist.
Sad.

So back in the 80s I had two friends that got abortions and the part I found interesting was abortion was pushed first and promoted as the best course of action. CA at the time actually paid all cost to the tune of 1000 bucks to the clinics. Since all that I have come to realize that abortions are best profit for clinics....
Umm. That's funny. I had my three boys in the 80a and my first initial visit was a planned parenthood clinic each time. They pushed vitamins on me And iron even more since my iron level was rather low for the second and third but they didn't push abortion on me. Maybe it has to do with geographical locations. Who knows.

Picture yourself as a young woman whose base of support is zero or close to it. Now imagine that you either didn't go to college or you did, graduated and are now carrying college debt. You don't have your own home yet because everything is so fooking expensive in the USA, and you can't move in with your parents again - if they are alive - for whatever reason.
What are you supposed to do? Chummy it with roomates and raise a kid in those conditions? Then what? Who's gonna pay for diappers? Baby food? Doctors? Clothes? The babysitter? Who's gonna pay for the kid's schools? Books? Dentist? Doctors? You?
No. Therefore the person who actually gets pregnant gets to decide what she does with her body, and a fetus is a part of her body, considering it's living off it. Over here, in the Country I moved to from the United States of Dudes who think They Can tell a woman what she can do or can't, abortion is legal. And guess what? Tens of millions of women aren't rushing to get an abortion.
Why do you leftist pro-abortionist loons always have to bring religion into a rational debate?
