Agreed.

They're still legal though.

Instead of spending to much time bitching and arguing about the legality of abortions people should come up with some real solutions for avoiding them.

Yes, birth control, yes abstinence, yes blow jobs, yes anal sex, but we're doing all of those things so we obviously need to do more.

I love how people think the solution is for women to control every mans sex life. As if.

I once watched one of these teen pregnancy shows and they interviewed teen guys about their techniques for convincing girls to have sex. A number of these guys freely admitted they pressured and otherwise convinced reluctant women to have sex with them.
Teens younger than age 18 account for roughly 6-7 % of abortions.

Anyone who believes in part 3 of abortions should be 1. legal, 2. safe, and 3. rare, should face the fact that the most effective way to lower the rate of abortions is for women and their sexmates to consistently and responsibly use the pregnancy prevention methods they already have.

It varies by state, but nationally, teens account for about 20% of all abortions.

Abortion Statistics - By Age.

Which states have the highest teen abortion rates? The abstinence only states, or the comprehensive sex ed states?
