Paramount Network premiered a new show on Thursday, "American Woman," and not even in one episode did the show avoid pushing an insane pro-abortion message.
Starring Alicia Silverstone as Bonnie Nolan and set in the 1970s, the show centers on a woman going through a divorce after catching her husband in an affair. The episode, not aptly titled "Liberation," shows how the language of abortion changed during that era."
My body, my choice is such a lie.
"The show does, however, hit on an important, unspoken truth: that many women who undergo abortions do so out of pressure from family members or feckless significant others."

Watch the clip. It is NOT how the OP or the article portray it.
It is a powerful scene with a woman crying because she doesn't really want an abortion but will do it to support her husband , because "that's what wives do".
That's the most absurd opinion piece I've read ... well, this week, anyway.
Quote:
The show clearly intended to depict abortion as just another everyday decision between a married couple, like buying a car or a house.
Just the short transcript from the episode refutes that, since the woman talks about discussions between her and her husband. Next ...
Quote:
What's interesting is how they frame the issue around what the husband wants, which is to suggest that the abortion conversation has evolved into a "woman's choice" in the 21st century.
Wrong again. Abortion has always been about a woman's right to choose.

LOL. This work of fiction depicts one person, not many.
The jury's still out on if the husband in question is "feckless". I haven't seen the show yet.

Isn't that what I posted? No my body, my choice. It's seems to be her husband's body and he is telling her what to do. That happens frequently.
