Well, I'm not going to start having a bunch of babies I can't provide or take care of so I *might not* get breast cancer one day. I try not to live in fear of things that might not happen.
It is interesting that a culture without birth control and abortions have virtually no breast cancer cases.
Then how does this fit in? [Don't let real facts get in the way of your bias.]

Cancer is now the second leading cause of death in Indians after cardiovascular disease. Amongst women cervical cancer is still the most frequently diagnosed cancer but breast cancer is now the most commonly diagnosed cancer in urban Indian women.

Established in 2005 as a partnership between the Institute of Cancer Medicine at the University of Oxford and 6 of India’s leading comprehensive cancer centres, INDOX brought together many of the world’s leading oncologists and scientists in a unique global resource to support the advancement of new anti-cancer therapeutics from the laboratory into the clinic. INDOX has now expanded to include 12 centres, making it India’s largest academic oncology network, and has proved that Indian institutions have the ability to conduct high quality clinical and translational research.

India is facing a cancer epidemic. By 2020, 70% of the world's cancer cases will be in poor countries, with a fifth in India. Last year, the Indian Council of Medical Research released an analysis of cancer cases among women in Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, and Bangalore from 1982 to 2005, showing that until about 10 years ago, 10 per 100 000 women got breast cancer, compared with 23 per 100 000 now. By 2020, breast cancer is set to overtake cervical cancer as the most common type of cancer among all women in India.

I hope people know BC is a poison. It has hurt and killed women. Blood clots and such. That is why doctors recommend stopping taking the pill after a certain age.
YAZ has a class action law suit now for women who have been hurt by it. All drugs have side effects. You can't say BC and abortifacients don't. Just a fact.
Bringing this thread back to the OP regarding breast cancer. There have been at least two posts that have provided sourced evidence that knock down the OP's quoted "incorrect" info.

Long periods of breast feeding and multiple pregnancies reduce the risk of breast cancer. So I suppose multiple abortions and thus fewer children could be linked to breast cancer, but I don't think the abortion itself is the reason.
