Lots of men won't use a condom. Then there's the ones that start with a condom then remove it during sex without telling the woman.

No reason why women can't just say "No!"

One size doesn’t fit all. Some sexual encounters are a one time without people truly knowing each other, going their separate ways. In relationships that are more than that the pregnancy is discussed and the man agrees they should abort. In many cases if the man stepped up there would be no abortion. Women who don’t inform the father have many reasons, it could be a relative or an abusive relationship they’re trying to get out of. The small percentage of men who didn’t want their offspring aborted, should have made sure him and his partner were on the same page about an unintended pregnancy. He isn’t helpless if he doesn’t want his offspring aborted he needs to use bc himself. Just like a woman he is as completely responsible for the pregnancy as she is.

2020 Percent of Abortions by Race (KFF) compared to Percentage of US Population (US Census Bureau)

Black: 39% of abortions, 13.6% of population
Hispanic: 21% of abortions, 18.9% of population
White: 33% of abortions, 59.3% of population

Do the math.

(39/13.6) divided by (33/59.3) = 5.2
Sanger is dead and has been for decades. Ridiculous to say blacks are targeted because there are clinics in a neighborhood. No pregnant woman who is happy about pregnancy walks by a clinic and says gee think I’ll go abort today and follows through. McDonald’s in lots of neighborhood, plenty of people don’t eat there despite the convenience.

What??!? You mean just because there's a McDonald's in my neighborhood that I'm not compelled to use it even if I am hungry?

Yep. One size does NOT fit all. Because men don't get pregnant, the responsibility falls to women to make sure they and/or their partners are using birth control if they don't want to get pregnant. If they fail to do so, they're ACCEPTING an 85% risk of pregnancy.

Look at the BMI ratios of black people vs whites and then look at how many McDonalds are located in ghetto areas, put two and two together, and then tell me with a straight face that McDonalds doesn't target the inner cities as a high revenue area. And by the way, I have nothing against McDonalds food even though I should have outgrown it by now, lol

There are > 250 McDonalds locations in NYC alone.

Perhaps YOU can provide an alternate reason WHY Black women have a 5.2 times higher abortion rate than white women. Sooooo...??? What is it?

McDonald’s are everywhere, you don’t have to eat there.

Women who weren’t ever going to abort their pregnancy won’t walk by a PP and suddenly change their minds and abort.

It’s certainly more economic than there’s a clinic around the corner.
