Hey Women Take That Ha Ha Ha
In which the antichoice crowd gets all giddy about further restricting women's rights
By Mark Morford

Let us, right here and now, get this very straight.

No one wants abortion. Isn't that reassuring? No one likes abortion. No woman anywhere in the entire world who accidentally and/or tragically and/or violently and/or sadly became pregnant and did not intend to, wants to suffer this, ever.

No woman, by way of either mistake or unsafe sex or bad condoms or neglected birth control or immaculate conception or rampant misinformation or overly aggressive ignorant males, ever wants this done to her.

And furthermore, no female who ever became pregnant as a direct result of the lack of proper birth control information, or of the incessant stream of guilt-ridden conservative-cheered church-inhibited faux-advice masquerading as sex education in this nation, is right now saying to herself, oh joy, I get to go have this highly unpleasant, painful, frustrating, often depressing procedure. Are we clear?

But it is, as it has always been, her choice, and no one else's. Oh yes it is.
