No. Pap smears are not as invasive as abortions. Sorry but wrong.
Even first trimester abortions are much more invasive than a pap smear is. Both are medical procedures but they differ in "invasiveness".
There is a reason to keep abortions safe, legal, hygienic and that is because done poorly, they can and do cause many problems.
Saying paps are just as invasive as abortions is dead wrong. And yes, I've worked with both.
