Have democrats largely given up on protecting a woman's right to choose?

[mythology]

202. It goes both ways though

Telling men that they should have no opinion doesn't exactly encourage them to try to help protect a right to abortion.

Look at this thread, there are people saying that if you are in porn, you can't be a feminist because some porn is perceived as degrading to women. If you start out focusing on telling people why they aren't part of your group, then don't be surprised if when your group needs help, those people aren't there.

Instead focus on areas of common ground, or explain the societal benefits to a right to an abortion. I'm not saying tell guys "if she gets an abortion you won't have to pay child support" but talk about the way that teen pregnancy intersects with poverty, talk about the right to have autonomy over your own body.

Personally I know if my life, I'm more likely to help somebody who doesn't tell me that my opinion isn't wanted just because I may not hold their exact position, or only wants me when it's convenient for them. I've got too much to get done in my life to spend time on those who treat me like a pariah until they need me.
