A linguistic trick of affirming the right to abortion while simultaneously devaluing it.

62. I adamantly disagree

Many women are forced into abortion from factors such as not being able to afford the child, not being able to afford the medical costs, and some, unfortunately, because they can't afford to take off work.

Being pro-choice means being REALLY IN FAVOR OF CHOICE. Free choice, not forced choice. There are human rights issues associated with abortion as a solution to the problem of too many poor people, you know?

Now there are people who may be doing what you said, but there are many other people who are fighting across the spectrum for human rights, and who are also reading nasty commentary from various sources about how men shouldn't have to pay child support if they don't want the baby, because the woman has the right to an abortion, and about how we shouldn't extend various social benefits to women who have children they can't support, because, you know, they can just have an abortion.

Forced abortions or coerced abortions are a denial of choice, not an affirmation of it.
