Dear keep rocking, Sorry to hear about your brother....yes u have some awesome points....it not only affects your brother's life but your mother's too! I also agree with your concept of modern science and how it has changed humanlife especially of women when we think about family planning....there is no way women would be career-oriented and forward if she had to take care of 10 children daily...right! Isn't it funny like poonte mentioned, "80% of decision makers regarding abortion are men...100% of them will never experience pregnancy." How pathetic is that? It's easy for men to blame on women for aborting and that she should be punished. But they have never been in their situation and never will....so therefore have no right to judge and rule over their bodies. In order for a woman to be pregnant...u have two human beings involved "men and women".....how come I don't hear any criticism against men...when they have equal part on getting women pregnant? Why women are the scapegoats? How about some nepali men who force their wives to abort when they realize that she's not carrying a son??? who is responsible here man or a wife?? Bottomline is, u can't just single out women here.....it also reflects the defecits of the society (lack of sex education) and men themselves 'cause they have the equal part in this process. Being pregnant and having a baby isn't that easy as most men think....and raising a baby is a totally different story. Let's look at "hendrixfire"'s view.....he considers only women who sleep around as *******" What he forgets to realize is that ***** sleep around with men. Oh it's not a man's fault in sleeping around? Infact we all know men sleep around way more than women!! Too bad, men don't get pregnant.......otherwise women could say the same things to men! That would be fun! ooooops, men don't even have a bad word like "hendrixfire" is using for women even though men are worse. What kind of justification is this?? It's easy to blame them than to realize what they go through! Think again!
