Also until early in the first trimester, I believe, a fetusis just a group of cells. I agree whole-heartedly that being anti-woman is anti-family.

How true my friend, how true. Working at a <a href="http://www.starkwomensclinic.com/" rel="nofollow">women's health</a> clinic in Canton, Ohio I have seen these effects even trickle into our small office, from misinformation to patients concerned about how private and confidential their procedures really are. Thankfully, the doctors in our office are always eager to correct any misunderstandings or address concerns, as I'm sure most OBGYNs are. Thank you for sharing this article, I feel that by spreading the word and educating others we can abolish the ignorance that stands in our way of creating a better society and world to live and raise our children in.

Politicians play to their voter base. Why is there an anti-family voter base? Because most people either believe that people two generations ago were more moral than people now (which this writer agrees with); or believe that what has good results in relationships within the family is what's good for families (which this writer agrees with). How can anyone be on both sides? People two generations ago were moral so they judged by results. People now aren't as moral but they too judge by results. Nowadays some behaviors have results similar to the past; some behaviors have results differing from the past. E.g. unintended pregnancy is reduced by contraception; abortion formerly often killed the woman, but now, per thousand cases, abortion is much safer than birth; timing of and number of children affect family, but differently in different settings; God does or doesn't believe the unborn are persons; prospective parents and grandparents have differing degrees of valuing the prospective newborn than each other or than generations ago. Both sides are right. The other side seem to be moral cripples; but except for those faking their belief everybody means well. Anti-woman is anti-family. Politicians play to their voter base.

Having more female lawmakers (an arenas where the US has not done so well) might also help ultimately reduce political interference into the minute aspects of health choices women are increasingly being asked to make to appease political agendas.
