Hey Susie_Book,

Quote:
I do think it's a problem for same-sex couples that many women choose adoption because they are anti-choice, and many anti-choice people are more generally conservative.

This is one of the problems that many birthmothers face. We are endlessly lumped in with the abortion debate. For reasons that many of us cannot understand, we are shackled to Roe as if it is our personal cross to bear and we must answer the charges society brings against it. (No judgement of anyone meant there - just as observation).

If I had to guess, I think you would find (and this again is only my opinion) that many birthmothers would say that while abortion is not an option they felt personally comfortable with, they would not feel comfortable telling another woman how to choose.


Regards,
