It's a website where women can give their stories about how they are not sorry they had an abortion. When I first started reading the stories, I was really disgusted. A lot of them say things like, "So, now I’m pregnant. This was May 2005. I drank myself retarded that night. I almost hoped I would drink and smoke enough that the thing would just give up and get out."
But the more of them I read, the more I thought it might actually be a good thing. Because you see, they are all stories that state over and over again that the woman got pregnant through her own negligence. Not failed birth control. Not rape. Not incest. And most of them state over and over and over again that the reason they had an abortion is because they just don't want a baby. Some have stories of multiple abortions where they admit that they repeatedly failed to prevent pregnancy, even thought they knew they could get pregnant. And as I read them, I thought, "Instead of being disgusted or angry, I should be glad. These women are putting the truth out there in their own words. They are proving the REAL reasons women get abortions in this country."
So what do you think? Just disgusting or actually something good? (I don't see how it can really help the pro-choice movement because in my opinion, in most of these stories the women come out looking really irresponsible and stupid.)
By the way: This question isn't about the legality of abortion. That isn't up for debate at this time.

@Kaylee: I personally think that it would hurt the pro-choice movement. If you read the stories, you would see what I mean.
In fact, the women come off SO bad in some of the stories that I started wondering if the site was fake. But then I read more and did some research and realized it isn't. And that was more sad than anything.
@Chin: That's great, dude. Could you answer the question now?
@Lenny: But that's just it. People who champion pro-choice seem to think - and try to claim - that women who have abortions are poor, impoverished and victims of incest, rape and failed birth control. This website proves that isn't true. Even someone who is pro-choice would have to admit that. That's where my question is coming from.
