I pray the Rosary in front of an abortuary every week, and when I see a couple walk in together, it is frequently the woman who appears more apprehensive, and it is sadly obvious that she is being pressured into the abortion.It doesn't surprise me at all that the "culture of death" would resort to lies and coersion to advance abortion. I'll admit I was a bit surprised to see that the author of this article is a woman.
A men’s advice column advising men how to encourage their pregnant girlfriends to abort provides an unsettling glimpse into the realities of abortion. One pro-life leader characterized the column, which highlights some men’s personal desires to avoid the burdens of parenthood, as “a primer for coerced abortion.”
The advice column was authored by Isabella Snow, who is described as a Sex Education Correspondent. It was published on AskMen.com, a risqué site which claims seven million monthly visitors.
The column is bluntly utilitarian in style, focusing on pregnancy’s and abortion’s effects upon the relationship of a man and a woman. It ends each paragraph of advice with a summarizing tip labeled “prenatal prep.” The avoidance of children and fatherhood is a repeated theme.
Snow begins by noting that while male readers may hope a woman will “stick to the original plan and terminate the pregnancy,” some women may suddenly want to become mothers “despite previous agreements.” She advises the male reader to try to make his girlfriend consider his wants and desires by approaching her “correctly” and taking care with his “presentation.” Any mention of the woman's needs? or the baby's needs? Didn't think so.
