Abortion is a women’s issue. Men have no right to even be involved.
First, people who think men have no right to be involved in the
abortion issue should be careful what they ask for. Polls
consistently find that women oppose abortion at a higher rate than men,
they are more opposed to government funding of abortion, more active in
the pro-life movement, and are more likely to favor banning abortion
outright. It is abundantly clear that if men were excluded,
support for abortion would plummet.
Second, men don’t need to be given the right to speak out against
abortion, they already have a responsibility to do so. Real men
don’t just stand around with their hands in their pockets while
helpless children are slaughtered for money. Third, the
pro-choice crowd never tells men who support legal abortion to keep
quiet, and they have never said that the 1973 Supreme Court had no
right to be involved in the Roe v. Wade decision, despite the fact
every member was male.
They also don’t seem to mind that the overwhelming majority of
abortionists are men, and they never say anything about the male
“escorts” outside the abortion mills or even the men who force women
into having abortions. Evidently, the only men these people want
to be censored are those who think women deserve better than abortion.
Finally, if the argument is that men shouldn’t be allowed to
participate simply because they can’t get pregnant, what about women
who can’t get pregnant? Should only young, sexually active,
fertile women who are not practicing birth control be allowed to have
an opinion about abortion?
