I’ve seen pro-aborts try to dismiss the abortion-breast cancer link by saying that women lie about abortions, but I have never heard that dismissal explained quite the way this author did. So, we are to believe that women with breast cancer are more likely to admit past abortions than cancer-free women? That is ludicrous.
If anything, the propensity of women to lie about past abortions means the link is stronger than the studies show. There is absolutely no reason to think that the incidence of lying would be any different in the cancer versus the cancer-free groups. So women who lie about past abortions and have cancer will be counted in the wrong group—meaning that the number of post-abortive women who have cancer is even higher than counted.
Another health effect of abortion that is more immediate than cancer is the effect on future pregnancies. A history of abortion is as likely to cause fetal loss and premature birth as smoking during pregnancy. But unlike smoking, which can be stopped at any time, a previous abortion cannot be undone. The damage it does to the reproductive system is irreversible. Although the usual effect of the damage is to cause increased miscarriage and premature birth, it can cause outright inability to get pregnant. To my knowledge, abortion clients are never warned that a single abortion can prevent them from ever having a live baby (if they want one later on, that is).
Hey, what’s the big deal? Gay men have been dying from AIDS by the millions for decades because of Political Correctness. No logical reason that PC shouldn’t kill women, too.
My maternal aunt and maternal grandmother both died from breast cancer at early ages. Both also had multiple miscarriages. Failing to properly research and inform about the abortion/BC link could also negatively affect the many women who’ve never had abortions yet have miscarriages.
