Wow. I'm surrounded by people daily who talk of being Pro-Choice, but when pressed none of them (all women) would avail themselves of the freedom to make that choice. It seems to be saying one thing with your mouth and demonstrating another with your body.
And I hate the oversimplified accusation that I cannot say anything because I'm male.
