yes it is, and i think it is very important that women make that choice, and i applaud those that do.
I had a very dear friend have to make that choice. I walked her into the clinic to keep her from having to push the protesters away herself.
I mean women who have several a year -and i have a old friend who does this too. Although I defend their right to make that choice, i do not applaud it- after the 4th one in two years, i did not feel the need to keep sending her flowers and making her soup after a proceedure. especially when she would get all hypocritical about it. When i suggested birth control pills she said that she "did not feel comfortable doing that to my body." that is her choice to be irresponsible with her sexual activity. we are still friends.
I appreciate her taking the responsiblity of saying that she is not ready for a child, but if she was really serious about it, i feel that preventative measures would be a more mature, responsible and conscienous decision on her part. she is an adult.
