People of all religions, races, and sexual orientations […]
National Review reports: Feminists are now arguing about whether or not it’s offensive to talk about abortion as a “women’s issue” because gender is not that simple and men have abortions too. National Review’s attitude about the matter is rather sarcastic. For example: At the risk of being branded a “cissexist,” feminist essayist and poet […]

I think when going out to the abortion clinics or peaceful protests for life, it’s so important to have an array of people with different beliefs and perspectives on life there.
