I should have specified legal abortion, of course. Induced abortion goes back to the first time someone realized you could keep a fetus from developing and being born (and becoming a burden - which is exactly what a child is who is unwanted and/or uncared-for), which has to have been tens of thousands of years.

It really does seem that all these proposals have in common the ultimate goal of recreating a disparity between the sexes - and then wedging the difference even wider. Basically, women are being punished for existing, one, and two, for wanting the same freedoms and opportunities as men. Silly wimminz.
