The recent chatter about Planned Parenthood reminded me of this quote from Edward Abbey....

"Abolition of a woman's right to abortion, when and if she wants it, amounts to compulsory maternity: a form of rape by the State."

I tend to agree with Abbey. As much as I would like to believe otherwise, I don't think all women in our country possess full control of their reproductive rights. Whether it be for reasons of rape, coercion or simply being born into religious or cultural institutions, which strip them of control over their own bodies.
