[net.abortion] Abortion.

I know, I know.  Abortion topics belong in net.abortion, not
net.women.  However, I would like to request a discussion of
the *effects* of abortion, rather than more fairly useless
arguing about the morality or legality of it.  From what
I've read, net.abortion might not be the place for this,
thus the posting to net.women as well.


As for these "effects" I mention, I'm thinking about
physical, mental, emotional, and societal.
(Did I leave anything out? if so, please mention it).
This would be discussion of such things as:  given a woman who
has had an abortion, how often does she tell family, friends, 
etc about this?  How many women have serious emotional problems 
due to the decision to have the abortion?  

(Just to make myself clear, I'm not asking for things about
all the bad effects of abortion are, nor aall the good effects.
I'd like to see some of both.  Since I'm in favor of it, I
would certainly not want to think that there were only bad ones.)
