""I have no knowledge of such figures, but personally I dont think abortion for the sake of convenience should be legal.""

So what about abortion when the pregnancy is the result either of rape, or the refusal of the man to either use contraceptives or abstain?

It strikes me that the number of women who decide to terminate for convenience is a tiny proportion of the whole, given the physical amd emotional stress of the procedure.

I don't believe that women take the denial of their most natural function as lightly as some men would like to believe.

Like you, I have no figures, but I believe that women have the right to decide for themselves.
