The source needs to remain anonymous, but someone just emailed me this:
Just read a letter from a doctor to the Therapeutic Abortion Committee of a hospital from 1979 where the family doctor requested approval for a therapeutic abortion. The reason it was “recommended” was that the father was a married man who had been living apart from his wife but who had since gone back to her. Then, I read the description of the procedure which occurred at 17 weeks gestation. Horrific. But it demonstrated that abortions really were granted for just about any reason at all.”
This lends credence to the decidedly anti-feminist proposition that abortion serves to conceal a man’s indiscretions. The woman lives with the consequences regardless.

Which hospital was this at? It’s my understanding that, while it was really very easy to get an abortion at some hospitals, at other hospitals it was well nigh impossible, and this discrepancy was one of the reasons the law was struck down in the Morgentaler decision.
Funny how the more things change the more they stay the same. It’s still very hard to get an abortion in many places in this country. Abortion advocates are always harping on about access. And then, there are places in Quebec where you can get a late-term abortion done with few or no questions asked.
But if infidelity is a good reason for an abortion, then almost anything is a good reason for an abortion. It’s not the child’s fault he was conceived. And he certainly doesn’t deserve the death penalty for it.
