Question to my fellow Australians . . .

In the recent Abortion 'debate', have you heard any women speaking? Or is it just Tony Abbott, the guy from Family First, and the Governor-General (There's a trio that needs to be written)?

Also, is Tony Abbott still persuing the law which means doctors have to tell parents when they see someone under 18? (or was it 16?)



Don't mind me. I'm trying to make sense out of Australian politics

I think more education is a brilliant idea. My sister, only six years behind me at school, didn't get half the sex education I got.

God forbid we ever go to abstinance only

Scandanivian countries IIRC have the lowest abortion rates in the world by far...and the most explicit sex education and easiest availability of contraception.
But of course those most vocally anti-abortion also are anti sex education. And anti single mothers and poor families.
Can't they see it's all interconnected?

That needs a few brain cells, that I'm sure are missing . . .
