Let's be honest ...okay, I've told people that I don't get my mouth numbed when I go to the dentist to get a cavity filled, and though that is accurate and true, I truthfully don't enjoy the drilling. Now, your turn to be honest ...if I said I enjoyed the drilling, would you say I'm a bit weird, strange, abnormal, or crazy??

I personally don't think it's normal to enjoy slight or intense pain.  Any pain at all, is usually not desired.

I don't think people enjoy having any type of medical procedure done to them ...whether it's having a wart removed, or wisdom teeth.

And irregardless of your views on the subject, I certainly also don't believe women enjoy having an abortion.

I've said this before, but I believe it is worth repeating.  I'm just trying to shed light on what I feel is a very important subject. Many people quickly get angry or defensive at the mere mention of the subject.  

I know I can learn something here ...after all, when a soldier returns from a horrific war (which I believe all of them are), we don't tell them they have to talk all about their horrific experiences.  And those of us who have never had an abortion, inclusive of all men, don't really know what you women have gone through.

With war, many people verbalize the horrific experience that it is ...and there are many representatives who are not silent, but rather very open about their anti-war stance.

There are many who stand against abortion ...but it is not received the same.  To date, on October 8th, 2016 ...it is estimated that 1% of abortions gave rape as the reason for choosing their Pro-choice option.  That means that approximately 830,000 abortions were performed as a result of a pregnancy that was later viewed as undesirable ...after an act that was supposedly viewed as desirable.

When I was graduating from High School, over 40 years ago, women at that time, also just getting out of High School or just entering college, were listed as the largest group having abortions ...statistically about a third of all abortions.  And of course, about 72% of them were unmarried.

Today, that first figure has dropped significantly from 33% to about 18% ...yet, another figure has increased.  The percentage who are unmarried, having abortions has increased to about 85%.

The great majority of women who have abortions are not married ...and have no commitment from the man involved. They both commit to the choice behavior ...but, they do not get the support they need.  They may look forward to the moment, and they may feel they have the support ...but, I cannot fathom that within that intimate moment they are dreamy-eyed envisioning the abortion procedure.

If people would view marriage the way it should be viewed, just think of it ...more than 700,000 abortions could be prevented each year.  So, you could say, abortion is the result ...yet, promiscuity is the real problem.

How do we view morality??

I guess, "we" is a broader statement than "I".  By saying "we", it may imply, or infer that more is involved here than just my opinion.  And of course, everyone has one ...opinion, that is.

It would only seem I'm qualified to give my opinion ...unless I've read, or have conducted some sort of poll.  Which in that case, I'd be providing information that would lend towards what "most" people think ...which would be an average, which in math is defined as a "mean".

But, I am writing to express my views, not yours.  And since I am one person ...and you are one reader, then it does not have to be an average or mean, only you and me.

And each of us likely has our own opinion, whether influenced by others, or not.  My only hope is that you would be influenced by logic ...if I can ever hope to present it properly.

Each with our own opinions, can usually envision what we view as "mean" also ...in this case, not average, but as "unkind" or "cruel".  Or as outright meanness.
