"we had abortions"

A significant victory for anti-abortion forces is the stigmatizing of the procedure.

I think it is crucial for women to not feel ashamed or stigmatized or pressured to keep abortions hidden or in the shadows.
Their partners must provide support for them.

Now some women are fighting back on this cultural front.
Ms. magazine is releasing its fall issue with a cover story titled "We Had Abortions," accompanied by the names of thousands of women nationwide who signed a petition making that declaration.
