OK, so I'm reading Glamour @ work...because I'm unassigned & have nothing better to do besides studying for the CPA exam.
And this article in Glamour says survey say only approx. 35% of 18-29 year old women currently have the pro-choice view. That means a whopping 15% decrease in the pro-choice view compared to women of just 10 years ago.
The article quotes Democratic pollster Anna Greenberg: "choice is the only social issue in which you haven't seen them move to the left."
Apparently, since we've grown up with legal abortion, we may take it for granted...according to some of the older pro-choicers. Katha Pollitt: "..they're able to say, 'Oh, I'm against abortion,' knowing that it's there for them if they really need it."
But we also are more confident in birth control methods - ie, the morning-after pill. Very long, interesting article. It's the August issue, w/Nicole Kidman on the cover...
