This article is for men.
In just the past few weeks: a wife murdered. A community leader killed. Multiple women alleging assault from another congressman. A survivor died by suicide. "Rape Academy" has 140 million visits in two months.
The pattern is horrifying, and the solution starts with us.

Damn straight. Considering the expected outcome in this case, refusal is not only ridiculous, it risks sepsis for the mother if the baby dies in utero. How is this health care?
IMHO all govt funding should be cut to Catholic hospitals who refuse to provide the full range of health care to women, no exceptions
Abortion is health care
Refusing to provide abortion is discriminatory & dangerous
