  1. Abortion’s 3 Main Stakeholders Presented by: Austin Sloan Kenzie Spring and Raquel Black

  2. Abortion Stakeholder 1: the average Male • A 2002 Public Agenda poll found that men were two percentage points more likely to believe that "abortion should be generally available" to those who want it (44% to 42%), and that women were slightly more likely to think "abortion should not be permitted" (22% to 21%). • A 2012 Gallup poll found women (44%) were more likely than men (38%) to call themselves "pro-choice" and that men (53%) were more likely than women (46%) to call themselves "pro-life."

  4. Abortion Stakeholder 2: the Abortion Doctor • Half of abortions done in the United States are because of birth control failure. • 1/3 of women who have abortions became pregnant because their significant other sabotaged their method of birth control. • “I perform abortions because women with unwanted pregnancies are willing to risk just about anything to try to end their pregnancy.” –*Name Protected Abortion Specialist* (Patheos)

  5. Abortion Stakeholder 2: the Abortion Doctor (continued…) • Most abortionists are normally Jewish, Atheist, or other forms of non-Christian faiths. • Almost half of the abortionists in the United States are women. • More than half of those women are mothers.

  6. Abortion Stakeholder 2: the Abortion Doctor (continued…) • A quote from the *Name Protected* Abortion Specialist that really stuck out to me was: “The decision to have an abortion is an agonizing decision, that few women choose lightly. They will be criticized for whatever decision they make. What kind of terrible mother could kill her own child? What kind of terrible mother could give her child away to strangers? What kind of terrible mother would keep a child she can’t afford to care for?” (Patheos)

  7. Abortion Stakeholder 3: the Pregnant Woman • Women in the world have many feeling when it comes to abortion. They feel sad, happy, a relief, and feeling of loss. • Most women do say that it is their body and they can do what ever they want. • Women have abortions for many of reasons, one is they are not ready, another is they can’t afford to be a mother.

  8. Abortion Stakeholder 3: the Pregnant Woman (continued…) • Before the abortion procedure occurs, it is a standard practice that a nurse performs an ultrasound of the baby. • Also procedure says that the pregnant woman may not see the ultrasound pictures… WHY? • Because 78% of pregnant women who do see the ultrasound pictures, sonograms, reject the abortion they were about to have.

  9. Abortion Stakeholder 3: the Pregnant Woman (continued…) • The Woman’s Choice Network is a pro-life organization that helps women facing unplanned pregnancies cope with this and then try to encourage the mother’s to choose life for their babies. • In 2011, the network aided more than 1,500 women. • Of the 172 women who were considering abortion saw their sonogram, 123 continued the pregnancy to full term and kept the child.

  11. Conclusions • Within 10 years, from 2002 to 2012, the male population went from being more pro-choice to pro-life. • The average abortionist in the United States would not only be a woman but also a mother and predominantly not of the Catholic-Christian faith. The general standpoint of an Abortion Specialist is that they do it to help women and provide them with the life they want. • The average pregnant woman seeking an abortion is between the ages of 16-25. There is no set race or ethnicity of women seeking abortions but all usually have a religious affiliation. 9 in 10 abortions occur in the first 12 weeks of a pregnancy. 6 in 10 occur in the first eight weeks. Only about 1 in 10 abortions are in the second trimester. Having an abortion can give the woman a feeling of sadness, happiness, relief, and also a feeling of loss.
