Feminist: abortion gives women power

Feminist Catherine McKinnon writes:

“[Abortion] provides a moment of power in a life otherwise led under unequal conditions that preclude choice in ways [women] cannot control… [Abortion is] a window of relief in an unequal situation from which there is no exit.”

Catherine McKinnon Women’s Lives, Men’s Laws (Cambridge, Massachusetts: Harvard University Press, 2005) 141

Any “power” abortion gives a woman is the power to kill her vulnerable child. No human being should have that power over life and death for another.
