From British clinic worker Moira Wilson:
“The vast majority of abortion surgeons available are men. These surgeons are highly trained experts. But, unfortunately, if a woman feels uncomfortable about a man performing the procedure, she is unlikely to be able to request a female surgeon. She will be supported by nurses throughout treatment, who are very likely to be female, and a request to have a female nurse present should be possible to meet.”

The term “treatment” is often used in England as euphemism for an abortion procedure.
It’s interesting to reflect on how most abortion doctors are male. Pro-life feminists say that abortion is demeaning and exploitive to women. Could it be that women physicians sense this and are less likely to participate in abortions? Why are all the women working these clinics (that Wilson describes) subservient to the men?
