Fact vs Fiction: TV Distorts the Reality Of Abortion Health Care, Making It A Luxury For White Women

Self-Centered White Women, AKA Feminists

While the study researcher Gretchen Sisson didn't specifically link 'feminism' to the abortion study narrative, she did tell NPR that TV helps "build an interesting social myth, which is that women who get abortions aren't mothers and they don't want to be mothers." The facts of abortion on a wide scale are that "the majority of women getting abortions are already parenting, and the vast majority intend to parent during their lives."

Television characters seeking abortions are depicted as doing no because having a child would interfere with educational or career plans, fueling the mythology of the fabricated, feminist first mentality of women who embrace women's rights and self-actualization.

"Taken together, this pattern of reasons can contribute to the construction of abortion as a self-focused decision, and to the belief that abortions are 'wanted' because of personal desires rather than 'needed' because of circumstances such as poverty," the researchers say in their report on TV depictions." Sisson explains.

In a distortion of facts, about 10% of TV characters die from their abortions, when the real death rate is 0.0015 percent -- or nothing. Republicans and the abortions rights movement has used the ruse of protecting women's health to justify the extreme medical safety requirements placed on abortion facilities in the US.
