I believe this, simply because the vast majority of abortions are elective. Explicitly deciding to do something invokes all sorts of defense mechanisms that don't come into play with something like a miscarriage. It doesn't mean that an abortion is any less of a tragedy than a miscarriage (and I say that as a pro choice individual), just that the ability to steel ourselves against the inevitable has some benefits.

- pmiller2 7y agoYou are correct, but I wasn’t counting miscarriages (“spontaneous abortions”) in with medical or surgical abortions.
