the reasons for abortions are sometimes trivial
I concede that someone could use abortion for trivial reasons, but I am not sure how you can know the real reason that people do the things they do. The procedure is not cheap nor pleasant. I think that puts a lower threshold on how trivial the participants will be. There are other motives for abortion that I don't agree to, such as spite, but again I don't know how you can tell the real motives in each case. Surveys indicate that women think long and hard before coming to the choice.

LMAO. As per usual in abortion 'debates' on SI RWE threads,

...no fewer than nine men -- and no women -- are weighing in on the issue with mighty, powerful, profound and highly emotionally charged rhetoric ... moral conviction ... ethical standards ... yada, yada, yada ...

Some posting urban legend material from prolife hate websites ... lots of testosterone hostility impotently expressed ... fist flailing ... chest beating ... name calling ...

Lots happens but nothing changes.
