"Hospitals perform abortions, too, you know. Shall we call them "abortion clinics"?

Abortion clinics (those that specialize in doing abortions) call themselves "abortion clinics". Wasn't my idea. They also call themselves family planning clinics. I didn't make that up either. Nor did whatever subculture I or you were raised in, presumably.

It sounds to me like you are agreeing that the term does not have a natural ring in that context... My original and only point.... I don't mind repeating that now for about the zillienth time... or with subsequent posts.

"...but occasionally abortion clinics inaccurately and euphemistically call themselves family planning clinics."

Take care,
