I would also ask all of the abortion critics the same question that I asked Double-J:

Is your position against abortion so strong that it would include rape and incest victims?

Would it include wanting your sister or daughter to see a pregnancy through if it were the result of a rape, regardless of her age or the psychological damage it might cause her?

And, I would add these:

How can you men who are anti-abortion be so certain that you would feel the same way you do about the issue if you were a woman?

And if you do believe that you would feel the same way if you were a woman, how can you be certain that you'd feel the same way if you were a woman who was now impregnated as the result of a rape?

You can't, of course, be certain what you'd believe you know.

Your beliefs are a product of many things, not the least of which is gender, I believe.
