In many cultures? Aren't we a conglomeration of cultures?
Aren't abortion laws much more restrictive in some other cultures? Why not adopt their restrictions on it, then? I could go into so many things that other cultures do that are so completely offensive it isn't tasteful to post. You can pick and choose what you want from other cultures, but there will not be agreement on what is best to adopt.
I don't want a societal unit that functions as a family and tells me what is best for me and my children or for you and yours. My preferences are not yours. Yours are not mine. I pay to have my kids in a private school to avoid such things. There are many things that I don't care if society in general approves of, I don't. There are many things that society in general doesn't approve of, but I do. The great thing is your family probably functions well. So does mine. And we're different.
