- Of course, it is possible to feel immense guilt if you feel you should.
- That fact that there do exist women who so brainwashed that they would
- feel guilty about having an abortion has no implications for either the
- morality of abortion or the feelings of a normal woman who has an
- abortion. I wouldn't be surprised if one of the NancyJo Mann's of the
- Victorian era managed to grow on her palms.
