  14. Has anyone considered the following hypothesis:
  15.  
  16. Could it be possible that the availability of abortion may influence
  17. partners to be less careful with contraception?  Could it not then
  18. ALSO be possible that were abortion proscribed, these same partners would
  19. begin being MORE careful than they were previously?  Could this not
  20. then reduce the 1.5 million unwanted pregnancies per year that WOULD
  21. have resulted in an abortion?
  22.  
  23. With respect to at least my first question, Sandra Day O'Connor seems
  24. to think so.
