So much for women's rights

[traillius]

Although I don’t have a current news link, I googled women died from abortions and found that hundreds have died since 1973 in the US alone from " safe, legal abortions." Many of these women, as I discovered when I investigated, died from medical mistakes inflicted upon them by MALE doctors. In almost any other circumstance when a male hurts or insults a woman while acting in a professional capacity, that man is at best ostracized, and often legally or civilly prosecuted for his actions. Where then are the women’s rights groups and the woman’s choice groups when this happens. Don’t they consider this wrong, and possibly sexist? What’s more anti-woman than a man killing a woman, or causing or allowing her death, in a medical careless mistake related to female only biology and reproductive health freedom. What about the human and civil rights of the woman, and any surviving family members, like children, including girls. Any one care to chime in, feel free. Including pro choice people and feminists

I’m sorry, but I’m rather flabbergasted by your take of this situation. Where do I start first?

“I googled women died from abortions and found that hundreds have died since 1973 in the US alone from " safe, legal abortions.”"

Ok, sure. And in the same amount of time, how many have died from other medical procedures? How many have died from drowning in a bath tub or in car accidents or tripping and injuring themselves severely? I’m sorry, but over 30 years “hundreds” is a drop in the bucket for female deaths and is hardly outcry worthy.

And as for the rest of your post, all I have to say is this. Of COURSE the majority of doctors in these regrettable incidents were male. The majority of doctors simply ARE male if I remember right. If you have a profession where(and I’m pulling these numbers out of thin air here) 70 are male and 30 are female, you will get MORE MALES in the overall offending category from simple random selection!

I am willing to bet any amount of money the number of women who’ve died from, say, trying to have cancer cured/removed in the same amount of time is far greater. Would you then say that that is a bigger issue?

Also, Doctors are not all powerful. Some will die. There are no miracle procedures. 99% success rates are still failures 1% of the time. So if you have a 99% successful procedure done 10000 times, you will get 100 failures. This is not a conspiracy. This is simply man not having all possibly medical knowledge.

My apologies if my post comes off a bit coarse, but I must say, I have no idea what you’re trying to express here. I’m quite sure men die daily at the hands of female doctors who are acting in a professional capacity…would you consider that sexist as well? And when have these male doctors been ostracized and/or prosecuted? What is your argument here?

And suppose its no big deal the women who die at the hands of female doctors.
Sounds like another one of those misguided hateful anti-man minions.
Note the intent of abortion is to kill a human being, and the doctor doesn’t give a hill of beans about whether the unborn child he kills is male of female. How about speaking up for the true victims.

**My closest friend is employed in an abortion clinic. She tells me that the complications women suffer as a result of their procedures stem mainly from the patients’ non-compliance with the doctors’ after care instructions. A significant number of them refuse to show up for their follow-up exams; a good many of them engage in sexual intercourse right after the procedure is performed, or within the following day or two, which can introduce bacteria into the body and set the patient up for a raging infection.

This falls solely on the shoulders of the patients. So, statistically, the original poster’s numbers need more investigation.
