Even for readers who feel abortion is a grievous moral wrong, who just can’t care about a character who chooses abortion, it’s worth asking why we find it enjoyable and valuable to experience stories that explore, empathize with, or even glorify murderers (Dexter Morgan, Hannibal Lecter), rapists (male protagonists in dark romance, Alex of A Clockwork Orange), thieves (Eugenides in Megan Whalen Turner’s Queen’s Thief series, Becky Sharp), war criminals, and more. Why should female characters who have abortions be so much harder to depict with subtlety or to read with understanding? My wish is not just for more stories, but also that abortion narratives in fiction don’t combine to paint a misleading portrait of what is actually one of the most common and safest medical interventions in the United States (over 16 million per year; 0.7 deaths per 100,000). The vast majority of women (95%) do not regret their abortions, and their dominant emotional reaction is relief, in both the short and long term. If fiction stimulates empathy, maybe more and varied portrayals could facilitate dialogue around a topic that can be polarizing. Or shed light on the many values “pro life” and “pro choice” readers share. Fictional narratives could supplement existing efforts to encourage women to share their stories and provide emotional support to readers who have had an abortion, especially important since the negative psychological effects of abortion, when they are present, are exacerbated by social stigma.

she asks where were you born? and i show her the way to my garden (the part of my mind where the rain lives)  she asks where did you die? and i show her the way  to my bedroom (with the blue paint that  looks nothing like the sky) she asks where do you matter? and i show her the way to my providence– (her wrists, her lips, the beautiful shape of her hands)
