As a guy, the same thing would be important to me. I’d want a girlfriend who valued herself enough to make that choice. Also, what if I screwed up and got her pregnant? I’d want her to get whatever care she chose, and not be treated like a breed sow.

I also wouldn’t want her to die from an ectopic pregnancy

I wouldn’t want that, either. I’d want to be where care is easily available and obstetricians aren’t afraid to do their jobs.

As someone who used to be a teenager, I imagine that remaining 27% being mostly guys that haven’t thought that far ahead, and would have been much higher in my day

Congratulations to the zoomers for proof that you’re compassionate and can think beyond immediate needs and desires
