Abortions in Macedonia

[Jankovska]

It is a sad reality and sex needs to stop being taboo in MAcedonia, the small towns more for this to be kept under control. The statistics are terrible and very very alarming. Alot of girls are promised full on relationships, are part of a full on relationship and he decides he doesn't want to marry. Another issue is in a small town if you go to a chemist to get the pill or buy condoms as a girl bloody hell, ti ke si gradskata kurva. The mentality needs to change first and I am sure this statistics won't be so bad. My friend is married with two chiildren and is ashamed to go and get the pill, there is no privacy, confidentiality, the whole town knows. Reputation is everything because most of the people are still mind set in the stone age and you must hide, pretend. It is not hard to put something at the end of it to make sure you don't get pregnant but ALOT of girls who get pregnant and have an abortion are actually in a relationship. Where do you go/

Abortion is a poor form of birth control. The contraceptive pill, implanon and other contraceptive devices are freely available, and when you have the issue of morality, then condoms should be used, every time, sexually transmitted diseases are a reality in todays loose culture.
ABortion should never be used as a form of birth control, that is disgusting. Where the baby or mother's health is at risk, or as a result of sexual abuse, then this should be the only time this method should be used.
The fetus is a living soul, it feels pain, and is almost tatamount to murder
Very alarming statistics

I read somewhere couple of years ago that 45 billion babies have been aborted and 43 billion of them were from European descent. If that's true, we wouldn't be needing immigrants today if those babies were alive and produced when they grew up.

I just read a statistic that from 2009 – there were 24 abortions per every 100 births in Macedonia.

Without getting into the morality of the issue ... which is inevitable ... are these "rabbits" that stupid that they believe every bloke who says he is gonna pull it out ... will??

Here is a cool map:

Actually looking at the map, I stand corrected .... the statistic looks horrific to me, but seems to be in line with most "developed" countries.

I suppose the statistic I was after is abortions per sexual encounter. Knowing how chesni the Macedonian girls are, I will assume it was the only time they ever had sex.

Clearly Catholicism works with the Polish!
