019 Should not the liberalization of abortion be considered an
       important step in the long march toward the liberation of women?

a) Along with unborn infants, the real victims of abortion are women, murdered in body and soul: The great beneficiaries of abortion are men and those who make a financial or other kind of profit from these operations. The demand for the liberalization of abortion, or even freedom to have them, puts in dramatic light the sexually aggressive tendencies of our society.

b) This demand shows once again that women can make themselves objective accomplices with the very men who contrive to exploit them. In effect, it is a frightful paradox that women allow themselves to be associated with this demand. Indeed, it is men who insidiously insist on the supposed rights of women, all the while seeking to retain over them their uncaring domination.
