The other sex involved in a pregnancy can take effective steps to prevent it from happening too.

Never happen. On the other hand, birth control on demand for the ones who otherwise give birth is one of the most revolutionary changes of the 20th century, and there is precious little discussion about it. But it is certainly a big contributor to the world-wide decline in birthrates in high and middle-income countries, that has put dozens of countries in the 'below replacement' birthrate category.

N.C. Republicans pass 12-week abortion ban, setting up showdown with governor

What is interesting with this bill is the way this was passed and to make matters worse, a House member just switched parties (D-->R) giving the Repubs super majority to override the certain veto by Gov. Roy Cooper (R). Interestingly only about 30% of NC residents are anti abortion, so much for our vaunted democracy.

Quote:
Many Democrats said they were surprised when the proposal was unveiled at a news conference Tuesday night. Rather than introducing the proposal as a new bill, as is typical, Republicans instead gutted a different piece of legislation and inserted the 46-page abortion bill, allowing them to circumvent the usual committee process, which can take weeks or months.
Quote:
The text of the bill was so tightly-held that only House and Senate leadership and a handful of other members had a copy in their possession, according to several lawmakers and advocates. If they wanted to review the language, most Republicans had to go to the office of someone who had a copy of the bill — and they were forbidden from making their own copies or taking pictures.

Even within groups of Republicans helping to draft the bill, deliberations were so secret that participants had to turn in their papers after every meeting, one lawmaker said.
This is how MAGA is done if anyone is wondering. Screw you if you don't like it.
