The reality of being pro-choice

Great editorial in the Atlantic by Ta-Nahesi Coates on the decisions you have to make to be pro-choice.
 Here's a taste:

Every day women choose to do the hard labor of a difficult pregnancy. Its courageous work, which inspires in me a degree of admiration exceeded only by my horror at the notion of the state turning that courage, that hard labor, into a mandate. Women die performing that labor in smaller numbers as we advance, but they die all the same. Men do not. That is a privilege.

Read the whole thing.
