The March for Life is the true women's march

On Friday, over 100,000 activists are expected to descend on Washington for the annual March for Life. The theme of this year’s march, “Life Empowers: Pro-Life is Pro-Woman,” is especially timely.

The era when even pro-choice Democrats would express personal objection to abortion is not only long gone, but it has been replaced by a culture in which women are encouraged to celebrate their abortions as some sort of symbol of female empowerment. Instead of speaking honestly about the issue — even if just to acknowledge that abortion is never desirable — pro-abortion advocates argue that women need abortion and that abortion is nothing strange. In fact, it’s normal.
