Men will never know the feeling

SOME of the male critics of Evelyn Cleary’s stance on abortion (Irish Examiner letters, August 31) need to be reminded that they are not the ones required to carry a baby they don’t want.

Their lives won’t be disrupted by pregnancy and neither their careers nor education will end.

They will never carry a child conceived through rape, incest or an abusive partner - a statistic far higher than Mark Daly’s broad figures suggest (Irish Examiner letters, September 12).
