My first abortion took place when I was 19 and the second, when I was 26. I felt no guilt or shame about either and would do it again if necessary.

Australia

It was as positive as any surgery can be.

I don't want to have children for the simple reason that I just don't want to.

Did the illegality of your abortion affect your feelings?

While my abortion was legal, it angered me that abortion was still governed by provisions in the Crimes Act in the state in which I lived.

How did other people react to your abortion?

My mother and the friends I told were supportive - as were the two boyfriends concerned. I suspect my father would have had issues had he known.
