It\u2019s time we see ourselves having abortions onscreen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the story, she argues, \u201cCountless studies have highlighted the importance of representation in the media, be it race, gender, relationships, body size and shape, mental health, or disability status. The same is true of abortion \u2026 But accurate depictions of the most common abortion patients, parents, is still severely lacking.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Campoamor goes on to lament a drop in abortion depictions on TV, pointing out, \u201cIn 2019, 43 television shows featured an abortion storyline. In 2020, only 31 shows featured a character who underwent the procedure.\u201d In contrast, she quotes a woman named Erika Christensen who says she finds it \u201cmeaningful\u201d and \u201cordinary\u201d to see moms having abortions on film because she decided to have an abortion in her third trimester \u2014 a gestational stage when most babies are able to survive outside the womb.<\/p>\n<p>Later, Campomoar highlights a TV showrunner who says part of the problem is that television and film writers don\u2019t make abortions look interesting enough: \u201c[\u2018Orange is the New Black\u2019 writer Merritt] Tierce says it\u2019s difficult to successfully include an abortion storyline in a show or film, especially in a way that is authentic, because most abortions are, for lack of a better word, boring.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another problem, Campoamor claims, is that fictional storylines often imply that women wrestle emotionally over whether or not to end a child\u2019s life when in reality the decision is usually easy: &nbsp;\u201cEven if a showrunner, creator, or writer is successful in placing an abortion within a storyline or plot, it can actually cause more harm than good,\u201d she says, \u201cdepicting a wrought decision could be misleading when studies have shown most people are certain of their choice, and five years after their abortions 95 percent of patients say it was the right decision for them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, Campoamor and the sources she quotes want to see TV series and films showing abortion as just another \u201cparenting decision\u201d and \u201cact of love.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think the most radical reconception that needs to happen with respect to abortion, especially parenting people who have abortions,\u201d Tierce tells Campoamor, \u201cis for people to realize that it can be a serious act of love to have an abortion. And for people who have kids, that is the number one decision-making factor. If they feel like they can\u2019t handle another child, what\u2019s driving that decision is the desire to give the children they already have the best possible life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
