Studie gibt Aufschluss darüber, wie die Einstellung „Nicht in meinem Hinterhof“ die Ansichten der Menschen zum Zugang zu Abtreibungen beeinflussen kann | Während die Abtreibungspolitik typischerweise als eine moralische oder auf Rechten basierende Frage dargestellt wird, können diejenigen, die den Zugang zur Abtreibung befürworten, dagegen sein, wenn die Dienste in ihrer eigenen Nachbarschaft angeboten werden.

NIMBY attitudes affect support for local abortion services

  1. That’s the thing about this topic. It isn’t exactly even a moral or political issue as much as it is a medical one. It’s nobody’s business except for the woman and her doctor. Kind of like how a vasectomy would prevent the birth of a child but nobody gives a crap about that.

    This framing is interesting and clearly designed to get clicks, but the article admits that it has a lot of work to do to be saying anything relevant about Nimbyism or abortion.

    It’s just a building. They don’t have view screens or something…

  4. Why is this in this sub? The entire premise is ill-conceived. The same as “people who want access to airplanes don’t want to live next to the runway.” The variables that actually matter and carry weight aren’t even discussed

  5. This is wild, an abortion clinic looks identical to the dentist from the outside.

  6. Its weird to me that this kind of thing would fall under NIMBYism. I live across from both a Planned Parenthood *and* a women’s health clinic (read: abortion clinic) and NGL it was part of what made me want to live here; the fact that this little city-town has access to all kinds of services for individuals in need. I’d say the majority of the town feels about the same.

    But I live in a blue town in a blue county in a blue state so maybe we’re skewed.

    The bigger and more important fact is this, Those who cannot get pregnant and who are less likely to be affected by an unwanted pregnancy are more likely to oppose it.

    Those who can get pregnant and those more likely to be affected by an unwanted pregnancy usually support it.

    Some males publicly state they do not know why a 50 year old mother or grandmother cares about abortion rights for their daughters or grand daughters, This is because they do not understand that those women fully understand what pregnancy is like, and how life damaging an unwanted pregnancy can be.

    I thought this was going to be about how “pro-life” advocates often get abortions when it’s an issue that effects them or their children.

  9. Strongly pro-reproductive rights grandma who still remembers the bad old days of women being maimed and killed by back alley abortions, the only qualms I would have about a clinic offering abortion access would be around safety issues given the murders, bombings, arson, and other violence that have been perpetrated by rabid Christian fanatics.

  10. I wonder if pro life people would change their mind if an orphanage was in their neighborhood. This is schlock pretending to be science.

  11. We had a similar argument one town over regarding a forensic psychiatric facility.

    And I did understand the people who were against it, because it’s more ornless a prison and they always fear that somebody would break out and kill everybody around 

    But it’s an abortion clinic 

    As long as they have a solid parking situation, and there are no idiot protestors that annoy me in my everyday life, why would I care if the building next door is a hair salon, doctors office or abortion clinic
