It's a shame that only a quarter of Americans believe abortion should be allowed for any reason.  And it's even more a shame that only a few countries in Europe allow abortion for any reason during any trimester.  Iceland doesn't even allow abortion on demand, and it's probably the most progressive nation in the world.

Iceland's brand of progressivism involves (warning: gross oversimplification ahead) a particular sort of austere vaguely puritany feminism, which makes this understandable, if somewhat counter-intuitive.

I don't get it.

Well, I'm not sure how I feel about that.  I still tend to think Iceland is awesome.
