Message: Entry: The "fertility film": a conservative trend in Hollywood? Link: http://www.takimag.com/sniperstower/article/the_fertility_film_a_conservative_trend_in_hollywood#26502 Post contents: I don't know where you get your statistics. According to the CDC http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/figures/s609a1t1c.gif whites only make up 54% of all abortions, and that includes hispanics 21.5% of white abortions, so non hispanic whites only account for 42.5% of all abortions. It also says that 83% of abortions are to unmarried women. I don't know what percentage of white woman who get abortions are unmarried. Assuming % of marriage populations is the same across teh population, we're talking about 8%. My guess is it may be a bit higher, but nonetheless, it's a very small percentage of all abortions.
