Is abortion ever ethically justified under normal circumstances? By that I mean pregnancies which are terminated out of pure convenience for the woman, rather than because of rape, or instances where the birth of a child would be severely damaging either to itself or to the mother, and would be incapable of maintaining a secure and nurturing environment.
no anti-natalist arguments pls, I'm talking specifically about the morality of the act of abortion, not the ethical position against raising children in general.
