The fact is, framing abortion as a debate harms us all.
ByIn social theory, framing describes a collection of stereotypes and anecdotes that people rely on to understand and respond to events. The choices they go on to make are influenced by their creation of the frame. In journalism, certain words and images are used to “frame” issues that can change a reader’s perception without having to alter the facts.
The other thing we should be wary about? Abortion is still a criminal offence in the UK unless two doctors agree that continuing a pregnancy would be risky for the physical or mental health of the woman. The Abortion Act in 1967 transformed women’s healthcare in the UK by legalising terminations in England, Wales, and Scotland up to 28 weeks. That limit has since been reduced to 24 weeks.
