12. My friends who are practicing Catholics and who have had abortions

don't think of it as anything that requires forgiveness, the same way they regard using the pill to space out their children or prevent more when their families are complete. It's simply women's health care, none of the church's damned business.

Celibate old men have no business meddling in women's health care, in other words, so there is nothing there that requires any level of forgiveness on their part.

It doesn't occur to them to confess any of this stuff. None of it is sinful except to old men who are anatomically exempt from needing any of it. Let them confess their own abortions, if they ever have them.
