    Yup, or if you look at rape exemptions it’s the same. The victim is required to identify their rapist with harsh penalties for a false identification.

    Particularly terrible when you think of the position this puts a child in with their family members. Further, those laws often require victims to submit to a rape screening, something that’s hard to pull off given how underreported rape is.

    And of course if there’s any question the legal system will prevent an abortion forcing a birth. You can’t wind back time and cases taking a year or more to resolve are extremely common.
