Izinga lokukhishwa kwezisu laseMelika liyehla-kodwa kulinganiselwa ukuthi owesifazane oyedwa kwabane baseMelika usazokhipha isisu eneminyaka engu-45 ubudala, ngokombiko omusha oshicilelwe ku- Ijenali yaseMelika Yezempilo Yomphakathi. Ucwaningo, olusekelwe kudatha kusukela ngo-2008 kuya ku-2014 (izibalo zakamuva ezitholakalayo), lwenziwa yi-Guttmacher Institute, inhlangano yocwaningo nenqubomgomo ezibophezele ekuthuthukiseni impilo namalungelo ocansi nokuzala.

Ukulinganisa izehlakalo zokuphila kokukhipha isisu, abacwaningi baseGuttmacher bahlaziye imininingwane evela ku-Abortion Patient Survey yabo (inhlolovo yezikhungo eziyi-113 ezingezona izibhedlela ezifana nemitholampilo namahhovisi odokotela abazimele ahlinzeka izisu ezingaphezu kwezingama-30 ngonyaka). Ngo-2014, bathola ukuthi cishe amaphesenti angama-23.7 wabesifazane abaneminyaka engama-45 + babekhiphe isisu esikhathini esithile empilweni yabo. Uma lo mkhuba uqhubeka, lokho kusho ukuthi owesifazane oyedwa kwabane uzokhipha isisu eneminyaka engama-45.

Yebo, lokhu kuseyingxenye ebalulekile yabantu, kepha kunjalo kuyinto ukwehla kusuka ekulinganisweni kuka-Guttmacher kuka-2008, okubeka izinga lokuphila kwesisu ngesikhathi esisodwa ezintathu abesifazane. Kusukela ngo-2008 kuya ku-2014, uGuttmacher wathola ukuthi izinga lokukhipha isisu e-US lehle ngamaphesenti angama-25. Izinga lokukhipha isisu e-U.S. Liphansi kunawo wonke selokhu uRoe v. Wade ngo-1973-mhlawumbe ngenxa yokuthi izinga lokukhulelwa okungahleliwe liqhubeka nokuhla ngenxa yokwanda kokutholakala kokulawulwa kokubeletha.

Lokhu sekushiwo, kuneminye imininingwane okufanele icatshangelwe:

Izwe laseMelika lokukhipha isisu nokulawulwa kokuzalwa lishintsha ngokushesha nangokuqhubekayo.

Isibonelo, ngo-Mashi, uMongameli uDonald Trump wasayina umthethosivivinywa ozovumela ohulumeni bezwe nabasekhaya ukuthi bavimbe uxhaso lukahulumeni lwezinhlangano ezihlinzeka izisu ezinjengePlanned Parenthood. I-Obamacare (eyagunyaza umshwalense wezempilo wabaqashi ukuthi unikeze izinhlobonhlobo zezinketho zokuvimbela inzalo ngaphandle kwezindleko ezengeziwe kubantu besifazane) ayikaphonswa ngaphandle ngokuphelele, kodwa abaphathi bakaTrump bakubeke kwacaca ukuthi bazothatha indawo yoMthetho Wokunakekelwa Onganakekelwayo ngomthetho wabo. uhlelo lwakho lokunakekelwa kwempilo-okungenzeka ukuthi ngeke lunikeze ukufinyelela okufanayo kokuvimbela inzalo. Lokhu kubangela inkinga (kokubili kwabesifazane nasekuhlaziyweni kwezibalo zokukhipha isisu), ngoba ukwehla kokutholakala kokulawulwa kokuzalwa kungaholela ekukhulelweni okungafuneki, kepha uma kunzima ukukhipha izisu, okunye kwalokhu kukhulelwa kungafakwa esikhathini.

Ukuhlaziywa kukaGuttmacher akubandakanyi iminyaka emithathu yokugcina yedatha yokukhipha isisu.

Ukutholakala kwezisu kanye nenhlangano yezinhlangano ezihlinzeka izisu kushintshe kakhulu kule minyaka embalwa edlule (isibonelo, izingcezu ezingama-431 zemithetho evimbela ukukhipha isisu yethulwe kwikota yokuqala yonyaka ka-2017 kuphela). Lokho kungenzeka kube nomthelela omubi ezingeni lokukhishwa kwezisu njengoba lezi zibalo zaqoqwa. Nakuba leyo mikhawulo yokuhushula izisu ingase ibangele ukuncipha kwenani lokukhishwa kwezisu, lokho kungasho ukuthi kube nokuzala okungafunwa.

Isilinganiso esisodwa kwezine sithatha ukuthi amazinga okukhishwa kwezisu esikhathini esizayo azofana nalawo eminyaka edlule engu-50 noma ngaphezulu.

Abaphenyi basusele lesi silinganiso esisodwa kwezine esilinganisweni sabesifazane abaneminyaka engama-45 nangaphezulu abaye bakhipha isisu esikhathini sabo sokuphila. Lezi zici zokukhishwa kwezisu okwenziwa phakathi neminyaka engu-50 noma ngaphezulu edlule, kunenani elenziwa ngempela unyaka nonyaka njengamanje.

Idatha ayifaki konke ukukhishwa kwezisu okwenziwa e-U.S.

Imininingwane yabo ayikunaki ukuhushulwa kwezisu okwenziwa ezibhedlela (ngonyaka ka-2014, okwakulingana namaphesenti angu-4 akho konke ukukhishwa kwezisu) noma abesifazane abazama ukuqeda ukukhulelwa kwabo ngezindlela ezingagadiwe. (Yebo, kuyadabukisa kepha kuliqiniso; abesifazane abaningi ngokwengeziwe bebelokhu begogoda ngokukhipha izisu nge-DIY.)

Akunakwenzeka ukwazi ukuthi kuzokwenzekani ngamazinga okukhipha isisu esikhathini esizayo, kusalindwe izinguquko endleleni amalungelo okuzala aphathwa ngayo e-US Kodwa kunento eyodwa eqinisekile: Ukukhipha isisu akuyona into engavamile-ngakho uma udlula ulwazi noma usunalo, awuwedwa.

Vele, akekho noyedwa ophuma ne- umgomo yokukhipha isisu, ngakho izinga eliphansi lokukhipha isisu liyinto enhle-ngaphandle uma kungenxa yokuthi ukukhipha isisu akuyona inketho. Kungakho ukunika abesifazane amandla okuphatha impilo yabo yokuzala nokwenza ukutholakala kokuzalwa kutholakale kubaluleke kakhulu kunakuqala.
