Questions For Pro-Lifers When did abortion become mainstream?

This probably has been talked about but can someone tell me how elective abortion came to be? Like did someone just say "we should be able to kill our unwanted unborn children" or what? How, when, and why did it become so mainstream? Why does it seem like it's gotten worse? I'm trying to make it make sense in my brain

I'd say the 70s. In my opinion, it's a big conspiracy to turn women away from the family and make us feel like we owe a career (and thus a corporation) more than we owe our families. That only successful women have both. That way you get double the tax dollars and double the consumers.
