I have to agree with Imp here. Over the last 5 or so years, the definition of rape has changed so much that basically any woman who wants an abortion will just say "but he raped me", and then she gets the abortion and the guy's life is ruined. Until the legal and social definitions of rape clearly define that sex you regret is not rape and that 2 drunk/high people having sex is not rape, until people stop just taking one woman's accusation as proof of rape and trying to ruin a guy's life over it (heck, just look at the comments on the linked article where one guy says Trump, Thomas and Kavanaugh are rapists), and until provably false rape accusations are actually punished, having a rape exception in abortion laws is just going to get more men falsely accused.
Which part? The Roe legal documents mention rape, and she confesses to lying about it in almost every interview she did. The deathbed confession doesn't invalidate it either because she never says anything she was paid to say was a lie in that, although the clever editing heavily implies it.
Should a 10-year-old girl who is raped be able to get an abortion, or not?
Is the baby viable? Is the girl physically mature enough to carry the pregnancy?
What was the rate of preteen rape pregnancy abortion compared to elective abortion prior to the new law?
Circumstances matter, not just a sympathetic victim

Reminder that Norma McCorvey, aka Jane Roe of Roe v Wade fame, made up her rape story to justify her ritual child sacrifice.
Nah, she admitted to it like 5 years after, and she became anti abortion, up until she died in 2017.
