Robin and Lily not being friends was upsetting but it isn't massively out of character for Robin, as somebody set up as Ted's magical soulmate she's actually not very nice.

It's kind of awkward to have Supergirl and not acknowledge Superman in some way but it's probably for the best that they don't.

Yes I can deal with her dying because people die, but the whole I always wanted Robin but she didn't want kids so can I finally make my life complete now that your Mom's dead aspect was gross.

I don't get how a show that made me feel so sorry for Ted when he was left at the altar could have a finale that just filled me with rage. This ending is so much better, but then so is Roseanne revealing the whole thing wasn't real so it's kind of a low bar.

I hope they do as good a job as they've done with Arrow in translating to TV. What are they going to do about her cousin though?

It's probably just a distinction that exists in my own head. I do think not wanting to be pregnant is a good enough reason to have an abortion, I just think if you were in a group sharing abortion stories and one person said the time they almost died from a medical condition most people would say that's not really an…

Good point. I was just surprised a procedure that is carried out in Ireland would be classed as an abortion.

I was surprised Wendy Davis framed an ectopic pregnancy as an abortion as in my mind I see it closer to a miscarriage which is not commonly referred to as a "spontaneous abortion" colloquially, but I understand if one sticks to medical terminology it is correct.

I'm Irish and pro-choice so I'm very familiar with the Savita Halappanavar case. She was denied an abortion of her non-viable fetus but ectopic pregnancies are regularly treated in Irish hospitals and I've never heard the dreaded a-word associated with them before so I was surprised Wendy Davis would class her…

I'm sorry that I was unclear, what I was trying to address was Wendy Davis classifying her ectopic pregnancy as an abortion story, I was surprised by that. I am absolutely pro choice and I live in Ireland where abortion is illegal, I was surprised that procedures that are carried out here are considered abortion. Any…

I think any abortion deemed necessary by the person seeking the abortion is a necessary one. I'm sorry for your experience. I was attempting to draw a distinction between emergency surgery and a considered decision, which is perhaps just a distinction that exists in my own mind.

I agree, what I was trying and obviously failing to say clearly is that I wouldn't have thought most people would consider an ectopic pregnancy or other medical emergency story to be an abortion story. I do believe that all abortions deemed necessary by the person having the abortion are necessary abortions.

I understand it's just I'm surprised Wendy Davis would class an ectopic pregnancy as an abortion, I don't think many women who had been through the same experience would consider it an abortion story but that's more to do with how loaded the term abortion has become.

I completely understand that and in those cases those women can feel secure in knowing they had made the right choice.

I am aware of women being denied abortions, I'm Irish it's still illegal here but you can be treated for an ectopic pregnancy in an Irish hospital. I just meant in terms of sharing an abortion story, an ectopic pregnancy reads to me like the story of a time someone almost died, rather than a time they decided to end a…

I see your point. All abortions are medical treatment. I'm not trying to draw a distinction between what's acceptable or not. I'm just hesitant to call the kind of situation where the fetus cannot be saved by the same name. I suppose it's down to stigma, I wouldn't want to imply to a woman that had come close to death…

I would consider more along the lines of a miscarriage that requires medical intervention. As a pro-choice person I think an abortion requires a decision to be made, otherwise it's just medical treatment.

I'm aware of that, I just meant the ectopic pregnancy scenario is a medical emergency it's not a situation where anyone weighs up the pros and cons of continuing the pregnancy. I know there are other similar circumstances but when there is no alternative I don't consider it a termination, I consider it treating the…

It's really brave of her to share her experience.

I remember that one!
