The result of this Hypocrisies is leading to real abortions, often illegally performed in backyard clinics. In the Philippines the family planning is a taboo issue for all politicians not to draw the wrath of the powerful catholic church. Result: from 1.4 Million unwanted pregnancies 473,000 are aborted - using contraceptives would be the easier method.
