perhaps
“oh, gosh, your personality is refreshing and you are overall marvelous. i would be most happy to date you”

Sedgh said she and colleagues found a link between higher abortion rates and regions with more restrictive legislation, such as in Latin America and Africa. They also found that 95 to 97 percent of abortions in those regions were unsafe.
