I think it's reaaaaalllly distasteful. I'm all for pro-choicers having a symbol but that one is just awful - awful. And too close to home for the many, many women who have dodgy abortions in back-street clinics and end up permanently scarred if not dead.

I'm sure there are many icons out there that symbolise choice that aren't as offensive as a coat hanger. It's in very poor taste IMO.
