How can the social quagmire of abortion be resolved...

...when only about 15% of elected offices are held by women?

By encouraging qualified female candidates to run for office, supporting their candidacy, and voting for them. Encourage others to do the same, a grassroots movement might just do enough to do some good.Keep in mind that there's a notable pro-choice percentage even amongst men. Progressive male candidates could use your support as well.If you refer to the United States in particular, the largest issue is the Supreme Court, which is most influenced by the President. Voting for a pro-choice president will be influential there.

While abortion obviously affects women's bodies, maybe that is only 15% of the issue? Perhaps the other 85% are social, religious and scientific? So the parts dedicated to women's reproductive rights aren't the major parts of the issue, but rather the unknown and arguable stuff that I just gave an 85% weight.
