... that traditional methods of abortion in Niger often favor the color red?

Source: In addition, those considering abortion employ what Gélis (1984) calls “the ‘sympathy’ of color.” Red is usually the color of choice. For these women, it is a question of “turning to the color red in order, of course, to see ‘red.’ ”

Source checks out, and the hook is good and cited in-article. No evidence of copyvio. Article is in good shape and otherwise eligible, and QPQ is good. All good to go! Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 00:48, 31 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
