Does she really think that these men speak for God when they tell her how to live her life?

no one can speak for God save himself not even the bible is the words spoken directly from god..the closest thing we have from him is the 10 commandments, everything else was interpreted and some of the gospels were written and far as 100 years after he (Jesus) died...that said i am a catholic however i don't take the bible literally nor my pope because they are men(meaning humans) and not God. That said the 10 Commandments say don't kill (I'm not getting into abortion) its that simple.

A single person CANNOT commit mass suicide. One can only commit a single suicide.
Abortion is not a thing pressed upon a person in such a way as they "refuse" it ... it is not a gift. Rather, they simply choose not to have one, or "refuse" to consider it as an option.
Some preachers .. in fact most, claim to speak the word of God. If they preach from the Bible, they seem to have some credibility.
Then again, I'm not a Christian.

How can a woman commit mass suicide?

No woman has ever committed mass suicide. In fact no one ever committed suicide while attending mass. If you have suicidal thoughts and you attend mass, your suicidal thoughts will be allayed until you are on your way home.
If you commit suicide while on your way home from mass, that's called post-mass suicide.

Jim Jones comes to mind - you know, the one who had his followers drink poisoned kool-aid - point - they weren't all women. Your question should be rephrased to why will people agree to commit mass suicide dictated by a self-appointed leader. As for abortion, most, if not all - religions oppose abortion. So, I suggest you question the 'leaders' - not only the followers - especially when judging only women.

I am a woman.
Any preacher who tries to tell me that he wants me to commit suicide is going to be very disappointed...not to mention, his medical insurance will probably go up.
Any person, male or female, preacher or not, who tries to tell me to murder my baby will be in an even worse case...
That person might find himself talking things over with the Big Guy even sooner than he expected.
Women don't need men to speak for God, or to tell us how to live our lives.
Jesus never limited His ministry to men...that's a male fallacy.

You're ignorant.
ps. "A" woman can't commit mass suicide. But several women can.

Is not the rate of abortions in Western and Chinese and other societies a mode of "mass suicide'?
