I’m pro-choice & pro-life.
I’m pro-Barbara who found out at her 20 week anatomy scan that the infant she had been so excited to bring into this world had developed without life sustaining organs.
I’m pro-Susan who was sexually assaulted on her way home from work, only to come to the horrific realization that her assailant planted his seed in her when she got a positive pregnancy test result a month later.
I’m pro-Theresa who hemorrhaged due to a placental abruption, causing her parents, spouse, and children to have to make the impossible decision on whether to save her or her unborn child.
I’m pro-little Cathy who had her innocence ripped away from her by someone she should have been able to trust and her 11 year old body isn’t mature enough to bear the consequence of that betrayal.
I’m pro-Melissa who’s working two jobs just to make ends meet and has to choose between bringing another child into poverty or feeding the children she already has because her spouse walked out on her. (Maybe one of those is a minimum wage job at Hobby Lobby, and she can’t afford birth control because her employer went to the Supreme Court to make sure her insurance plan doesn’t cover it.)
I’m pro-Brittany who realizes that she is in no way financially, emotionally, or physically able to raise a child.
I’m pro-Emily who went through IVF, ending up with SIX viable implanted eggs requiring selective reduction in order to ensure the safety of her and a SAFE amount of fetuses.
I’m pro-Jessica who is FINALLY getting the strength to get away from her physically abusive spouse only to find out that she is carrying the monster’s child.
I’m pro-Vanessa who went into her confirmation appointment after YEARS of trying to conceive only to hear silence where there should be a heartbeat.
I’m pro-Lindsay who lost her virginity in her sophomore year with a broken condom and now has to choose whether to be a teenage mom or just a teenager.
I’m pro-Courtney who just found out she’s already 13 weeks along, but the egg never made it out of her fallopian tube so either she terminates the pregnancy or risks dying from internal bleeding and horrific pain.
I’m pro-Renee who developed eclampsia and in her third trimester and had to terminate her pregnancy or else she and her much loved baby would die.
Also pro-Lorraine who found out two weeks before her due date that her baby’s heart wasn’t beating anymore, and had to be induced so she wouldn’t develop a life threatening infection.
You can argue and say that I’m pro-choice all you want, but the truth is: I’m pro-life.
Their lives.
Women’s lives.
You don’t get to pick and choose which scenarios should be accepted.
It’s not about which stories you don’t agree with. It’s about fighting for the women in the stories and the CHOICE that was made for them, by them.
Women’s rights are meant to protect ALL women, regardless of their situation – or how big their bank account is. Because, let’s face it, rich people’s daughters and mistresses (yes, even the ones who voted for anti-abortion bills) will always be able to find safe abortions.
They did before Roe v Wade. Most poor women will still get abortions too, whether from centuries old, unsafe home methods or from opportunistic untrained, unsafe people. Roe v. Wade didn’t create abortion. It ended poor, desperate women and girls dying from them and making decisions about their lives.
If I read the document correctly, this does now open us up to require medical procedures like vasectomies of all men until marriage as it removes the blocker from the government telling us what we can do with our bodies.
So maybe thats the logical next step, mandate vasectomies of all men at birth and upon marriage it can be reversed?
The real issue here is the brief being leaked from the high court of the land! A pure and simple Political move months before the midterm elections. The leak may not be totally illegal, but is unethical and damaging to our judicial system.
A political move by who? Each ideological side could benefit from leaking it, as it appears to have motivated both conservatives and liberals.
Thank you Kevin.
The Dim’s flipped from mandatory vaccines to “my body, my choice” overnight!
Good point.
