My BFF at a small company where it was realized one of the women was in a domestic violence situation when her BF became unstable and would wait outside for her at work, etc.
Pullman is not a large town, but Pullman’s PP serves not only the student bodies of two public universities (Washington State University in Pullman and the nearby University of Idaho in Moscow, ID), but also the a large swath of the rural Palouse region. I’d be hard-pressed to name a person I knew while attending WSU…
I’m getting tired of hearing “abortion is only a small part of what Planned Parenthood does” and the classifying of which PP clinics provide abortions and which don’t. Even if Planned Parenthood was an industrial abortion factory that offered all abortions 24/7, it is still a legal procedure. It is still an important…
there was a third tablet that got broken. it was on that one.
Yes, but has this been an endemic and widespread problem in Ohio?
The way to address the gender imbalance problem is with gender equity, rather than placing restrictions on women’s access to reproductive health care. Similarly, I’m all for continued improvements and enlightenment re: attitudes toward and resources for people with disabilities. If we have a society where having a…
Of course, once this passes, there will be lots of legislation and funding to assist the families who have been forced to birth a child with disabilities for which they are perhaps not capable of caring/coping/etc. Otherwise, that would just be cruel to both the families and the children.
My aunt made a point to tell me detailed stories about how the women in her (low income) neighbourhood dealt with unwanted pregnancies when she was growing up (everything up to and including suicide, unfortunately), and made me promise to never take access to birth control and abortion for granted. Unfortunately we’re…
And that some of the men have pressured women into having abortions, or at the very least enthusiastically supported their choice to have one. The only moral abortion is my abortion. Every damned time.
I guaran-damn-tee that at least some of the women, maybe even a lot of the women, at these protests have had an abortion. Maybe even through Planned Parenthood.
The baby was delivered by planned C Section, precisely because labour and childbirth would have been so physically dangerous. That poor little girl.
I dropped off some cupcakes to my local PP recently along with a letter all about how I love them and how grateful I am for everything that they’ve done for me. I suggest that everyone else here do the same if they can. SHOW THEM YOUR SUPPORT, GUYS. THEY NEED IT.
And all y’all bitches said vaccines weren’t dangerous. WHO’S LAUGHING NOW?!
No. Nothing about your reaction to your experience is crazy. Everyone’s different.
THIS. So much. I wondered if I was the only person who actually read TKAMB to begin with, because it’s right there in the text.
I donate money every month to Planned Parenthood and will continue to do so for as long as I need to because of these bullshit attacks.
Okay, first of all, I get what this lady is saying but if I ever needed an abortion I would much prefer the tone of whoever is talking to me about it to be “casual”. It’s just a medical procedure, it doesn’t need to be a harrowing and incredibly serious discussion.
I get why she feels the need to apologize, but I don’t…
Thank you. This is precisely how I feel about GSAW. Everything about its release is fishy and I don’t want to participate in it. The manuscript has been around for a very long time. If Harper Lee had wanted it published, she would have done it by now.
