“Quite a few wanted sterilization but had difficulty finding a doctor who would do that.”

Yes! I had a very similar experience. There were things and feelings going on at that time which made me feel like shit. Ultimately, though, they weren’t the abortion. I didn’t make the choice lightly, but once it was made it wasn’t regrettable at all. Tears shed here too, but I know I’d do it the same way if done…

As emotionally rolling it was beating myself up for getting pregnant in the first place, the decision to abort remains the single most responsible and well made decision I have ever made. If I hadn’t done it I’d be forever tied to an abusive felon who would’ve ruined my life and that of the baby we would’ve had. And…

Like all the other needless burdens imposed on women seeking abortion, wait times are punitive; they’re not actually based in supporting the free choice for motherhood.

I doubt most women suddenly start considering abortion as a potential choice after they found out they’re pregnant. Abortion likely became a consideration as soon as they became sexually active, at least as a thought experiment.

No fucking shit.

I feel like if any politician cites religion as influencing any decision in policy making they should immediately be disqualified to vote on or create said policies. Research and facts, science, let’s stick to that please.

Uh huh, because some people are told if they leave they will lose their job and they are poor enough that they stay because they must. Or they have no transportation. Or they have no money for fuel to leave. Or they just got leave as of today and are stuck on the highway like my brother, his wife, and their five…

yes. our nation is WOEFULLY lacking in critical thinking skills.

I’m just glad she learned this lesson for a disease like rotavirus instead of something more dangerous or more likely to have long term effects!

It’s not only that, it’s that people don’t know how to critically evaluate the sources that they find. They think everything on the internet is true and if someone wrote something, it must be correct. Look at the damn source and THINK about it.

“I scoured everything I could possibly find about why vaccines might be harmful. I became pretty convinced.”

I love this man and I support his work

I think in the very beginning they were cheap. Here is a picture of the very first Miss America.

The five all have that vaguely thirty-ish Botoxed, fillered, veneered, extensioned, and rhinoplastied look.

And they say that WE look alike! :-/ I can only hope that she really means it when she says that she has grown and changed. I'd feel better if she denounced racist language...

Yeah and I studied for that test for six weeks, and by six weeks I mean I wrote half a page of outline on night one, did nothing for the next five and s half weeks, occasionally looked at the cover of a book, and then panicked and did everything the night before.

I heard this while I was making a salad and I dropped the fucking knife.

Supposedly she worked with her speechwriter for six weeks. Six. Weeks.
