Totally agree.  It seem like a lot of these celebrity abortion stories revolve around dangerous or unviable pregnancies but we also need to normalize the idea that women’s choice shouldn’t just be because of those factors. 

It is precisely because she recognizes her privilege and the reach of her media pull that she is using her power for educating people that the issue is a lot more common and necessary than people appreciate. And that it affects people who have planned and wanted pregnancies and that it puts women’s physical and mental…

I think that is her point. She never thought of it in terms of it being pregnancy loss AND miscarriage AND abortion. 

Fuck off. Both things can be true: she will likely always have the means to jump on a private plane to another country, but she may also care very deeply that she (and everyone) should not have to do that to get life-saving medical care. Because if these Christian Nationalists have their way with a national ban, that…

I read profiles of fundamentalist Christians who had no idea these schools weren’t accredited. Parents bought the line of shit and refused to let their kids go anywhere else.

Exactly. So many people say they’d never have an abortion, but if they’ve had a miscarriage, they may in fact have had to have an abortion.

Having sent three kids through public and private schools, I would never sign any kind of NDA, especially a Christian Kanye NDA

So, when you typed this comment out, what did you think you were contributing to the discussion? Are you insulting a woman of means for having those means? Or do you think this is a cynical ploy to... what, exactly?

This comment section is giving me a pain.

It’s not clout or selfish if she wanted to chronicle this. She’s notorious (read:hella open) about her life from her implants being removed, to her journey to get pregnant. It’s her choice.

They named the child. They knew what was coming. The child was alive outside the womb briefly. While an abortion, this was a (necessary) loss of life and a loss for them. This still was their child. This is the only tangible recording of this experience. This is heartbreaking, depressing, and a loss known by too…

I am very glad women feel empowered to share their experiences of abortion. (This particular story is a bit weird and confusing but ok.)

It’s gross to me that you feel compelled to lay judgement over someone’s handling of an incredibly painful, emotional experience. You can not like her. But if they found solace and comfort in documenting this and sharing her story, it’s absolutely their right.

No hate like Christian love.

I see Ye is in stage 3 of his very public transformation into a cult leader. 

Love when people normalize medical procedures, definitely the ones that are deemed ‘embarrassing’ or ‘only for the elderly.’ I was diagnosed with stage IV colon cancer at 29 years old. Nothing could have prevented my case, other than having genetic testing done years earlier (I didn’t know I had Lynch Syndrome). I had…

Agreed. My sister was 50 when they found her cancerous cells and since I am one of the younger siblings, I had to get my first two years ago (44 at the time). I’m just glad he’s not streaming the prep, which is far worse than the actual procedure. I’m glad your husband is cancer free. My sister is too. 

Of course he gives zero shits. But making fun of this furthers the stigma of colonoscopies.

FWIW, I agree that he shouldn’t be “made fun of,” and also he’s Ryan Reynolds and he (forgive the pun) gives zero shits about being made fun of. 

Slightly related. Recently I rewatched the infamous Gimme More performance of 2007, which was obviously not up to the Britney performance standards we the public had been used to. She was just going through the motions, not even attempting to believably lip sync, very much when you just show up to work and do the…
