1/3 is being generous. A complete sideshow of the horror that she is would require its own website.

Calling her a clown suggests she’s in on the joke and hovers between amusing and terrifying.

It also takes days to actually become pregnant after sex. Sperm are viable for up to 5 days (usually less), eggs for 24 hours. The mechanism of plan B is to try to delay ovulation until the sperm are no longer viable. It doesn’t do much if you’ve already ovulated. (Although, the good news is that eggs are only viable…

The current far-right, ultra-conservative, fundamentalist Christian faction controlling the country is incompatible with a free society. I’m begging Americans to wake up and not allow the paradox of tolerance to destroy their country. It’s time to fight them in all the ways you can, but most importantly, it needs to…

stopped giving emergency contraceptives to pregnant victims of rape and incest,

So now people are going to suffer because they might have an abortion as a side effect of the medications they need to stay alive or out of pain.

I see your point, but I can also see how “birthing” or “menstruating” women might not appreciate being reduced to their body parts/ability to give birth. Cis/trans is at least neutral in this context. I feel like detaching reproduction from gender is better for all women, and these terms only serve to reinforce.

I think what folks like Midler are responding to is the fact that, as women’s rights are being taken away and attacked, lefty organizations have responded by using gender neutral language to describe things that are widely to experienced as women’s issues (e.g. giving birth). This language, which is intended to be…

And in other news after many false starts Boris Johnson may FINALLY be fucked due to the Chris Pincher situation, his now former Deputy Whip who resigned a few days ago for sexually assaulting two men.

their efforts to make language more inclusive would not involve removing the term ‘woman’ from the language, because the midwifery profession is very much aware of its history and that it provided a counterpoint to male doctor-centric hospital birthing practices that emerged in the past couple of centuries. Women were…

Are we also doing away with the word ‘men’ for ‘penis-havers’ or ‘insemination-capable people’?

With the right wing firmly in control of the SC, a GOP congress will pass a nation-wide ban, let the blue states fight it all the way to the SC, confident that those assholes will ignore the rule of law and uphold it.

children getting raped and impregnated is a normal fact of life

The tone of this article almost suggests children getting raped and impregnated is a normal fact of life

This is shockingly naive since many Republicans in Congress are already talking about a Federal ban should they regain power.

In Mississippi there is a case that was in the news last week. A number of years ago a 15 year old was impregnated by a 20 yo. Statutory rape, he does his time then sues for paternal visitation, the kicker is she has to pay him child support while the child is with him, he has never paid her support.

Not to mention that plenty of states with trigger laws are seeking to make it illegal to go to another state to do it...

Not to mention, a few weeks from now it would’ve been illegal in Indiana, too.  

I am not shocked or surprised by this at all. The cruelty was the point. Making rape victims carry their rapist’s child is completely fine for these people. This Rapists Court (credibly accused President, two credibly accused justices.) I blame everyone that didn’t vote and the white women that voted for Trump.

It has nothing to do with the unborn and never has, their own actions have proven that over the years, they vote down everything that would benefit women/ children/ minorities etc. This is about control done under a false pretense. America was never a Christian Nation, nor was it founded on it, read the…
