My best friend just had a baby conceived while she had an IUD. She was 9 weeks pregnant before she went to the doctor to find out if she had a stomach virus because she’d been puking a bunch for a few weeks. Scary shit.

I’d say Steve King should be stuffed in a sack filled with venomous snakes and thrown into a river, but then I’d feel bad for the snakes.

The only way to get an abortion is if you wanted one before you were pregnant. Which is crazy. And might turn into a very strange form of protest.

I encountered some forced-birthers outside my local grocery store while I was with my then one-year-old son. One lady went to hand me a flyer and I said “no thank you, I’m pro-choice.” She started yelling that my “poor baby” would “know one day that you don’t value his life!” and I just smiled politely and said “No,…

Too true. Anyone who knows anything about Steve King will not be surprised about any of this. This fucking guy actually opposed legislation banning dog fights (let that sink in for a minute) and said in support of his opposition that no one is banning sanctioned, legal fights between people.

Effing exactly and thank you! This bill pisses me off. It makes me feel ill. I think having been pregnant and having a child has actually made me even more pro-choice—no one should have to go through a pregnancy and childbirth/c-section if they do not want to. I said it before and I’ll say it again: FUCK THESE…

Exactly. I have an IUD so I actually don’t even get a period anymore, and while I know that getting pregnant on it is extremely rare, if it were to fail, who the hell knows how long it would take me to realize it. Getting pregnant is a borderline phobia of mine (to the point that if I did get pregnant, I don’t know…

I totally, legit, straight-up hate him, and I have only watched his shit from afar. I feel for you friend.

I commented on the previous story Jezebel ran about this story about how I didn’t have a positive pregnancy test for my first two PLANNED AND WANTED pregnancies until I was nearly 6 weeks pregnant and I was testing daily because I was late (never am) and thought I was probably pregnant. It easy for me to imagine a…

I actually brought up the abortion issue to my doctor at my last visit. As in, if I needed an abortion and it was illegal, could she refer me to someone in Canada. I feel like I need an emergency plan.

That’s the point.

Call your reps. I once read about a rep staffer who said the reason conservatives can pass certain bills is because their constituents are always calling about things like abortion bans. So, liberals and progressives have to do the same. My rep is against this bullshit.

well apparently they don’t even need to have been BORN yet - they’re US Citizens in the womb; already!

oh shit!

Why the fuck are stupid male politicians making legislation about women’s bodies???!?

“A woman had an abortion? Put her in prison forever! A man put it there? Well you know, boys will be boys something something men’s rights.”

GOP: anyone conceived in the United State is subject to the 14th Amendment and its protections!

This is so fucking overwhelming. I didn’t find out I was pregnant for the first time until week 6, and only because I was taking pregnancy tests constantly. What if I had needed an abortion?? There would be no time to get one! With my second pregnancy the doctor didn’t even have me come in to do the first ultrasound…

“If you don’t want to have a baby,” *pops a viagra* “you shouldn’t have sex.” *texts mistress that the hearing is running long & he’ll be late* “I don’t know why that is so difficult to comprehend” *pats congressional aide’s knee in a “friendly” manner* “You want all of the fun and none-” *texts from misteress* “of…

All this Duggarizing, I swear I’m going to put a mic in my bathroom and toilettime live the tragic flushing of one of my pre-born slackss jr eggs each month. Then I’ll put on devil horns and juggle my birth control pills.

Steve King is the WOOOOOOOOOOOOOORST.
