Totally agree. There may be some squeamish prisses out there but not all guys (or girls) find it gross... my husband for one doesn't care if I'm pregnant, unshowered, menstruating, etc... he is happy to have sex whenever and doesn't think normal bodily functions, fluids, or odors are disgusting.

Period sex is awesome. Maximum lubrication. We have a 1970s era beach towel designated for the act (actually, also for when I dye my hair; efficiency!!).

I am quick to tell people: "I support the absolute right of a woman to choose abortion. I don't give a good goddamn if a woman wants an abortion because she can't find a car seat to match her car's interior. If a women doesn't want a baby, I don't want her to have a baby!"

When you give the anti-choice friends that information, you're interfering with their fantasy world. They don't like it when people point out the very real and dangerous consequences of restricting access to legal abortion.

It's never been about women's safety or health, but always about punishing women for being sexually active, and also an attempt to control them. Closing clinics means that some women will carry pregnancies to term, others will attempt to self-abort using whatever means they find, and others will have to travel much…

More like 18,400+ lives compromised, but YES, TOTALLY.

What they're banning, really, is SAFE abortions. Abortions are going to keep right on happening as they have been in one form or another for basically all of human history. They'll never be successfully banned. Just made varying degrees of unsafe.

A fetus with an AR-15 is the singularity of conservative America. The slogans write themselves.


Only a GOOD fetus with a gun can stop a BAD woman with a doctor!

That definitely seems like someone who should be drafting legislation. Hurrah for the "NO TAX MONEES FOR ABORTON OR OTHER STUFF ARBLE GARBLE" bill of 2014!

Even if the woman in question does decide to continue the pregnancy, how is that a good thing? The reasons she didn't want a baby don't go away, and they're going to have an impact on that child's life.

That's the spirit! Maybe folks can find their daughters unconscious in a pool of blood on the bathroom floor, right? Where there's a will, there's a way. That's that old American can-do attitude.

I think some forced-birthers think it's proper comeuppance if a woman dies from a botched abortion.

Frankly, I'd like my tax money to pay for better educational resources, but it doesn't look like that's happening either.

I think it says something very interesting about the attitude that forced-birthers hold towards women, where they think if they say, "that's it! No more abortions for you, ladies!" then women will all meekly shrug and say ,"Oh well, guess I have to have that baby now!"

This has nothing to do with keeping women safe. If a woman is going to try to have an abortion, they want her to suffer. They don't give a shit if she is seriously harmed or dies. That's her punishment for not accepting the "gift of life."

They don't want to stop abortions, they just want to put whores in their place.

This is a report of a report of a report. How about a quote from the doctor, who seems to be holding his ground. It ads a layer at least: http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2014/07/27/rai…

Well, part of the issue is that American anti-abortionists fucking love murdering abortion providers. Doctors, nurses, receptionists - doesn't matter. They will fucking shoot you down during a church service or set fire to your building. So a lot of hospitals are reluctant to allow abortion, because they don't want…

Ok, I admit I am totally ignorant, having never been in a situation where I needed an abortion - but why would you need an abortion clinic? I grew in Denmark, and there a is no such thing. I always assumed my own GYN or a GYN department at a local hospital would be the right place to go.
Now, living in the US, I am…

The difference is that the United States Supreme Court decided that the Due Process Clause's right to privacy applied to abortion, making the ability to terminate a pregnancy part of our inherent civil rights. When the USC makes a decision, all state and federal courts are obligated to uphold their ruling, meaning no…
