In Georgia the big thing is “fetal pain”- it’s inhuman to get an abortion after 20 weeks because allegedly the fetus can feel pain.

Yes. I am 10 weeks pregnant, and based on movies and TV, I expected my first ultrasound to be this deeply emotional experience that would bring me to tears. Instead I was like “So everything is fine? Great. Please get this gooey stick out of my vagina.”

If the technology got so advanced that you could do fertilization in a pregnancy chamber or even remove a fetus (or blastocyst or whatever level of development you want) and put it in said chamber and have it develop healthily, they’d still ban it for being “unnatural”. See the reaction to designer babies or cloning.

My almost 8month pregnant ass stupidly weighed in on a man’s pro-life discussion on Twitter this morning, they thought it was barbaric to get an abortion post 20 weeks. Totally ignoring that only around 1.2% of abortions happen that late. As more and more forced birthers kept piling on they all kept wanting to know…

If life was just determined by heartbeat then every time a married person flat-lined and was brought back, would their significant other now be a widow or widower, would they have to remarry? Heart function often can’t be detected until week 8 anyway, it’s why doctors wait so long for a first appointment. I didn’t…

Traumatized adult men cannot justify the anal rape of minor children due to their own past trauma. There are consequences for this horrific act.

I suspect that as women are not necessary as incubators, the outcry will subside.

Youre not a real person to me until youre old enough to deliver me a pizza.

At five weeks of gestation? How many women even realise they are pregnant at that limit?

*nods* It’s the kind of statement you need to get the phrasing right on, I think.

Trust me, they’ll find the right man for the job!

I’ve got a $100 on him pardoning Charles Kushner.

at least france has women’s rights minister, we are never getting that

I feel proud that I live in an enlightened country that would never have anything to do with an old rich man who possesses no regard for the rights of women and.......

“I can’t believe that I am still being forced to deal with a rape case that I have never expressed remorse for or faced any consequences from.” - Roman Polanski

how lovely that he was given the opportunity to make a choice about his involvement in this event.

I’m rewatching Episode 3 because I was either drunk or i fell asleep (#both) and I don’t remember any of what happened besides the hoodie and the kangaroo.
