You know, I really really wonder the same thing. I’ve been working on practicing empathy, and maybe I will get to a place where I can have empathy for this point of view....but these people have ZERO empathy, they willfully shove pertinent information and experiences out of their brains. There was some thing going…

Thank you for training to be an abortion provider. You are doing god’s work. I wish I could buy you a drink or a coffee or something. 

No one seems to question how medical professionals decide that someone needs surgery, and is not simply looking for people to root around in their body for a couple hours. Like, this is still a medical procedure, medical professionals are going to determine if it’s necessary or not, which is how it should be. And in…

I tried to do some research to see if any special considerations were made, and I couldn’t find anything on this story at all, so I’m going with the default that the Church were a bunch of dicks. 

Damn, hasn’t this woman been through enough without also having to watch Trump talk for an hour?

I guess that SNL sketch was based more in real life than I originally thought.

Also, there was a period of time during reconstruction before Jim Crow was in effect, where black men DID consistently vote and even served in congress and other elected office. Perhaps if this had gone better, if suffragists didn’t feel so betrayed by the 15th amendment, that period of time could have been used to…

As far as I can tell, that is what most true crime shows/movies/podcasts are like, because that’s what people are interested in. 

This too felt confusing, or poorly worded... Okay, so you’re in labor.... I don’t even understand how an abortion would work at this stage, but I imagine it means that it’s an expressed statement that the mother wants her life to be prioritized over the baby’s survival. I have a friend with two younger twin siblings,…

Can you provide some links for that? If they are forced, that is against the law. But I can imagine they are strongly encouraged with incentives. Also, I would imagine Planned Parenthood could remove that IUD at low cost. 

I mean I think you have to either be truly stupid or incredibly ignorant to be anti-choice. Or hate women.

Also, because I didn’t mention this before, there are rare cases where you can get a late term abortion for non-medical reasons, and those are cases of extreme abuse. Situations like women being held hostage, sexually abused, and unable to seek help until they are rescued or taken out of the situation. So they were…

I live to serve. Glad you enjoyed it. 

Ahh MRAs, I bet he also makes the argument that women get pregnant on purpose to get child support from the dude.

They aren’t, they’re both tv series. Mindhunter is based on the *true story* of two FBI agents who took on a project to interview incarcerated serial killers in order to study their psychology. Based on their research, law enforcement now has a better understanding of how serial killers think and how to predict their…

I think the only times it’s not one of things you mentioned is when the woman was completely unable to get abortion earlier for reasons such as but not limited to: being held captive and being raped, being raped by family member, essentially severe sexual abusive and being physically unsafe to seek out medical help.…

Well, they believe that by some miracle SOME of those babies could end up fine. And obviously thousands of women should have to suffer for the miracle possibility. 

Just to not get the greys out of the greys where they belong. No, I want people to control things if it only effects their bodies. If I have an abortion, it does not affect anyone else. If you dump chemical waste in the ocean, get drunk and Yosemite Sam up some kids with your no background check gun, it affects all of…

I agree, I’m glad I made that type. 

I think I remember this story. Yes, like it’s a fucking weird choice, but pro-choice means you get to make the choice I personally wouldn’t. I have friend who had an abortion in her past, and she was asking if she should share it with some people in her life. I asked why she was hesitant and she said “I don’t want…
