I’m pro-choice, but I’m also in favor of accurate reporting. Where is the evidence that other women in Arkansas have been denied the care Jessa received? We all know that women across America have been denied care following the Dobbs decision, but you specifically state that women in Arkansas without fame and health…

She had a miscarriage. She had a D&C. She’s not hiding behind twisted words or “framing” it. She’s talking about it the same way thousands of other women talk about their pregnancy loss, and she should be allowed to without shame. For me, I often use my miscarriage experience to argue for why abortion access is…

Nice straw man. I also happen to be a no-longer-practicing certified nurse midwife but I led with what (I thought) would lend medical credibility - clearly I was wrong. The FACTS are that she received a D&C and you don’t get a D&C without a verified flat-line. Your OPINION is that she went somewhere to get an abortion…

It’s more accurate to say it’s *claimed* that it can prevent implantation. There’s actually very little evidence it actually does, and the claim originates not in science but in the marketing that went out when the original birth control pills were first introduced and they wanted to encourage women to try them. It…

You don’t have to feel sympathy for her. Having people, doesn’t matter who, telling their stories like this is something that unfortunately needs to keep happening from now until election day because the American public has the attention span of a two-year-old, apparently.

“It’s more performative crap that reduces all of this to some sort of feminist Coachella,” Christina told Jezebel. “Donate to an abortion fund, donate to clinics on the front line. With everything that’s happening at clinics, anything else is a waste of time.”

I work in abortion care. I hate that this is all happening. I both agree and disagree with Christina. We can do both — we can fundraise, donate to clinics and abortion funds to keep access going. We can also be out on the streets, pissed as all hell, showing our righteous anger, demanding that our rights be codified…

The thing about liberals and some leftists being thirsty as f**k to prove how clever and above it all they are by claiming that they “both seem to be terrible people” (as many in this sites comment section have done) is that it’s..... based on what? Besides trying their hardest to maintain the illusion of…

It’s so bizarre that people are this threatened by the idea that beauty comes in all flavors.  If you’re not personally interested, move along!  No one is coming to your house to force you to love a certain way, except for conservatives.  What a boring world we would live in if everyone enjoyed exactly the same thing.

“If any of you are questioning whether or not your vote matters, I get it. But remember that state lawmakers are the ones who will determine whether abortion is safe, legal, and accessible in your communities. And we are the ones who determine our state lawmakers.”

I agree about that rating were definitely on Kris’ mind.  But I also think we as a society are not allowed to talk about mixed feelings or disappointment about pregnancies.  It’s like it’s happening so get on board.  Put on a happy face.

Absolutely agree. Even if the coathanger is no longer the method of choice (even if it never was) it did happen. Some women were desperate and scared enough to do that, and a lot of other things besides (pure bleach injected into the womb was the one that I found almost as horrifying). The right has gotten a lot of…

Couldn’t disagree with this take more, sadly.

If you’re sincere in this and not just trolling, I have to urge you to read Blaker’s Fundamentals of Extremism (or, probably, any number of other books on the Christian right written more recently). The hardcore religious right that makes up the base of the anti-abortion movement also supports corporal punishment for…

Actually devoted Christians (yes, even Evangelicals) didn’t much give a shit about abortion until women’s lib came along and “threatened the family” in the late 60s/early 70s. Catholics were the only ones who really cared about it in mid-20th century America. When the Moral Majority saw women moving out of the house an…

It was a dumb, corny joke. Like I don’t even care if they’re taking a shot at Pinkett Smith. She’s a fantastically rich celebrity, she can take it. But it was just lame.

I know it’s a serious subject and all, but Blackburn’s concern about the mean words said about ‘pro-life’ women is absolutely hilarious.

Don’t give these people free advertising with that header image. There are plenty of photos of the brave and caring clinic escorts who stand outside clinics with insults, threats, and painful noise pollution being hurled at them. Feature the people bearing the brunt of this harassment, not a cherubic peacefully…
