Yeah, this seems kinda messed up, but if everyone involved enjoyed it, then whatever.

Jurors aren't supposed to be exposed to media surrounding the case, though obviously that's kind of unrealistic now.

Yeah, I find it really frustrating. I do understand their concerns about her, but some take it to this weird misogynistic place where they’re making things up, and I’m not going to support that for any reason.

Ouch. “Miscellaneous comments.” Hurtful.

I think you’re thinking of his press secretary, Simone Sanders.

Thank you. As a Bernie supporter, I am soooo sick of these ridiculous attacks on Hillary by other Bernie supporters. You can’t say she’s useless trash just because you disagree with her on some things. Ugh.

I’m not sure that would solve this particular issue, but it couldn’t hurt... though I don’t think minors should ever be sterilized.

Right?! How hard is it to make a phone call? Uuuugh.

So glad you said that. The fact that only mothers are expected to put their kids before all else is so ridiculous.

I’m sorry you went through all that, but thank you for sharing. People don’t like to believe that adoption isn’t as easy as “snap your fingers and don’t be a shitty person,” but it obviously isn't.

Why don’t we just sterilize every woman we can get our hands on? There are plenty of kids to adopt!!!!

Omg, THANK YOU. That is such an insane position and it’s so common. It feels like more of people telling women that they don’t deserve control over their bodies.

Who said anything about her being special? What's different about her is that she had a new medical procedure that doctors thought might be effective. How hard is that to wrap your head around?

It isn’t pearl-clutching to think it’s stupid and insulting to publicly make unfounded negative assumptions about the most personal aspects of a stranger’s life.

Are you one of the doctors working on this? Why do you think you know the risks of the procedure better than they do?

Yes, every single American Christian woman is a brainwashed idiot, as is every woman who wants to experience pregnancy/have biological children. Congrats on being so vastly superior to the majority of the women in this county!!! You're awesome!!!!!

What a weirdly judgmental thing to say about the parenting skills of a stranger in a hypothetical situation.

And for putting on makeup, and brushing your hair, and wearing any clothing that isn't 100% practical...

Yup, and because wives are seen as an extension/reflection of their husbands. Patriarchy!

Yes, I completely agree. Drives me crazy when my fellow cis people feel the need to make trans people’s stories fit the “Born this Way” narrative when they don't. Thanks for pointing it out.
