Since vasectomies are reversible, how about the red state lawmakers, judges, prosecutors, and clerics force every young man to have one until he’s emotionally and financially fit to be a father. Imagine that. Regulating a man’s body.
Or even 'stricter guidelines'(what they called for before Dobbs, clinic size, cubic feet, then accreditation...)
for Viagra prescriptions- anal exam probes for each refill, permission letters from wives, expensive full lab work-up, additional certification to prescribe...
They should definitely get an anal probe! But hey, they can get their Viagra from the internet now. Can you imagine if all women could get Mifepristone and Misoprostol from the internet? The FDA has found that medication abortion is a safe and highly effective method of pregnancy termination.
I'm an abortion rights activist in Kansas. Many of the protesters here reject the pro-life label and call themselves abolitionists, advocating no exceptions to abortion bans. They are also religious zealots for the most part who constantly tell those who disagree with them that their magic sky daddy will be judging all of us one day. Reason does not exist in these peoples' universes.
The group of clinic defenders I belong to has taken to protesting on Sunday mornings at the churches these people attend. We've actually driven two of them from the churches they were involved with. It is hugely satisfying and I recommend it as a technique everywhere. Do the same thing they do to patients ... be an unwelcome and intrusive presence at an event they consider important.
You can let the "abolitionists" know that magic sky daddy's sprit is housed in the temple of the. body, which is the property of that magic sky daddy, and no mere human has a right to mess with another human's body
My reason for being pro-choice is Free Will. It’s a tenet of Christianity. I was in my 30s married with two children when Roe v Wade passed and I was happily shocked. I think if I were a young woman today I would either have my tubes tied or get a hysterectomy to be safe from the hysterical autocratic theocrats. Small men in state legislatures don’t know anything about medicine and can’t conceive of the harm they are causing. And another thought: the numbers of miscarriages falling into the toilet and getting flushed is probably too high to count. Where else is it going to happen?
I'm past my reproductive years (58) but spent 28 years suffering from endometriosis and PCOS before I finally got the hysterectomy I needed at 43. Doctors don't listen to women. An elective tubal or hysterectomy is almost impossible to get. Doctors are afraid they'll be sued if you decide you really want kids after all. Hell, my own mother couldn't get her tubes tied in 1965 after I was born because she had "only" five children, not the six or eight then required by state law for a woman to be electively sterilized. So my reason for being pro choice is that women, not governments or churches, should be the ones to decide about their bodies, period.
They cycled me through different birth control pills in my twenties and early thirties, then to different hormones in my late thirties and early forties. I took metformin for the insulin resistance. Your daughter's course of treatment will depend on whether she intends to bear children. I never wanted to which is why the way I was treated is such a sore point. If she does want to conceive there are other things that can be tried. A gynecologist who specializes in reproductive endocrinology would be a worthwhile investment.
My 30 yr old daughter wants her tubes tied. The dr wont do it saying she might change her mind. She pointed out she is a lesbian and her only chance of getting pregnant would be if she was raped. They still said no. We live in Washington State. She plans to find a new dr who will agree.
I have to say it, if the Democrats had not been so timid, so unconcerned and showed such a failure to act , when they had the opportunity , this tragic turn of events might have been avoided. Did they write abortion rights into law? Did they ban assault rifles? Did they curtail the accumulation of power in the office of the president? Did they promote the rights of unions and workers? Did their own Attorney General quickly and vigorously investigate and prosecute the leaders of J6? Did they take any action to dial back the corruption in all levels of government? Only now, with Joe Biden as leader, are Democrats acting like Democrats, after decades of trying to out republican the republicans. Maybe the extreme right did us a favor in reminding us what happens when they are given too much power. ( okay they cheated or stole some of the power they now have.)
I’ve asked these same questions. Where was the will of Dems when they had power to take action?
I still don’t see strong pushback from those Dems either in power now or running in the 2024 election cycle. What are they doing with the dollars I’ve cheerfully given to lots of Dems and Dem orgs over the last decade? Even today I’ve gotten so many emails and texts pleading for end of month/year contributions, which I’m ignoring. I really need to see how they plan to stop the see draconian laws against women.
Democrats are corporate just like Republicans, and also many union leaders who now care more about their elections than they do the workers. (SEIU503). But ALAS!, I have good news! With women are gonna take over! I predict, because
A pregnant person’s healthcare has been top of my mind amongst the many calamities we’ve endured in the last few years. Let’s rebrand pro-life(ers) and call them pro-birth(ers) in print, to their faces, at every turn, to remind them of their repugnant forced beliefs on others. There is nothing pro-life about them. For my entire lifetime, abortion healthcare had been legal, until recently, and something we could all rely on to stay alive and even thrive. But no more. The last three Supreme Court Justice nominees lied in their confirmation hearings and assured us that this was settled law of the land. Through their actions, repubs are letting us know that we can’t have nice things and the life and emotional well being of the pregnant person is secondary or non-existent. There’s so much shame put on women and the functions of their bodies. Women have been raised to give it all away and simultaneously be ashamed of their bodies. It’s exhausting. We have to take back our power now or risk living in some twisted mash-up of 1984 and the Handmaid’s Tale. It sounds grim, but it could get worse if we don’t stand up now. Here’s what I’ve been wondering about: we know that doctors must have an active medical license to be able to practice medicine. In some states, where elected officials and lawyers are now legislating draconian power over women’s bodies, and making medical decisions on their behalf, are they now practicing medicine without a license? If this is the case, shouldn’t said officials be required to go through the same hoops as doctors to obtain a license, or be fined/punished/jailed for not having a medical license? Could this type of challenge happen in the courts? Also, could a family sue the elected officials/lawyers (making those health decisions) if the pregnancy goes south and it results in loss of life? Seems appropriate, since they’ve taken the decision-making away from the pregnant person and their doctor. Over the years, repubs took full advantage of vulnerabilities in the court system to pass anti-abortion legislation. The gloves need to come off and we need to be just as clever, thinking outside the box, beating them at their own game and turning the tables on those who thought banning abortion healthcare (to control women and their bodies) was a good idea. We must vote like our lives depend on it, win and pass legislation to insure this can’t and won’t happen again.
Excellent! All spot on! My granddaughters are 33, 30 and 21 and it galls me no end to think they have less rights than I did for a majority of my adult life. The Rs are determined to take us back to the days when I had to have my ex husband sign off for me to have a tubal ligation back in 1974. We had 2 children and I knew that 2 children was the perfect number for me as a mom. Makes me angry to this day that he had to sign off on a procedure I was electing to have. As you pointed out, the gloves need to come off! Sitting back and doing nothing is not an option! The avenue we are on now will lead us back to women having to get approval like I did back in 1974. And those who think this is hyperbole need only look at the reversal of Roe!!!!
Here here! Yep, you got it, good idea, suing those politicians. I had to sue my neighbors in small claims squirt and when I was reading it they said you could sue practically anybody. in Oregon it's $10,000 so if 100 of us sued a certain politician or sued somebody for not doing their job, we could make some money off that and have some power! It's an idea.
Also I'm predicting 2024 is going to be the year of the woman, let's take over! Because #Women'sLivesMatter. #WLM
Absolutely, I have gone to exclusively calling them forced-birthers & also naming them Dominionists. Anyone not already familiar with that word should look up the 7 mtns or 7 pillars of society, because that is definitely where they are headed with their control.
Alito, Thomas, Coney Barrett, Mike Johnson, Leonard Leo, etc are all Dominionists. This is the fight of our lives & we are already way behind the 8 ball.
Pre-born?! I loathe these terms that anti-abortion nuts come up with, though I know it appeals to the dumbest among them. I guess “clump of cells that aren’t a viable human being” though true doesn’t have the same tug on the emotions.
I imagine that Margaret Atwood is having the last laugh, since so many people considered her book, The Handmaid’s Tale, a dystopian fiction that could never happen here.
And these religion based activists are very much in the minority. Their zealotry has brought them power far beyond their numbers. The rest of us have been complacent and sometimes too preoccupied with daily personal problems, to get involved in politics. That is changing but is it too late? I think not.
Not too late at all. Time for the 9 month concentrated push to the 2024 election. Seems poetic. “You want us to carry full term? Nine months to expel you!!”
It is an outrage what they ( the court and the politicians) did. Total disregard for precedent and a decision largely based on religious beliefs. Now we all must deal with the consequences , which increase each day.
fake christians support trump. they don't mind children being blown to bits by guns. this tells one everything one needs to know about these insane monsters.
Thanks, you are correct. Another aspect: infant mortality rates have risen significantly since Roe v Wade was overturned because women are being forced to carry non viable fetuses.
Thank you James... I had not read your clarification before I posted my questioning of the 23% number, because I knew that just couldn’t be correct, & I always want us to be correct/factual or it will bite us in the a** if we aren’t.
Are you quite sure about that 23% statistic? That ¼ of all pregnant women are dying? That sounds way off. Where did you get that figure?
I am very pro abortion for any reason, but I’m also for us to be accurate in whatever we say. Just want to be sure that the 23% is the percentage of pregnancies that end in the death of the pregnant person, rather than end in miscarriages.
This is an issue that our fathers, brothers, husbands and lovers need to get behind. Men are involved in family planning and child rearing and are being affected by these draconian laws. It’s way past time that we see a movement by men that advocates for freedom of choice.
the leading cause of death for pregnant women is homicide by their partners. only half of american fathers pay child support. to republicans women apparently get pregnant all by themselves because they never seem to bring up the man's role. maybe they don't know.
2024 is going to be "the year of the woman". They better stay out of our way because they're gonna get ran over if they don't. We're taking the country back, and we won't even need guns.
Evidence that this is about dominance is in the statement, “Every child is uniquely precious and should continue to be protected in law no matter how long or short the baby’s life may be.” Efforts to better protect children by law & provide good quality of life are not being made, only these forced births that are probably the worse thing you can do to a child, bringing them into a life where they are not wanted.
Separation of church and state‼️‼️‼️ I can’t fathom how we have come back to this point of women’s lives being controlled by ultra fanatical and insane hideous controlling Religious old men & women who have their heads up their asses and live in evil times of incredulous inhumanity and fall backwards in all regards. I’m presuming that the men and women in this type of cultish rigidity have pea-sized brains that contain one neural pathway, if that. Mental illness is real people 🤗 And these power-driven heathens need to be put away in life long mental institutions.
Human rights and equality are a given. And our laws aren’t withholding given appointed, good old boys that believe the only truth is their truth. I would like it if they would build a man made island and become isolated, stranded and live by themselves and others who have the same ONE neural pathway. Sail away to your own crazy island 🏝️ you foolish idiots
Every one has their own way of choosing to communicate and I usually very direct and simple stated. But I can sure belt it out when I’m frustrated- and here we are. Happy New Year 🎆
For these people it’s all about their magic sky daddy. They truly don’t care about facts, science, life, or anything other than their religion and making as much money as they can of course even if it means tax evasion
They’re all out in the open now and I hope voters are paying attention. We simply can’t afford to lose the country to these idiots
And the women who believe in the magical sky daddy - they are so brainwashed. Very sad. Programmed to judge other women like the Morality Police who murdered Mahsa Amini, because she had her scarf on wrong.
In the short term, some brilliant young filmmaker needs to take these circumstances and make it into a thriller no one will ever forget. So that when we’re on the far side of this shameless horrible gileadism some time in the future, people will remember this history and say, it was like TITLE, only real.
Old white men (who don’t even know basic anatomy of a woman’s body) making medical decisions is nuts. Don’t forget that the very same men deciding that you cannot get an abortion can also make you get an abortion. If times change, they decide you can’t have a child, like China did.
Since vasectomies are reversible, how about the red state lawmakers, judges, prosecutors, and clerics force every young man to have one until he’s emotionally and financially fit to be a father. Imagine that. Regulating a man’s body.
I had posted this some time ago on social media & a guy wrote back “ not to mess with his balls”
Of course he did 🙄
Right!?!

That's a great idea !!!
Sounds good to me.

I also had a hysterectomy at 43 due to adenomyosis. Took me 3 years of bleeding for 24 days out of 30, every bloody month for them to agree.
Any advice on the PCOS would be much welcomed. Our 24 yr old kiddo has just been diagnosed and we are floundering

I got mine tied are age 25 in Texas!! Imagine that!!?? My how things have changed since 1975
Hmmmm. So if a man has a limp dick then that must be God’s will. When are the little blue pills getting outlawed?

It’s hard to comprehend but it comes down to them supporting dead babies over live women. Pro-life my a$$.

I doubt she is laughing.
These men are sadists who can only get off on seeing women in pain.
The maternal death rate in Texas has risen to 23% since the Texas ban was enacted. THAT’S ALMOST 1/4 OF ALL PREGNANCIES!

I think that is 23 per 100,000 live berths or .023 % . Still too high more than double what it was.
Thanks, you are correct. Another aspect: infant mortality rates have risen significantly since Roe v Wade was overturned because women are being forced to carry non viable fetuses.

Of course not. They’re not illegals aliens.🤬

If you check the other comments on my thread you will see that it is 23% out of 100,000 births. I was corrected and very appreciative.
Yes, I saw that correction after I had posted my question & also thanked the person for clarifying.
It’s good to check.😊
This is an issue that our fathers, brothers, husbands and lovers need to get behind. Men are involved in family planning and child rearing and are being affected by these draconian laws. It’s way past time that we see a movement by men that advocates for freedom of choice.
