Some Feministing posts of interest (and outrage fermentation).
We can’t change our mind during sex anymore. Our bodies cease to be our own during sex.
South Dakota wants to ban all abortions. The bill is worded so that D&Cs, the procedure used in abortions, would be banned. however, this procedure is often also needed for ectopic pregnancies, miscarriages that are incomplete, and for other gynaecological complications. Ones that can be life threatening.
I have needed them. My children would be orphans without them.
Oh, theres exceptions. When you read what they are, I hope you are sickened as I was by the graphic nature of what they regard as acceptable. The description is frightening - almost pornographic, and one wonders what the mindset behind it is?
Pro lifers huh? A scant bunch of microscopic cells that may develop into a fetus is more important to these people than any other life.
To South Dakota prolifers who are pushing for this bill, you suck. Bigtime.
Actually, pro lifers everywhere? Please consider that addressed to you, too. Stop your cruel protesting outside abortion clinics, and feed the homeless, foster some kids, sponsor decent contraception programs, and help the poor. Then you will stop being major boils on the buttocks of humanity, and actually be worthy of the term ‘pro life’.
