No one likes abortion. The cure of being anti choice, however, is worse than the disease. The cure is punitive and will always disproportionately hit women and poor women the most. The cure involves scaring OBGYNs out of business. It involves tracking women’s personal information, medicines, and where they travel. It leads to doctors refraining to treat women until they’re in shock. It leads to awful painful cases that do more damage to women’s bodies that could be easily avoided. And it opens up Pandora’s box of IVF embryos. If life begins at conception then don’t all of those embryos deserve to live? It opens pandora’s box on medicine. Is birth control a form of abortion?
Hate abortion?
Want to actually build a pro life movement?
1. Support comprehensive sex edu. Abstinence only isn’t helpful.
2. Support free birth control.
3. Support stronger laws against rape and sexual assault. Require that men pay child support.
4. Support local public schools and universal health care.
5. Provide additional funding for pre-k and child care. This might require higher taxes (ohhh noooeeess).
Otherwise, you’re just part of the anti choice movement that isn’t helping anything.
