WTF

March16

What the fuck is going on? Is the entire country going insane? Have we completely lost control? Is it possible to regain control?

Fourteen states are making moves to criminalize abortion as well as limit access to contraceptives. It is rolling like a snowball. How many more are planning the same moves?

Is this a conspiracy to overpopulate our nation? For what, I can’t imagine. More to the point is this a conspiracy to turn women into breeders? To force us back into being chattel?

What is frightening is the number of women who support these efforts to take away our choice. Women who don’t support the idea that women are capable of making educated and informed choices about their own bodies! Do they believe that they can not make those choices? Are these women who have been oppressed and belittled to the point of no return and thus believe what their fathers and husbands have told them? That their only job is to have as many children as they can, regardless? Hell!

The important thing to remember about these atrocities being committed against the rights of women and their reproductive choices is that they do not target the wealthy. They target the poor. They affect those who have limited means to survive. They are directed at the unmarried, the victims of incest, abuse and rape, the uneducated, and the young.

I know that the decisions of politicians are not necessarily based on the beliefs and views of their constituents, however somebody voted for these people! Somebody allowed them to take the power. And somebody knew what these lawmakers support and don’t support.

I am afraid for the women in these states, as well as for all of the women in this country.

What can I do to help?
