- if YOU don't want to have kids, make sure that YOU won't make any woman pregnant. Snip-snip is your option.
Don't count with OTHER people being responsible. Make sure YOU are.
What's stupid about a woman being raped and getting pregnant by her rapist? A 10 year old being raped by an uncle and she ends up pregnant by him? An ectopic pregnancy? None of these are stupid. These are real life situations that happen to women every day in this country.

Rape or ectopic pregnancy, or any pregnancy that should be terminated for medical reasons aren't "accidental".
That's not what I meant.
With "accidental" I meant: ooops, I forgot to take a pill, ooops I don't like to wear condom, ooops I didn't know I can get pregnant from one time sex and other ooopses.

Women have not lost any rights. Abortion has not been made illegal in America. A woman can still travel to a state where abortion is legal or, if she plans on using abortion as birth control, maybe move there for the sake of convenience.


For men, there is only one consideration. If you don't want to make a baby, don't do what you know damn well could make a baby.


It seems like at least half of this country has lost control of its genitals. Sad.

Imagine being this angry day and night, about an issue that doesn’t even impact your life. Being angry on behalf of others is a pathetic life mantra

Does unintended instead do it for you? Even stupid people do not deserve to be shamed and punished, or forced to birth, actually especially stupid people.

It is anger yes, the women's lives and their bodies and health are being played with and shamed. But it is also intense grief for those who now have to struggle with no means to travel or the money.

Maybe the woman should have kept her legs together or used proper protection. If she's smart, she either makes her partner wear a condom, or make sure she's on the pill or another contraceptive device. If she's really really smart, she doesn't get herself in that position - supine.

Blasphemy! It’s ALWAYS the MANS fault for getting a poor unsuspecting woman pregnant! MEN should keep it in their pants! There mere sight of a penis can make a woman pregnant! In fact, if you put 2 men in a room together, they can become pregnant! Two women? Nope. That’s all the science I need!!

So this punishing women for becoming pregnant because of having sex. Why don't we just call it that?
