I dislike the term “crying rape,” but otherwise I agree that people on both sides need to stop comparing transvaginal ultrasounds to rape. However invasive a transvaginal ultrasound (or any unwanted ultrasound) may be, it is disrespectful to rape survivors to compare it to a violent crime of power and control.
I understand your objection to...

When There Was No Choice: by Sharon Lerner →

“On the anniversary of Roe v. Wade, those who remember the days of illegal abortion fight to keep that time a distant memory.

At 77, Dr. Harry S. Jonas can still pinpoint the exact moment when he understood the importance of making abortion legal. The year was 1952 and he was an eager, young obstetrics-gynecology intern in Independence, Miss.....

inflateablefilth:
They seriously do. At least lifers admit they don’t want me to have a choice. Choicers let me have a choice, but as long as it’s within what they’ve defined as acceptable. Outside of that, well, I’m just an irresponsible, childish [ableist slur], ain’t I?
When people say “using abortion as birth control” — however inaccurate because an abortion IS birth...

My home state is trying to become the leader in anti women legislation with an insulting piece of legislation dubbed the “Women’s Right to Know Act” which would not only force an unnecessary medical procedure, a mandatory 14 DAY waiting period-(RIDICULOUS for women with difficulties finding…

“When Rick Santorum thumbed his nose at Obama’s drive for higher education, he opened the floodgates for criticism. Watch as Jon Stewart schools him on the actual meaning of a ‘snob.’”(via Jon Stewart Defends Barack ‘Snoboma’ - The Daily Beast)
As John Stewart says, being a “snob” implies excluding a group. Wanting everyone to have the chance to go to college if they so...
Isn't it ironic?
eternalhomeinheaven:
Isn’t it ironic that when I start posting pro life things all the haters come out and attack me then demand to know my sources? Once I post those sources I either get told to give them neutral sources or they totally ignore my sources because they hurt the pro choice propaganda. The truth of the matter is that the pro choice movement has zero legs to stand on, fear prayers...
eternalhomeinheaven asked: I have posted sources. It's your job to go look them up.

eternalhomeinheaven:
Most people think that abortion is really only used in extreme cases. That is, cases that are easier to rationalize. Unfortunately, abortion is legal for and used for pretty much any reason. This all comes back to Doe v Bolton. Not only did that decision extend legal abortion to all 9 months,…
As someone else said: your sources are from 1973. Find an unbiased...

“On the morning of October 29, a woman participating in OWS was sexually assaulted at Liberty Plaza.” This was the opening of the November 4 statement released by the NYC survivors’ support team (an offshoot of Safer Spaces OWS) responding to a sexual assault that had become a lightning rod within the movement—and for its agenda-laden critics.
In November, those critics...

FUN FACT
dayneprescott:
Norma McCorvey, aka Jane Roe from Roe vs Wade, is the lady who fought for the legality of abortion in the United States. She is now a HUGE ADVOCATE FOR THE PRO-LIFE MOVEMENT.
Aaaand? She made a choice. That’s what pro-choicers advocate. We don’t kick people out of humanity for changing their minds. It doesn’t undo Roe V. Wade or make it less relevant or...
My Opinion?
theangryadvocate:
When somebody says, “We need to make contraceptives and abortion illegal,”
all I hear is “we need to control women and their bodies.”
But I must be CRAZY right? Since there are women who stand for the exact same thing.
