Since vagina probing but this is such an outright attack on women. It's unbelievable.
I posted another thread that goes further voicing my anger in GD. I remember when bc was illegal and how Griswald and then Baird and Roe liberated the portion of our lives controlled by biology. It's always been a fight but at least we were moving forward
I would need a good surgeon and chemistry set to become pregnant at my age but I am hoping women in my age group stand up. Ginsberg did.
These men are not going to stop trying to fuck with us. We have to remember that. We can't sit back because look what happens when we think we're safe.
