“I Cannot Pretend Prochoice Vs. Prolife Is About Women Versus Babies. It Isn't. It Is About Society

“I cannot pretend prochoice vs. prolife is about women versus babies. It isn't. It is about society versus families.

Abortion doesn't save women. It doesn't stop or fix rape. It doesn't end poverty. It doesn't stop domestic violence. It doesn't do anything except undo women's healthy biology, kill her child, and send her right back to whatever circumstances she came from.

Sure, if she just doesn't want to be pregnant, it ends pregnancy. Why doesn't she want to be pregnant though? The replies are along the lines of, "Fuck you. It doesn't matter. It is her choice and right." Ok. Thank you for telling me you care about abortion, not women.

This is what is being offered as the savior for women? This is our freedom? This is our equality? This is the answer we are being offered for children living in poverty, abuse, or neglect? Just pre-emptively guess their fate and kill them? This is what we are being offered as a way to address maternal mortality? Don't attempt to make advancements that address complications that arise in pregnancy, just blame women's biology and kill her kid?

I do not accept that this is the best we can do for women, children, or families. I do not accept that to be free, equal, and safe women have to turn against their biology and their children.”

Something I never thought I’d do:

My husband mentioned before we got married that he loves cheesecake. I took a mental note but was too busy working to actually do anything about it.

Since I came home in October, and he came home from deployment, I’ve been less stressed and happy as can be. So what did I do tonight?

I baked a cheesecake simply because he likes it.

That is something I never thought I’d do.

if you are a woman who wants to be a wife and a mother its actually important that the man you say yes to date, be in a relationship with, and marry actually has skills, resources, and drive. its important that he is honorable and his actions show it. its important he is *actually,* not just conceptually, capable of making a life for you both and any children. him just wanting to be with you, or worse - simply agreeing to be with you....is not enough. that is the ground level. please do better!

“if you become a housewife they’re gonna cheat and you’re gonna get abandoned with nothing some day.”

has to be the biggest self projection ever. why do you automatically assume every relationship is going to go badly, and why do you feel the need to project your own fears onto other people who actually feel secure in their relationship/with their decision?
