I am a person. Just like all of you. I have aspirations, a future, a family, hobbies. Most importantly I have a life. The only thing that sets me apart from you is that I am a female.
I can carry a child. That somehow makes me lesser than. That somehow gives you the impression I can't make educated decisions. That I don't have a right to ****** autonomy, Even though I am a human being. Just like you.
Taking away the choice to carry out an unwanted pregnancy Takes away our freedom. If history has taught us anything, Those who have their rights stripped are the ones who fight the hardest.
This is an attack on our rights as human beings. We deserve to have a choice in what happens in our own bodies. We alone decide that. Not you.
You do not get to have that choice. We are humans, just like you. Don't let the fact that we can bring a life into this world demean us because if you do, We won't stop fighting until we get the rights to our bodies back.
This was inspired by my personal reaction to the passage of the Heartbeat bill. My heart reaches out to every woman affected by this, and I hope you are safe.
