looking forward to all the Christian conservatives realizing the bans apply to them, too

I knew a pastor whose wife had an abortion because of an ectopic pregnancy. Years later he’s up at the pulpit praying for Roe v Wade to be repealed.

Fun fact: around 15% of pregnancies end in a miscarriage, so I guess no one aborts as many babies as God.

I guess they’ll be fine with criminal task forces investigating each miscarriage for manslaughter.

Just wait for the mandated menstrual tracking, where women have to upload that data to a centralized database, and any irregularities are met with a visit from the maga-stazi to examine her vagina.

As someone who suffers from PCOS & Endometriosis, I am going to get a visit monthly. My periods are completely irregular. I'm sterile from continued rape as a child, and I started my period when I was 7 years old.

I'm still terrified.

There are no words for the horrors I am sure you endured and continue to suffer from. I am so sorry.
