She married a liberal and lives near his family, so she’s getting a huge dose of woke liberalism. I’ve watched her progress down the proverbial dark hole after being raised in a conservative family.
And she was upset last night about Roe Vs. Wade. And we were texting and she said, “this is a freedom some people no longer have access to!”
And I said, “EXACTLY! Although abortion is not a freedom I approve of, I want you to understand that since 911, many of our freedoms have been removed, vanished, banned. This is something I Desperately need you to understand! Freedom of speech? Gone! Freedom of choice over our own bodies with vaccinations—-gone! Freedom to bare arms? Going! I want you to understand the truth of our times through your own lens of what freedom means! And now you do.”
And guys, she got it. She finally understood. But she had to have a lightbulb moment in her own way, in her own time.
It’s possible to redpill by discussing Roe.
You handled that so much better than I did. I jusr told my liberal niece how wrong she was. I hit a nerve because all of the sudden my sister texted me asking me to stop arguing with her. She was brainwashed by college. I told her i stand by what I said and then I posted the satanic temple statement and said you know you're on the right side of the issue when.... so the next family get together should be fun!
I know what you mean. I am not looking forward to vaca with family members who support abortion and all things liberal. SIL posted that yesterday was a sad day b/c women's "privileges" were taken away. Who looks at killing a child as a privilege? That's just SICK!
Right? And they are spreading lies about dangerous eptopic pregnancies or IVF procedures being effected in order to rile up clowns . So dumb!
I can’t even with the ectopic argument anymore! I’m so done with it and all the idiotic people, even some on our own side, who start talking about abortions when the life of the mother is in danger and using ectopic pregnancies as their example. For the love, everyone on all sides, y’all sound like morons!! An abortion is the intentional killing of a preborn child!! The procedures that are performed when a woman has an ectopic pregnancy are not the same thing! Stop calling it an abortion! 🤯
A salpingostomy or a salpingectomy is performed depending on the amount of bleeding and damage done to the Fallopian tube. A baby literally can’t grow in a Fallopian tube and survive, that’s not the purpose of our Fallopian tubes, that’s why we have uteruses. Not to mention the mother will die as well if the ectopic pregnancy isn’t removed. It is considered an abnormality just like any other miscarriage and the procedures used to remove this particular pathology have never historically been referred to as an abortion..ever! That’s why they have different medical terms. Now sometimes they can give you a medication called methotrexate which basically dissolves the cells of the baby and some pro life advocates consider this not to be an acceptable form of dealing w/ an ectopic pregnancy and I can see their argument but I would still hesitate to classify it myself as having an abortion. But regardless, even if you took the option of the medication away, that still leaves two surgical procedures that have ALWAYS been available to women to remove an ectopic pregnancy and save their life.
I would say I don’t know how this fake information started about ectopic pregnancies being the same thing as having an abortion but we all know how amazing the left is at shaping the narrative and over the years everyone forgets that their narrative is actually false. 🤦🏼♀️ Yes, this is one of my major soap boxes! 😬😂🤷🏼♀️ Especially when I see people on our side misrepresenting the issue as well and not educating pro choicer’s on what happens with an ectopic procedure vs an actual abortion. Not one pro life person is advocating that women can no longer have a salpingostomy or a salpingectomy. We just don’t want you to intentionally kill your pre-born child that’s growing in your uterus where it’s supposed to be. It’s not rocket science. 🤷🏼♀️😬
We especially don’t want you to kill your clump of cells at 40 weeks as it has a head and two arms and a leg outside of the birth canal…but one leg is still inside…so MY BODY…MY CHOICE!
Also the “perinatal death” bill introduced in California saying that deaths won’t be investigated either 7 days post-partum, or 30 days post-partum, or whatever it says, is simply codifying infanticide. But…NOT MY BODY, BUT I STILL HAVE TO FEED IT, MY CHOICE seems to not have as many fans as they think it would have.
Ectopic pregnancies tend to be self-terminating in a surprise emergency that no one wanted. I've often wondered if early detection could lead to a chance at saving the baby by transplanting it--like IVF. And multiple IVF "successes" lead to suggesting selective abortion, but again, multiple births is a known risk and could be managed.
"I've often wondered if early detection could lead to a chance at saving the baby by transplanting it..."
I'm not a doctor, but I think blood type matching is a critical factor.
They never seem to think that the baby is female…and their abortion is taking away that small woman’s “privilege”. That aborted baby will never get to choose her own abortion!
Seriously, their arguments are so silly.
It’s not 1973 anymore. Women have lots of choices for reducing reproduction. Planned parenthood still gives out tons of birth control pills, condoms, implantable devices with hormones, spermicides, don’t they give plan b or the morning after pill? Isn’t the morning after pill almost like taking 3 or 4 birth control pills at once?
And condoms for men? Doesn’t anyone want to keep from getting herpes or some other STI?
Both men and women seem less fulfilled by the hook-up culture. Maybe everyone should start treating sex as something a bit more special than a late night Taco Bell run? You could even fall in love.
