men that don't r@pe women are not special. men that don't cheat are not special. men that treat women with equality are not special. men that cook in their homes and take care of the baby are not special. this is what a normal man should be like.
I believe that; If abortion is criminalized, men should lose the right to walk away from a pregnancy, too.
I watched my friend who was born to be a doctor lose her entire future to unwanted pregnancy. She was buried in biology books, top of her class, and ready to save lives. One failed contraceptive later, her world stopped.
The guy? He laughed, said "that's a you problem," blocked her number, and walked away into a bright, uninterrupted future.
She knew she couldn't survive medical school with an infant. But her parents, devout church workers, cornered her. To them, her dying dreams mattered less than their reputation in the congregation. They threatened her with damnation and absolute disownment until she broke.
The day she packed up her anatomy books and gave away her stethoscope was a funeral for the woman she was supposed to be.
Today, she works two exhausting retail jobs just to keep the lights on.
The guy who walked away is an architect traveling the world. His life didn't even hit a speed bump.
She carries the entire weight of a two-person mistake. You can’t force someone to give up their body and their future while the co-creator gets to just walk away.
@Garrett_Watts knew I’d look after them. This is me about 4 hours after finding him and realising he’s my chicken now lol
Please crown my courageous king 👑
Nobody talks about how exhausting it is to live in that space between “things will get better” and “I can’t handle this anymore.” It’s like your emotions are constantly swinging, leaving you both hopeful and defeated in the same day.
Trying to buy Christmas presents for people is so hard because I just keep seeing things for my baby instead 😭 does she need it? No. Is it in the basket? Yes!
Watching my baby sleep tonight with overwhelming guilt that so many parents can’t do the same and that she’s safe just because of where she was born. I feel sick after watching what just happened on the madleen
A year of no periods really messes you up because I’ve been so tired and sad and in pain like my whole body was shutting down and didn’t know why then realised oh yeah this happens every month lol
