My classmate was raped on her way back home from university and got pregnant, but couldn’t get an abortion due to the laws. She had to drop out of university where she was studying medicine. Because of pregnancy and childbirth expenses, she couldn’t continue her studies, left college, started working at a coffee shop, lost the fun of her early twenties, and lost the chance to attend international medical conferences she once dreamt of… all just to give birth to a child she never wanted.
People say, “What if the baby you abort grows up and cures cancer?”
Okay — but what if the 19-year-old you deny an abortion to grows up and cures cancer?
Now she can’t afford to get an education. Instead, she has to take care of a baby. What about her? An actual living human being???
“Abortion ends potential life”… So do property disputes, war, and genocide. You only seem to care about lives when women don’t give birth to them.
@pennyelizabeths They call this a study but it's a questionnaire at best, with people self reporting. I personally like scientific data that can be replicated, but that's just me I guess
she has 3 university degrees, she’s a businesswoman and ceo, she got married in her 30s (to a man 5 years younger than her), had kids in her mid 30s… he entire life is the result of feminism
Blackface historically involves white performers caricaturing Black people in minstrel shows, perpetuating racist stereotypes and oppression. Whiteface, like in comedy or clown makeup, lacks this systemic history of mockery and power imbalance, as white people haven't faced equivalent marginalization. The contexts and impacts differ significantly.
International Rightoidism has gone so far that now we have Latinas for Trump travelling to the UK to rant in thick Hispanic accents about how England Has Fallen to Muslim rapists. While people wave German flags in the audience.
