A uterus is an organ.
The meat of my body should be mine to use -or not- as I please. Kidneys, liver, lungs- noone else is owed those things for any reason.
@Ticketmaster Wild that the checkout click is counting down for fully 2 minutes and the field to enter my credit card info still hasn't loaded. Such bs.
