This is what happens when bodily autonomy is seen as negotiable. When a system decides that a woman’s body, even in death, is up for debate. There is no dignity here. No consent. No justice. Just control.
Adriana Smith has been brain dead for over 90 days, but Georgia law requires doctors to keep her body alive because she’s pregnant. Her family says they’ve been stripped of medical decision-making and want people to understand the human toll of laws that ignore grief, choice, and dignity.
- Flowers must be a regular thing
- We must talk everyday
- Check in when you’re out (“just arrived”, “on my way home” etc)
- No exes that are friends
- Don’t move like a single man (online & outside)
- Plan dates (I hate a “we’ll see”)
Happy International Women’s Day to all the stubborn women!
To the survivors who were able to fight back
To the girls who challenge benevolent misogyny.
To the outspoken womanist & feminist
To the audacious woman
To girls who can’t be stopped
To the village of women who raise us❤️
