If abortion is criminalized, men should lose the right to walk away from a pregnancy too. You can’t force someone to carry a child and let the other parent off the hook. Responsibility doesn’t get a free pass.
I have a boyfriend. He works a 9-5, so he sleeps on a regular schedule. He signed off our conversation tonight by saying, "I know you're going to stay up all night writing, so feel free to use my text message inbox as a journal. I want to know what goes on in your mind at night.”
I texted him, “How was your day today?” and he sent me a 10-minute voice note telling me everything.
And that basically sums up the kind of person I want by my side. Stop normalizing disinterest—you’re turning yourselves into idiots.
