Boots ChantillyI think about this truth every day of my life. Every single day. #ReproductiveRightsAreHumanRights #AbortionIsEssential
@CharJTF Oh, I’m sorry—but I’m so glad you were able to access the care you needed. Some ppl do pregnancy rly well. Some ppl don’t. & like you, some do pregnancy rly well—until that minute they don’t. Which means each of us must be free to choose whether or not we wish to risk our health, our careers, our education, our financial security, our relationships, our bodies, our futures, our lives. 😔 #AbortionIsEssential
I couldn’t afford a pregnancy (much less another child), nor was there any way I could physically handle pregnancy or childbirth.
But most importantly, I didn’t WANT to.
& no one—including me, including you—should be forced to grow & bear unwanted babies.
No one.
NO ONE.
EVER.
Bodily autonomy is a fundamental human right. Period, end of conversation. /end #OurAbortionStories #WeTestify #AbortionIsAHumanRight #abortionisessential
This is not a child. About a quarter of Americans will insist to you that it is, because they think that’s an effective strategy for stripping human rights from more than half our population, but underneath their lies, they know. We all know. This. Is. Not. A. Child. #ProChoiceIsProLife #AbortionIsAHumanRight #AbortionIsEssential
But the following poem--written by a fellow adoptee--sums up my feelings on the subject beautifully.
"If she had aborted me, her life would have been free
of the hard pit inside her
the secret of me.
And I would have been free to become a flower, a lizard, a redwood tree."
Not every egg must become an embryo. & not every embryo must become a person. That's reality. That's life. & that's OK. #AbortionIsEssential #ReproductiveRightsAreHumanRights /end

I’ve always wondered how much you have to hate children to wish them born to ppl who don’t love or want them. #ProChoiceIsProLife #AbortionIsEssential #AdopteeVoices
It’s not a decision to judge OR to attempt to control. Whether a pregnancy is a risk to life/health or not. Some ppl get pregnant accidentally—& SIMPLY DON’T WANT TO GROW & BEAR A CHILD. That’s a valid a reason for #abortion. Pregnancy, childbirth, parenthood—they’re all HUGE. Only the pregnant person knows whether they’re up to them or not. It’s their decision. Mind your own damn business. Period. #AbortionIsEssential
