Today on the first day of Women’s History Month I learned that after no fault divorce was finally legalized in 1970, female suicide rates dropped 20%🤯
The "strong 1950s family unit" that the GOP is nostalgic about ignores record high female suicide, suffocating domestic violence, & zero female financial autonomy.
But maybe that's GOP's goal all along?🤔

In the 1950's, women were often misdiagnosed as "insane" if they reported abuse & were involuntarily committed to psychiatric institutions.
Some women were diagnosed as "promiscuous" & involuntarily treated with shock therapy or lobotomies.
Psychiatrists routinely broke confidentiality to a woman's abuser.
Incest, rape, child abuse & violence were routinely ignored by police & society.
Yes, GOP billionaires will return women to these conditions to keep power in a heartbeat.
