Saying women can’t choose to have abortions unless we’re raped is telling us we don’t EARN autonomy over our own bodies until a man violates it.

Saying parents have a right to circumcise boys is telling boys and men that they don't have autonomy over their bodies, and that their autonomy can and will be violated.

@ttpphd @OhNoSheTwitnt Because an infant has autonomous decision-making power???

Infants have a right to bodily integrity, male or female. A person doesn't need to have decision making capacity for it to be immoral to cut their genitals.

@ttpphd I don’t disagree. But if you’re saying a male infant, who is incapable of making such decisions for himself, should have bodily autonomy, than certainly a female who is mature enough to become pregnant should also have that autonomy.

Yes. Abortion is health care. I am for free abortion access, no limits. Banning abortion is a violation of autonomy. Autonomy is one of my core values (check out my profile page).
