I am seldom overtly political here, but I want to say a thing out loud.

A right to bodily autonomy isn't conditioned on being a rape or incest survivor. We must not create special circumstances when we recognize a woman's right to avail herself of family planning services or medical care.

It's her body. The decisions are hers, in consultation she takes with her doctor, and influenced, to the extent she elects, by her partner.

That's it.

Identical philosophy applies to trans folks.

@mikeolson You can't own women.

Has to be distinct because "you can't own people" is ALSO controversial and there are those who don't allow as how women are people.
