1. All forms of male and female contraceptives

are under attack by a male dominated Republican minority.

[Martin Eden]

2. Rethug policies increase abortions

Teach "abstinence only" sex education while defunding Planned Parenthood and making birth control more difficult to obtain.

[The Mouth]

9. Ronald Reagan made abortions

much easier to obtain. I think once they realized that certain demographics used abortion more readily than others, they were totally aboard with it. It's not a fetus issue, they care no more for the fetus than the disabled vet- it's a patriarchial control issue.

3. They know-- they just don't care. The point is not so much to stop abortions as to stop sex.

[erronis]

6. They are ok with sex but only when they are controlling it. Paying for it.

Demanding it.
Denying it.
Demeaning it.

For them sex is just another way to stoke their little egos.
Money, power, privilege.

Poor little mushrooms.

[Skittles]

16. it's not about stopping sex, it's about punishing women

if it was about sex, they'd be going ape-shit over boner pills

[Arkansas Granny]

4. Reducing unwanted pregnancies is the best way to reduce the number of abortions.

Pro-lifers won't accept that premise because it doesn't give them as much opportunity to control or shame women.

18. I agree with your point about the shaming.

How is any citizen of this country supposed to have any faith in a party that does things like this? Where has the Equal Rights for Women gone. We keep saying that we are a modernized country, that our technologies have brought us farther to making life better for us everyday. Well when we slip backward and let these idiots control our lives there is no better life.

5. Reproductive Justice for All!

Donate to Planned Parenthood, NOW, etc.

[world wide wally]

7. It's strictly about Republicans having the power to tell other people how to live and

What they can or cannot do.

[JI7]

8. it's not abortion they are concerned about. it's their wanting to control women

and keeping women down.

[Voltaire2]

10. They want to return women to the status

of property. They do not give a fuck about abortion.

[Wounded Bear]

11. Some good responses...

The aboriton issue was never about "babies." It was always about controlling and suppressing women.

[applegrove]

12. It is about the republicans controlling the religious and coralling them

every election to vote GOP.

[Wounded Bear]

13. It is certainly about Repubs using religious folks to consolidate their power...

[Ohiogal]

14. More access and widespread use of contraception

Greatly reduces the need for abortion! Why can’t they understand that ???

[applegrove]

15. Because the GOP needs many abortions so it will continue to be

an issue and religious folk will vote republican. If you reduce the abomination you can't manipulate with it so easily.

[Lucky Luciano]

17. Allowing birth control doesn't give MAGAts enough control over women's bodies. nt
