I'm pretty sure you missed the sarcasm in the OP, but it won't matter how we can "handle ourselves" if our doctors can be jailed for 5 years for merely taking care of us when we face a dire situation around the time we do amniocentesis and get ultrasounds letting us know the status and health of our pregnancies.

GOP doesn't really care about helping us, they just want to appease the misogynistic idiots who vote for them and think a 20 week ban is a great idea, no matter how often sane, intelligent people tell them otherwise.
