My Grandfather built me a car entirely out of wood

It had wooden seats, wooden doors, wooden steering wheel, wooden floors and a wooden engine. Unfortunately when I tried to start it, it wooden work.

One of the biggest power moves I have here in the midwest when someone is being racist, sexist, homophobic is that I tell them that I’ll pray for them so that god can grace them with empathy, or that “I feel sorry the devil has made his home in your heart” cause you have not felt joy until you’ve flipped the script on a suburban house mom or an old racist white man.  The joy of watching their face in shock and confusion while they’re called out in Christian Standards the same way they try to cover for their homophobia is amazing.  100% suggest it, at the very least it gets them to shut the fuck up.

Works wonders in the South, too.

And if they start to stutter and quote some cherry-picked Bible verse at you, come back at them with “yes, even the Devil can quote scripture, but that doesn’t mean he understands it. I’ll pray for God to grant you understanding in the fullness of His word.”

In light of recent events, I would like to remind everyone that the correct pro choice talking point that will actually pull people to our side is NOT whether a fetus is human or not because you'll never win. The correct argument is how the state should never have the power to force you to give up physical autonomy for the sake of any other being.

[roach-works]

if the state can't force you to be an organ donor after your death, it shouldn't be able to force you to be an organ donor before your death. if you can't be forced to give even a pint of blood for half an hour, you shouldn't be forced to give up your uterus for nine months. if your alcoholic father can't demand you give him half your liver, if the red cross can't just demand your blood, if those wig making companies can't demand your hair, no one should be able to demand your reproductive system.

even if a fertilized egg is exactly as much of a person as a twenty one year old citizen, no one else in the world should have a legal right to make use of your body parts without your express consent.

@spoofymcgee that is a great question!

I always explain that Consent to 1 thing with 1 person for 1 period of time is NOT consent to a totally different thing with a totally different person for a totally different period of time.

If I consent to have sex with my husband tonight, that is NOT consent to make out with his friend tomorrow. If I consent to donate blood to the hospital today, that doesn't imply consent to have my kidney harvested by a neighbor tomorrow. If I consent to have a professional at the tattoo parlor pierce my ears today, that doesnt mean Ive consented to having my tongue pierced by an employee at Claires tomorrow. Consent is specific to person, act, and time. Consent to sex with a romantic partner today is not consent to carry a totally different person *inside my body* for 40 weeks.

Even if consent to one act with one person coukd be transfered to another person and another act, consent can be revoked at any time, even during the act, and once that is communicated, it must be respected. You can call something off, whether it's sex or blood donation or getting your ears peirced, even if you've already begun. The same is true for carrying a pregnancy to term.

[niamhuncensored]

Good response, although I think it might still falter when the opposition considers pregnancy to be a reasonably expected result of sex. Consent to one thing is also consent to associated actions.

For example, consent to driving is also consent to wearing a seatbelt, obeying traffic laws, and restricting your drinking. Consent to blood donation is also consent to tests being run on that blood and that blood being given to anyone, even someone you may not have wanted to save, if given the choice.

How would you respond to this argument?

(to be clear, I am on your side and playing devil's advocate in good faith.)

[fandomsandfeminism]

Is the fetus a *person* in this situation, or is the fetus some kind of secondary situation that always follows?

Because I ALWAYS have to wear my seat belt, by law. But there is no law that I HAVE to get pregnant if I have sex. So unless *not getting pregnant* is now a crime like not wearing a seatbelt, that analogy falls apart.

The "who the blood goes to" fails an analogy because once the blood has been donated, its not yours anymore. You don't have to consent to things that *used* to be yours. It's not part of your body any longer, so it's no longer under the umbrella of your bodily autonomy.

I've seen people compare pregnancy to consenting to a risk- like getting injured in a car accident. But if the fetus is a RISK, akin to an injury, then you can deal with it like any accidental injury. You don't have to just let your arm heal on its own. You can get a cast.

But they'll insist the fetus is a person, and by definition, not the person you included in the original consent. (How could you, when they didn't exist.) And if the fetus is a person, it has to follow all the person rules.
