I have anti-choicers contacting me, apologizing for their more violent supporters that I meet while clinic escorting. They’re promising that most anti-choicers are peaceful. But the violence I face isn’t just physical. It can be verbal and emotional. It can also be institutional through the legislation they support and manipulate.

Anti-choicers try to guilt and shame people who have had or will get abortions.  They want to strip away our bodily autonomy. They want to force people to stay pregnant and give labor against their will (this is considered a form of torture). This is all abuse. The entire movement to end reproductive rights is violent.

How soon after a miscarriage or abortion will a pregnancy test show up negative?

After a miscarriage or abortion, a urine pregnancy test can show up positive even as long as 2 weeks later.

Urine pregnancy tests just turn positive if your hcg hormone level is above a certain cut off, and different tests use different cut offs.  Because of that, some are more sensitive than others, showing positive earlier in a pregnancy and longer after the pregnancy stops.  Getting the regular, store-brand (or even dollar store) pregnancy tests is your best bet.  Expect them to show positive 2 weeks after unprotected sex and up until 2 weeks after a miscarriage or abortion.

There is no war on women

There is no war on women

GOP presidential candidate Dr. Ben Carson dismissed the Democrat mantra of a “war on women,” saying instead that he thinks the real war should be focused on “what’s inside of women.” “They tell you that there’s a war on women,” Carson stated at a rally. “There is no war on women — there may be a war on what’s inside of women, but there is no war on women in this country,” he said, in reference to…

The Distortion of Truth To an Accepting Culture

The Distortion of Truth To an Accepting Culture

I found myself in a state of shock for an instant, but then remembered quickly that nothing should surprise me anymore. Even logic has found itself thrown out the window. This culture we live in around the globe has become so illogical, uncaring, and hideously distorted all while claiming the exact opposite … in the name of peace and tolerance.

So what began as shock, but within seconds turned…

The Senate feed is back!

"Despite its protestations that abortion is only a small part of its services, Planned Parenthood has increased its number of abortions for 15 straight years. During that time, it has gone from committing 9.3 percent of all abortions in the United States to committing 27.5 percent. Planned Parenthood received $349.6 million in taxpayer funding (government grants and contracts) in 2008, and at the end of the year had $85 million in profits. Everybody goes to clinics, to hospitals, to doctors, and so on. Some people go to Planned Parenthood. But you don’t have to go to Planned Parenthood to get your cholesterol or your blood pressure checked. If you want an abortion, you go to Planned Parenthood, and that’s well over 90 percent of what Planned Parenthood does." This was said recently by Senator Jon Kyl of Arizona, he stated this with facts to back him up. That statistic you provided is false. Also, my faith is the center of everything I do, it is my moral code, when I am arguing something that is unmoral my religion will come. I can quote the Bible if I want to: Freedom of speech and religion. And the Taliban does justify their actions by their religion, but their religion is based on hate and violence, mine is based on love.

. . . I'm in a mix of laughing, anger, and sadness reading this girl's argument. 

Time to tear it apart. I need to get to my artwork.
